Refined Urban Styling with Maximum Airflow

The Merlin Griffin Urban Gloves are designed for riders seeking a balance of understated style and high-ventilation performance. Constructed from a blend of perforated goat leather and strong polyester air mesh, these gloves offer significant airflow for warm-weather riding. Integrated D3O® knuckle protection and padded scaphoid zones ensure essential safety without compromising the glove's lightweight, street-ready profile.

Key Features

• Perforated Goat Leather: High-grade leather on the palm and knuckles for abrasion resistance and breathability.
• Polyester Air Mesh: Strong mesh panels on the fingers to maximise cooling airflow in hot conditions.
• D3O® Knuckle Armour: Pre-curved soft knuckle protection provides superior impact absorption and flexibility.
• Touch Screen Compatibility: Conductive digital touch points on the index finger and thumb for easy device operation.
• Scaphoid Protection: Padded reinforcement at the base of the palm for additional impact safety.
• Velcro® Cuff Closure: Secure wrap-around strap for a precise, adjustable, and easy fit.
• Reflective Safety Piping: Anthracite piping improves rider visibility during low-light urban transit.
• Pre-Curved Fingers: Ergonomically shaped to reduce hand fatigue and improve grip comfort on the bars.
• Premium Trim: Leather pipe trim on the cuff and strap edges for enhanced durability and a refined finish.

Optimised for Summer Urban Riding

The Griffin glove features a short-cuff design that integrates seamlessly with riding shirts, hoodies, or lightweight urban jackets. Merlin has utilised a solid knuckle mould overlay to provide a structured, protective look while maintaining the glove's low-profile aesthetic. This combination of lightweight materials and technical armour ensures the glove remains flexible and comfortable during daily commutes or casual weekend rides in peak summer heat.
