These gloves have a quick on/easy-off layout with a Velcro wrist adjustment under the palm, and a back-of-hand zipper for fast access. But for as easy as these gloves are to get on and off, they offer outsized protection—both from the elements, thanks to the Gore-Tex liner, and from the asphalt, thanks to the armor sprinkled throughout the glove.
It’s important to note that these gloves, unlike their longer Gauntlet sibling, the Vanguard GTX Long, do not come with insulation. This means they’re good from spring through fall, but will require a glove liner if you’re going to push them past foliage season into winter rides. Unless, that is, you’ve got heated grips and hand guards on your motorcycle, in which case you can easily stretch these utility players through 12 months of the calendar.
