Description

The Alpinestars SMX-2 Air Carbon V2 Gloves are engineered for urban riders seeking a balance of protection, comfort, and style. Constructed with a durable multi-panel design that integrates full-grain leather and 3D mesh, these gloves offer exceptional abrasion resistance and breathability. The innovative microfiber and PU grip inserts on the palm and thumb provide superior control, while the exclusive ergonomic stretch insert between the palm and thumb enhances hand movement sensitivity. Safety is paramount with the inclusion of ergonomically shaped carbon knuckle guards, reinforced with thick EVA foam on the interior side for improved fit, comfort, and shock absorption. Additional impact-absorbing EVA foam panels on the thumb offer extra protection. Designed for convenience, the gloves feature a neoprene wrist cuff with Velcro and TPR closure for a secure and personalized fit. The pre-curved finger construction reduces riding fatigue, and the 3D mesh finger and thumb surfaces ensure optimal cooling performance. Touchscreen compatibility on the index fingertip and thumb allows seamless use of smartphones and GPS systems without removing the gloves.

  • I would buy them again. Be patient with them and break them in.
Size: X-Large Color: Black
They fit true to size after a break-in period. They were tight at first. High-quality gloves, excellent materials. They are great for spring, summer, and fall in southern Arizona. I would buy them again. The color is just as pictured, featuring black gloves with white accents. Great for summer, not for winter. If you have an accident in them you will still have skin. ... show more

  • 100 miles and all good.
Size: Medium Color: Black
Great gloves and comfortable to wear. We’re just a tad tight at first, I’m between a medium and large, but have stretched enough so now I can wear them comfortably. Ridden about 100 miles with them so far and they are holding up well with no significant signs of wear or stitching coming undone.

  • ALPINE STARS FTW!! ALPINE STARS FTW!!
Size: Medium Color: Black/Red/White
Awesome gloves i luckily got them from a seller that had them discounted 60% off and only paid $40 (BE SURE TO CHECK OTHER SELLERS SOME WILL DISCOUNT THEIR ITEMS MORE THAN THE BUY BOX) Just a tip - these aren’t super protective gloves they are minimally protective gloves. Great for summer riding lightweight and good air flow. And YES THE TOUCH SCREEN FUNCTION WORKS! you have to tap with the tip of your finger between the leather on your palm amd the stitching on top. Works on my phone, macbook, etc. definitely worth the purchase. My hand is 8 in circumference and the medium gloves fit perfectly. ... show more

  • Great with one draw back
Size: Large Color: Black
I’ve been using the Alpinestars SMX-2 Air Carbon V2 gloves in black, and overall they’ve been really solid gloves. Right out of the box, they are pretty stiff and definitely take some time to break in, but once they start molding to your hands, they feel a lot more comfortable and natural. One downside is that they don’t really have good touchscreen sensitivity, so using a phone while wearing them is pretty frustrating. That’s probably the biggest drawback for me. On the positive side, the build quality feels really good and protective without being overly bulky. Another big plus is breathability — my hands don’t really sweat in them, even during longer use, which makes them a lot more comfortable than heavier gloves. Overall, they feel durable, protective, and comfortable after breaking in, just with the trade-off of poor phone usability. ... show more

  • Great gloves but touch does not work
Size: X-Large Color: Black
I love these gloves for summer riding, great fit, feel and look in typical Alpinestars fashion. That being said they do not work at all for use on your phone when the gloves are on. Not sure if it’s phone specific (I’m using an iPhone 11 Pro Max) but I have a set of Alpinestars Gauntlet style gloves (SP-8) and the touch aspect works seamlessly by comparison which leads me to believe it’s an issue with the gloves. I tried 2 sets of these gloves and the issue persisted & given many other reviews stating the same thing this seems to be a problem with this specific model of their glove as far as the touch function goes. All in all this was however not a deal breaker for me but worth being aware of in the event that’s a huge factor for you in choosing the correct riding glove. ... show more

  • Ventilated gloves
Size: Large Color: Black
Nice set of gloves that took a small amount of time to break in and about 8 months later still feel great. Am looking to get ones that extend to past the wrist next

  • The best riding gloves I’ve worn
Size: XX-Large Color: Black/White
Perfect fit and extremely comfortable on road trips. Saved my hands in most recent accident. 100% recommend for street use to keep hands safe. Do not ride without these.
