The gloves come with reinforced leather palms and preformed cuff areas for added protection. You’ll love the adjustable cuff fastening strap with cover that ensures a secure fit around your wrist. The composite inserts in preformed stainless steel and thermoplastic on the knuckles and backhand provide superior impact resistance while not compromising on feel.

The DCP system on the little finger increases its safety by reducing any risks of twisting. External thermoplastic inserts are present on the side of little finger to shield them from impact too. Polyurethane insert provides more padding to keep you safe even during those hard falls.
