RST Freestyle D3O CE Gloves

Performance Protection for Urban Riding

The RST Freestyle D3O® CE gloves are a versatile short-cuff option designed for riders who demand high-level protection without sacrificing daily comfort. Constructed from premium full grain leather and now upgraded with D3O® armour, these gloves offer a balance of abrasion resistance and impact absorption for various road environments. The inclusion of technical materials like neoprene and carbon ensures a secure fit and robust defence against the elements and the asphalt.

Key Features

• D3O® Reinforcement: Integrated impact protection that remains flexible during normal use but hardens instantly upon impact.
• Hybrid Knuckle Protector: A high-specification carbon and TPU knuckle guard providing Level 1 KP certified protection.
• Full Grain Leather: High-quality leather construction throughout the outer shell for superior abrasion resistance and durability.
• Integrated Palm Slider: Strategically placed slider to reduce friction and protect the scaphoid during a slide.
• Smart Touch Leather: Conductive leather on the fingertips allows for seamless operation of touchscreen devices without removing the gloves.
• Perforated Leather: Breathable panels and vented fingertips promote airflow to keep hands cool in warmer conditions.
• Memory Foam Protection: Added memory foam on the fingers and thumb provides an extra layer of shock absorption and comfort.
• Motion Panels: Accordion stretch panels ensure maximum dexterity and reduce hand fatigue during long rides.

Ergonomics and Comfort

The Freestyle D3O® gloves prioritise rider ergonomics through pre-curved fingers that mirror the natural grip on motorcycle handlebars. A soft polyester lining prevents skin irritation, while the neoprene cuff and hook and loop wrist closure provide a tailored, secure seal against the wind. The double-layer leather at the palm reinforces high-wear areas, ensuring the gloves withstand the rigours of daily commuting.
