Motorcross and Enduro Gloves

Touch is everything

In motocross, the rider constantly uses the clutch, throttle, and front brake, while firmly holding the handlebars through ruts and jumps. The cross glove prioritises sensitivity: a thin palm, often made of synthetic leather like Clarino, with no bothersome seams, and a back made of stretchy, breathable fabric. Curved fingers reduce forearm fatigue.

The rest of the outfit

Cross outfits also come in:

• Jersey.
• Pants.
• Underwear.

All the outfits are gathered on the cross outfits page.

Lightweight or reinforced

Lightweight gloves, like the Troy Lee Designs Air or Fly Racing Radium, which are very breathable, are favoured in hot weather. The reinforced models, like the Kenny Titanium with D3O protection or the Troy Lee Designs GP Pro, provide better protection for the fingers when off-roading, against branches and stones. The Alpinestars Corozal Drystar, which is waterproof, is great for wet outings. The French brands Five, Kenny, and Shot are top choices for off-roading.

For young riders

Young riders can find models that fit them: Troy Lee Designs Air Richter, Alpinestars Radar, or Pull-in Race. A glove should be fitted, with no creases in the palm that can cause blisters, and no space at the fingertips. It should be hand-washed in warm water and left to air dry, never on a radiator, to keep the palm in good condition.

Frequently asked questions

Why do cross gloves have such a thin palm?

A thin palm, often made of synthetic leather like Clarino with no bothersome seams, gives maximum sensitivity on the levers and throttle. This allows the rider to maintain precise control in ruts and jumps.

Cross gloves with or without shells?

Lightweight gloves without shells prioritise touch in motocross. In enduro, where branches and stones threaten the fingers, reinforcements on the knuckles are welcome, in addition to hand guards.

What size of cross gloves should I choose?

The glove should fit the hand snugly without creases in the palm that could cause blisters. Measure the hand circumference at the knuckles and check the brand's size guide; a glove that is too large affects sensitivity.

How to choose cross gloves for children?

Select a junior model with shorter fingers and a thin palm, suitable for smaller hands. Several gloves from our selection come in children's sizes, with the same design as the adult models.

How to wash cross gloves?

Wash them by hand in warm soapy water, or machine wash on a delicate cycle if the manufacturer allows it. Let them air dry, away from a heat source, so the palm remains supple.
