When an industry leader in moto-gear and a motorcycle manufacturer come together to release a line of riding apparel, you know you're getting function, fit, and a little fun.
The marriage of Suzuki and Icon has spawned numerous offspring including helmets, jackets, and gloves designed for the ride. The ARC women's gloves are an evolutionary step in handwear. Like most riding gloves, they have breathable finger vents and abrasion resistant material, but these battlehide goatskin gloves also have padded knuckles with expansion panels and gel inserts in the palms.
The tiger-paw palms of the ARC give the rider extra grip and absorb vibration. Multi-faceted leather architecture holds the gloves in a natural riding position, with the thumb open and curled as if around the throttle. The design frees you from fighting against the stitching, which wears out your hand and the glove in short order.
At around $80, you are paying for what you get. There's nothing negative to say about the look or construction of these gloves and they do have style with pink accents on the back and the palm pads. So if you've got the green, these are the perfect, practical riding accessory for the girl who has everything.
Ladies, also check out the Icon Pursuit gloves for a smaller, slender fit.
