Hands take the first contact in many falls, and they also operate the throttle, brake and clutch. That makes glove fit and construction a practical choice, not a styling extra. The is a replica inspired by the Rizla Suzuki racing look, made to order and hand-stitched by Leather Collection.
Key Takeaways
- The product page lists 0.8-0.9 mm cowhide, hand-stitched with nylon thread.
- A TPU knuckle protector and TPU sliders on the palm, thumb and fingers are listed.
- Pre-curved fingers and a Velcro wrist strap are described.
- The colors are fluorescent yellow and sky blue; it is a replica inspired by the team look, not team merchandise.
What Racing-Style Gloves Do
A rider's hands meet the road first in many slides, so gloves are designed around three jobs: resisting abrasion, spreading impact over the knuckles and back of the hand, and staying on the hand when it matters. A glove that does not fit can fail at all three, so a snug fit with no loose material at the fingertips matters.
- Abrasion: the leather outer takes the slide.
- Impact: rigid protectors over the knuckles and sliders over contact areas.
- Retention: a closed wrist strap helps keep the glove in place.
Construction Listed on the Product Page
The gloves use 0.8-0.9 mm cowhide with hand-stitched seams and high-strength nylon thread. Leather reinforcement sits between the thumb and index finger. The leather is thinner than the cowhide used in a race suit, which leaves more feel at the throttle and brake lever.
Protection and Fit
A TPU knuckle protector with integrated flexible knuckles is listed, along with TPU sliders on the palm, thumb and fingers mounted on poly-foam. Pre-curved palm and fingers match a hand that is already holding the grip, which reduces fatigue over a long session. A Velcro wrist strap secures the glove. Sizes are listed from XS to 3XL.
The Suzuki collection also covers other styles, and a Ducati racing glove is shown in for a comparison of color schemes.
The Rizla Suzuki Look
The color scheme is fluorescent yellow and sky blue, taken from the Rizla Suzuki team colors. These gloves are a replica inspired by that look and are not affiliated with Suzuki or the team.
Choosing Gloves for Your Riding
Race-style gloves with hard protectors suit track and sport riding. For relaxed commuting or touring, riders often prefer a longer cuff or a more flexible knuckle design. Try the gloves with your jacket or suit sleeve, because the cuff must close without bunching.
