It goes without saying that safety regulations surrounding bikes and gear are much stricter in Europe than they are in the U.S. I mean, how often do we see so-called squids popping wheelies up and down the interstate with nothing more than a tank top and shorts on? Over in Europe, everything has to be regulated – from the safety equipment on the bikes, to the gear riders wear from head to toe.
It's not surprising, really, that motorcycle gear and equipment makers have been working hard to make their specialized equipment blend in with regular street wear. After all, not everyone rides their bikes for the sole purpose of enjoyment. When it comes to the essentials – gloves, helmets, and boots, comfort is usually the name of the game, and is given as much importance as safety. That being said, French gear and equipment manufacturer Segura is known the world over for its protective, stylish, and comfortable wares; the latest of which comes to us in the form of the Eden summer gloves.
