Reviews & Tips
1. Goat leather chassis delivers superior abrasion resistance, breathability, and comfort compared to synthetic alternatives
2. Sport hard PU knuckle provides class-leading impact protection in the critical zone
3. Full-length conductive suede on index finger provides better touchscreen usability than fingertip-only alternatives
1. At £79.99 it competes with a strong mid-range leather glove category where value alternatives exist
2. Short cuff provides limited wrist coverage — not the right choice for exposed or touring conditions
3. Leather construction requires care and conditioning to maintain performance over time
The Celer V3 is a short cuff leather road glove with a focused, stripped-back specification that suits naked sportsbike, touring, and urban riders equally well. Goat leather forms the main chassis for superior abrasion resistance, breathability, and comfort that full-grain leather delivers better than most synthetic alternatives. An Alpinestars Sport hard PU knuckle protector provides class-leading impact and abrasion resistance in a key zone, and a closed backhand gusset gives full freedom of movement and superior adaptability without requiring stretch panels throughout.
Ergonomic stretch on the side of the hand and center between the fingers improves hand movement and fit, a short cuff with hook and loop grip closure and puller tab keeps entry and exit fast, and Alpinestars’ short finger bridge prevents finger roll and separation during impacts. Strategically positioned rubber grips improve control feel, and conductive suede along the full length of the index finger and thumb tip covers touchscreen use. CE certified to EN 13594:2015, Category II, Level 1 KP.
