British Gear And Equipment Maker RST Launches Shortie Leather Gloves

Dressing up in full gear, especially heavy duty gear specific for sportbike riders, can be extremely uncomfortable during summer. Leathers tend to be extremely hot, and sweating buckets whilst donning your favorite leather kit isn’t just uncomfortable, but will also be a hassle to wash once you finish riding. Luckily, there are tons of breathable leather and textile gear options out there which are designed specifically for summertime use.

RST, a British company, is introducing a new pair of gloves to its line for motorcyclists searching for sporty style equipment who aim to hit the road this summer while avoiding heat exhaustion. The Shorties are composed of leather sections on the back of the hand and on the palm, with many perforations on the top to enable air to enter through. The palm contains Amara inserts for a better grip on the handlebars and a natural tactile experience while toggling the bike's settings.
