This sale collection features a range of MTB gloves designed for different riding styles and conditions. You'll find full-finger gloves for trail and enduro riding, lightweight options for cross-country, and durable models for downhill and aggressive terrain. The collection includes gloves with varying levels of protection, from minimalist designs for maximum bar feel to heavily armored options with knuckle and finger protection.
The collection includes gloves designed for various weather conditions. Lightweight, breathable models work best for warm weather and high-intensity riding, while some styles offer water-resistant materials for damp conditions. For optimal performance, consider the season and climate where you'll be riding most frequently. Check individual product specifications for material composition and weather-specific features like moisture-wicking fabrics or reinforced palms for durability.
MTB gloves should fit snugly without restricting movement or circulation. Measure the circumference of your hand around the knuckles (excluding the thumb) and refer to the size chart on each product page. A proper fit means the glove conforms to your hand shape without excess material bunching at the fingertips or palm. The closure system should secure comfortably at the wrist without being too tight. If you're between sizes, consider your preference for bar feel—smaller for maximum sensitivity, larger for comfort on longer rides.
Alpinestars MTB gloves utilize advanced technical materials engineered for durability and performance. Common materials include synthetic leather and clarino for palm construction, offering excellent grip and abrasion resistance. Stretch fabrics on the back of the hand provide flexibility and breathability, while reinforced fingertips and knuckle areas may feature additional protective materials. Many models incorporate moisture-wicking fabrics to manage perspiration during intense riding, and touchscreen-compatible fingertips allow device use without removing gloves.
Proper care maintains glove performance and durability. Hand wash with mild soap and cold water, then air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage technical materials and protective components. After muddy rides, rinse gloves promptly to prevent dirt from breaking down materials. Store gloves in a cool, dry place with fingers straightened to maintain shape. Regular cleaning prevents odor buildup and keeps grip surfaces effective.
