Alpinestars Jet Road Gloves Review 2026

The Jet Road Gloves are a premium adventure touring glove built for serious long-distance riders who need waterproof performance, genuine warmth, and class-leading protection without compromising on comfort or bar sensitivity across many hours in the saddle. A premium GORE-TEX waterproof and breathable membrane with GORE GRIP Technology is at the core — combining proven waterproofing with a special layered construction that promotes tactility and dexterity for better grip feel at the controls.

Multi-panel full premium leather construction is anatomically engineered, using high-grade goat skin on the palm and thumb alongside details on the backhand, combined with stretch polyamide fabric and softshell on the top hand. PrimaLoft insulation delivers excellent warmth-to-weight performance that insulates against cold while remaining water-resistant. Stretch fourchettes and leather accordions on the fingertips extend flexibility and range of hand movement, and a long cuff design provides extended coverage and forms a hermetic seal with a jacket for fully protected wrist coverage.

Protection hardware includes PU coated reinforcement zones on thumb and palm, synthetic leather reinforcements with foam padding on the palm and outer hand landing zone, aramid fiber and polyamide reinforcement for the fourth finger, and a PU knuckle for class-leading protection without impeding hand flex. Alpinestars’ patented third and fourth finger bridge prevents finger separation, integrated finger padding adds comfort and fit, and reflective piping adds low-light visibility. CE certified CAT II Level 1.
