Every rider knows the feeling — cold, wet hands locked around the handlebars, fumbling to check your phone at a red light without pulling off your gloves in the rain. These Waterproof Motorcycle Riding Gloves are built for Canadian riding conditions: full waterproof protection, thickened cotton warmth, hard shell impact protection on every knuckle, and two-finger touchscreen capability so your phone and GPS stay accessible without ever taking the gloves off.

Why They Stand Out

• ✓ 100% waterproof outer layer — the water-repellent fabric outer keeps your hands completely dry in heavy rain; confirmed to handle several hours of normal rain and up to one hour of heavy rain without moisture penetrating through
• ✓ Hard shell knuckle guard + finger joint protection — a rigid hard plastic shell covers the knuckles and a series of individual protection blocks cover each finger joint, absorbing impact and abrasion force in the event of a fall
• ✓ Silicone anti-slip palm — textured silicone on the palm improves grip on the handlebars without requiring you to clench — reduces hand fatigue on long rides and keeps control consistent on wet roads
• ✓ Two-finger touchscreen — forefinger and thumb — both the index finger and thumb have built-in conductive material so you can operate your phone, GPS, and car touch screens without removing the gloves; most riding gloves offer only one finger
• ✓ Thickened cotton lining with plus-velvet inner — the thick cotton and velvet interior traps warmth against your skin in cold and snowy conditions, making these suitable for winter riding where standard gloves fail
• ✓ 10.5cm lengthened cuff with wrist elastic band — the extended cuff seals over your jacket sleeve with an elastic wrist band and adjustable strap, blocking cold air and wind from getting inside — longer than the standard 9cm cuffs found on most riding gloves
• ✓ Reflective stripe for night visibility — a reflective strip on the back of the glove catches headlights from other vehicles when you signal or gesture, adding a layer of visibility during night riding
• ✓ Pleated stretch panels on the back — elasticated pleated panels allow the glove to flex and stretch naturally with your hand movements, preventing restriction when gripping, braking, or clutching

Where to Use Them

• → Year-round road riding — waterproof outer and warm cotton lining make these a practical choice from spring through to late autumn in Canadian conditions
• → Winter motorcycle commuting — the thickened cotton lining and windproof extended cuff handle cold morning commutes when standard gloves leave your hands freezing at speed
• → Off-road and motocross — the hard shell knuckle guard and finger joint protection blocks are specifically designed for impact protection during off-road riding and racing
• → Long-distance touring — the anti-slip palm reduces hand fatigue and the touchscreen fingers keep navigation accessible without stopping to remove gloves
• → Rainy day riding — tested waterproof performance handles both light and heavy rain so you are not caught out on wet roads with wet hands
• → Night riding — the reflective stripe makes hand signals and movements visible to drivers approaching from behind

How They Work

1. Waterproofing: The outer layer is constructed from a water-repellent fabric that causes water to bead and run off the surface rather than soaking through. The thickened cotton lining is kept dry inside this outer shell. Note: the cotton lining itself is not waterproof — the protection comes from the outer layer.
2. Impact protection system: The hard plastic shell sits over the knuckle area and a series of individual protection blocks are positioned over each finger joint. On impact, these rigid shells absorb and distribute force away from the bones underneath, reducing injury risk from falls and impacts.
3. Windproof seal: The 10.5cm cuff extends over your jacket sleeve and is cinched down using both a wrist elastic band and an adjustable strap. This dual-closure system creates a seal that prevents cold air from travelling up the sleeve opening, which is the primary cause of cold hands at speed.

How to Use

1. Before putting on, check the size chart — measure your hand width and length against the palm of your hand to confirm the correct size (see size guide below)
2. Slide your hand into the glove and seat each finger fully into the fingertips — the pleated back panels will stretch to accommodate your hand shape
3. Pull the extended cuff down over your jacket sleeve as far as possible — this seal is what keeps cold air out at speed
4. Fasten the wrist elastic band first, then tighten the adjustable strap to your preferred fit — snug but not restrictive
5. Test the touchscreen function on your phone before riding — press firmly with the forefinger or thumb tip on the screen
6. In rain, the outer fabric will repel water — avoid submerging the gloves in standing water as prolonged submersion is beyond their design scope
7. After wet rides, allow gloves to air dry naturally at room temperature — do not use direct heat sources to dry
8. Tip: If you are between sizes, size up — the thickened lining reduces interior space compared to standard gloves, and a slightly larger fit is more comfortable on long rides

Care and Maintenance

• ✓ Hand wash only in cool water with mild detergent — do not machine wash as this can damage the hard shell protection components and waterproof outer layer
• ✓ Air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat — do not tumble dry or use a radiator as heat degrades the waterproof treatment
• ✓ After washing, allow to dry completely before storing — storing damp gloves can cause the cotton lining to develop odour
• ✓ Inspect the hard shell and finger protection blocks periodically — if cracked or broken after a fall, replace the gloves as protection may be compromised
• ✓ Store flat or hanging — avoid compressing the hard shell components for extended periods
