Premium Protection with Kangaroo Leather Performance

The Merlin Mahala Raid Gloves are a high-specification touring glove designed for riders seeking a balance of lightweight construction and superior abrasion resistance. Featuring a kangaroo leather palm for enhanced tactile feedback and strength, these gloves incorporate SuperFabric reinforcements and D3O® armour to ensure rider safety across varied terrains. The mid-length cuff design and moisture-wicking polyester lining make them a versatile choice for all-season road riding.

• SuperFabric Reinforcement: Applied to key impact areas to offer exceptional abrasion resistance in a slide.
• Punched Leather Panels: Strategic perforations across the leather improve breathability and airflow during warmer rides.
• Digital Touch Tip: Conductive material on both index fingers and thumbs allows for seamless smartphone and GPS operation.
• External Finger Seams: Constructed with seams on the outside to eliminate pressure points and improve internal comfort.

Materials and Construction

The Mahala Raid prioritises rider ergonomics by combining a soft polyester lining for moisture control with a secure single cuff and wrist restraint system. The inclusion of digital grip fabric overlays on the palms ensures a steady hold on the controls in all conditions, while the mid-length cuff offers a streamlined fit that slides easily under or over jacket sleeves. These elements work together to provide a glove that remains comfortable over long-distance tours.
