Alpinestars SP-8 V3 Gloves – Full Gauntlet Leather, CE-Certified, Race-Inspired Fit

Premium sport riding gloves that blend protection, comfort, and real-world practicality

Engineered for riders who demand premium materials and thoughtful construction, the Alpinestars SP-8 V3 gloves pair a full-grain goat leather exterior with a multi-panel design that remains supple as it protects. The result is a glove that feels break-in comfortable from day one while delivering durable abrasion resistance on longer rides.

The heart of the protection lies in the MotoGP-derived dual-density SP knuckle system, a rugged shield that flexes with your hand and responds to impact without compromising grip or feel. A reinforced palm and strategically placed padding on high-wear zones contribute to a balanced sense of security during aggressive cornering or light contact with the road.

Comfort and control come from an anatomically profiled shape that follows the natural curve of the hand. Accordion stretch panels at the fingers and thumb support aggressive riding moves, while perforated leather zones and ventilation panels maximize airflow to help keep hands cooler in warm weather. An ergonomic stretch wrist insert ensures a secure, personalized fit that stays comfortable over hours of riding.

Practical features add everyday value. Touchscreen-compatible fingertips let you answer calls or use GPS without removing the gloves. A pre-shaped finger construction, a secure hook-and-loop cuff, and a modern black finish make the SP-8 V3 a versatile choice for canyon carving, track days, or spirited weekend rides.
