Product Description

The most renowned name in motorcycle gloves began in 1923 when Bruno Held designed his first mountaineering glove for climbers in the mountain village of Burberg, Bavaria. Since this humble beginning, Held GmbH has quietly set the standards for the highest quality designs of motorcycling gloves crafted from premium leather hides as well as modern materials. It is no wonder that Held is the number one selling glove brand in Germany, where motorcycle sport and proper protective gear is taken very seriously. The Held family, now led by brothers Erhard and Edgar Held, have kept the tradition of quality gloves alive and Fairchild Sports is very proud to offer the Held Glove Collection to the most demanding road racing, performance sport and touring riders in North America.

Absolutely Amazing! Best fitting and most protective glove on the market!
By Vipergtp
I purchased these gloves after doing some heavy research trying to find the most protective gloves I could for riding. Let me say these gloves are phenomenal! The quality and materials used are amazing and the feel is fantastic! From what I've seen in other reviews and videos online they hold up in multiple crashes and remain usable. Personally I hope I never have to find out how excellent they are in a crash but it makes me feel much more comfortable if I ever have too.

I utilized the sizing information posted on Held's site to measure my hand and ending up with the perfect fit! I must say that Held prides itself by saying "It fits like a Glove" well they indeed do fit exactly like a glove is supposed to, like a second skin you your hand. I would highly recommend these gloves to anyone looking for the Best Protection & Gloves they can purchase!

Awesome
By KC
I crashed at a trackday at 85mph. I went 100ft and the bike went 150ft in another direction, the titanium knuckle covers were scraped, but are fully up to this season's track days. These are the best gloves on the planet and give excellent feel in the palm and excellent protection. I'm looking to see if I can get another pair on sale, but I'd pay full price in a heart beat if I toasted the pair I have.

The most protective gloves on Earth
By Jeremy Jones
I'm a 19 year old rider, and following the example of my older riding counterpart, I invested heavily in high quality gear. Only several months after I started riding, I went down on the freeway. It wasn't anything SUPER crazy, but crazy enough to be scary. These gloves were the difference between me being able to heft my bike back up and ride home and having them cramp up on me, be all sore, and calling a tow truck, paying for that, etc. The protection that these gloves gave me let me keep my fine motor skills perfectly intact, letting me temporarily fix my instruments that had been tweaked when I went down. Seriously. I would've been royally screwed without these things. Try them on at a store if you can and slam the back of your fingers hard against the corner of a doorway, you'll barely feel it. It's incredible.

Verdict: I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. I love to draw, I love to use computers, and if you're like most other humans, you use your han ds to do the things you love. I'd hate to be an emergency room with all my knuckles broken, that would never be the same, and thinking "Man, I really wish I would've dropped that money for those gloves." That's what pushed me to drop the extra 80 on these compared to the phantoms, and the extra $350 for the riders who don't wear gloves at all.
