Overview
The Alpinestars GP Tech v2 Gloves represent the pinnacle of racing protection and performance. Engineered with a focus on unrivalled flexibility and race-proven control, these gloves feature an innovative seamless, over-injected, dual-density ergonomic knuckle that delivers total coverage and Level 2 impact protection. The construction utilizes a premium leather backhand integrated with Kevlar® stretch material, ensuring optimal dexterity and freedom of movement while reducing hand fatigue during intense riding.
Safety is paramount with the inclusion of ARshield layers across the backhand, landing zones, and fingertips for superior abrasion resistance. A viscoelastic layer on the backhand and fingers provides additional impact absorption, while the Alpinestars race finger bridge prevents finger roll and separation during a slide. The palm is crafted with a high-performance construction—featuring either kangaroo or goat leather—and includes a stretch insert for enhanced abrasion resistance in key zones.
Advanced technical features include the new GP DFS (Dynamic Friction Shield) cuff, which provides impact protection and friction control in a lightweight, ergonomically optimized component. Over-injected fingertip sliders, a palm slider, and side hand reinforcements provide comprehensive shielding. For a precision fit, the gloves utilize a dual closure system and external finger seams that combine the perfect blend of feel and flexibility. Minimal stitching throughout the design increases comfort and significantly reduces the risk of failure under mechanical stress.
