Moto 4.5 Lite Gloves
The feel and grip of the gloves surprised us the most. The NanoGrip palm material (woven fibres that are 7,500 times thinner than human hair) along with new FormFit finger stitching are the best we’ve ever ridden with offering unbeaten grip and feel in both dry and wet conditions. The stretch material on the back of the hand is light and offer great airflow, while impact panels on the knuckles and fingers offer great protection.
