THE RENOWNED ORSA TEXTILE, NOW WITH IMPROVED STRENGTH.
The Orsa Textile Mk 3 is a great fitting glove. A mix of perforated leather and tough four-way stretch mesh rib on the back of the hand.

Knox SPS
Scaphoid injury is the most common hand injury caused by the grab effect when the palm of the hand makes contact with the ground.
The Knox SPS works by attaching 2 parts to the palm of the glove, making a bridge over the scaphoid. These plastic parts act as a slider eliminating the grab effect and scaphoid injuries. This has proven to be a very effective system for riders with no loss of flexibility, discomfort or interference with the controls when operating the bike.
Knox SPS is patented technology under the following Patents No: EP1594378 & US8671463
BOA® Fit System

Palm Circumference (A): Palm circumference is the total measurement around the widest part of the palm and over the knuckles. Put the tape around your palm and make a fist, then note the measurement.
Hand Length (B): Measure from your wrist crease to the end of your middle finger.
Measure your hand length and width and choose size the closest to your measurements. This should fit your hand correctly. If your hand fits one measure but not the 2nd, or if you prefer a looser fit, we would advise choosing the next size up.
