Independently tested and certified to the latest European standard prEN13594 2012, the Handroid is one of a small number of gloves that meet the testing standards. In order to get the certification the Handroid passed 15 different tests, including abrasion resistance, cut resistance, tear strength, seam strength and impact resistance.
The gloves were also tested for dexterity, to ensure riders can still operate controls easily while wearing them, as well as restraint, so they won’t come off in an accident. Made from Japanese leather, with Kangaroo palms and the additional benefit of Knox SPS ‘sliders’, both the Handroid and short-cuff Handroid Pod passed all the tests.
“There are many gloves appearing with CE labels, but hardly any that meet the toughest standard for motorcycle riders. Being approved to EN13594 proves that Handroid not only have the most advanced specification, but also offer real protection too,” said Knox founder Geoff Travell. Handroid gloves are available in black, black/white or white/black in sizes S-XXL.
