Motorcycle Gloves Sizing & Buying Guide http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle-gl... Motorcycle gloves are an essential part of motorcycling gear that provide protection from injury and the elements, improve grip, and reduce fatigue. Motorcycle gloves are specifically designed for motorcycle use that include abrasion resistant materials, impact protection, weather protection when needed and securely attach to your hands. To determine glove size, most glove manufactures use two types of measurements to determine the proper size. The most common type of measurement is the circumference of the hand, just below the knuckles. The other common measurement is across the knuckles at the widest point of the hand. Using those measurements in conjunction with the manufactures size chart is the best way to find the right size glove. There are many types of motorcycle gloves made for different types of riding from race or track use to motocross to sport touring. The type of motorcycle and the type of riding a motorcyclist does often dictates the best glove for the application. A full gauntlet glove will offer the best protection and range from very technical race gloves that have lots of external hard parts for high-speed crashes to all-weather touring gloves to keep hands warm and dry. Short gloves offer the convenience of easy on and off, but don't offer the same amount of protection as a full gauntlet glove. With an ATGATT frame of mind, wearing a motorcycle glove designed for motorcycle use every time you ride will ensure the best level of protection while riding, or worse, in a crash.
