There are more choices for comfortable winter motorcycling every year, and the new LS2 Snow Gloves are some of the latest additions to pick from. Coming from the firm better known for manufacturing helmets, they’re designed to be a light and flexible option for riding in cold and wet weather.
The specifications start with a tough textile outer shell, and a Hipora waterproof, windproof and breathable membrane, along with a Velcro flap adjustment at the cuff to create a tight seal around the sleeves of your jacket, and a wrist strap to help keep everything snug and secure.
Fairly standard for winter motorcycle gloves, and you also get some ‘power stretch’ leather at the fingers and wrist to help you keep a close grip over the controls of your bike. A Clear Vision visor wipe on each index finger is a nice touch to help you keep your view clear on the move. And those fingers also get a touch-screen compatible section, so you can operate devices without having to remove your gloves.
As well as the weather protection, you also get KP1-rated knuckle armour, TPR protection at the fingers, and reinforcement for the palm and finger sidewalls to help keep your hands safe in the event of an accident. And there’s a palm slider to help keep your wrist intact.
So the LS2 Snow Gloves are a reasonable option for winter motorcycling, with competitve features for the very reasonable price of £59.99. You can find them in sizes S-2XL in a choice of Black, Black and Green or Black and Grey.
