Lightweight Summer Protection, Sport-Focused Comfort

The Macna Octar 2.0 is a lightweight textile glove designed for summer road riding, combining flexible materials with advanced impact protection. Engineered with a technical mix of Neoprene, Spandex, and Nubuck, these gloves provide a precise fit and high levels of tactile feedback for sport and commuter riders. Macna has integrated proprietary safety technologies, including the RISC knuckle and palm protectors, to ensure rider safety without compromising the glove's agile and breathable feel.

Key Features

• Armax RISC Palm: High-performance palm slider designed to reduce friction and absorb impact energy during a slide.
• RISC Knuckle: Impact-resistant knuckle guard provides robust protection for the top of the hand against strikes.
• Ergothumb: Construction method where the thumb and index finger share a single panel to eliminate seams and pressure points.
• TPR Finger Protection: Thermoplastic rubber reinforcements on the fingers for added abrasion resistance and impact shielding.
• Grip Print: Enhanced texture applied to the palm to ensure a secure and consistent hold on the handlebars.
• Adjustable Wrist Strap: Strong hook-and-loop closure system allows for a customised and secure fit around the wrist.
• EVA Thumb: Soft, impact-absorbing foam reinforcement positioned specifically to protect the thumb area.
• Summer Optimised: Lightweight textile construction that prioritises flexibility and comfort during hot weather riding.

Materials & Construction

The Octar 2.0 utilises a sophisticated blend of materials to balance durability with daily comfort.

This combination results in a glove that feels broken-in from the first ride, effectively minimising hand fatigue during long commutes or spirited weekend sessions.
