Leather gloves

What to look for in gloves and boots

Gloves fall under EN 13594, class 1 for everyday use and class 2 for the highest demands. Look at the palm reinforcement, because that is what hits the road first. Boots fall under EN 13634, where height, transverse rigidity, cut resistance and ankle protection are rated separately on the label. A stiff sole protects better but walks worse, so choose for what you do most.

• EN 13594 class 1 or 2 on gloves
• Ankle protection and rigidity on boots
• Waterproof membrane or venting, not both

Finding the right size

Sizing differs per brand. Every product page carries that brand chart, and the size advisor walks you to the right size in a few steps. Between two sizes, riding gear usually fits better one size down, because armour needs to stay where it belongs.
