The Youth Thermo Shielder Gloves are a windproof MX and off-road glove designed for younger riders in cooler conditions. Full stretch Neoprene construction provides optimal thermal protection and windproof performance without adding bulk, making them a practical cold-weather off-road glove that doesn’t restrict the hand movement young riders need to control the bike confidently. A windproof stretch fourchette specifically prevents windchill penetrating between the fingers, and a synthetic suede palm delivers durable grip on the handlebars.
Rolling palm construction on the backhand and index finger adds durability at high-contact points, perforated thumb and side palm reinforcement patches add further protection and wear resistance, and PU laser lamination on the backhand provides enhanced impact and abrasion protection. A Hypalon closure flap with integrated Velcro hooks gives a precise, secure closure, and silicon print on the palm, fingers, flap, and puller adds a distinctive visual identity alongside grip reinforcement.
The Youth Thermo Shielder Gloves are aimed at young MX and off-road riders who ride in cooler conditions and need a windproof, thermally protective glove that allows natural hand movement. At £32.99, they’re accessibly priced for an officially endorsed youth off-road glove from Alpinestars.
