The Caliber gloves (as part of the DIRT Series collection) feel perfectly at home on or off-road. Why? Because this snug-fitting pair of hand protectors combine the best of both leather and mesh. In order to keep your hands safe, these CE-certified gloves incorporate PWR|Shield fabric at the palm for maximum abrasion resistance. The top of the gloves are constructed with well-ventilated PWR|Stretch mesh and flexible TPR protection is found on the fingers and knuckles. This combination – along with stretch in all the right places - provides optimal freedom of movement and the armour necessary to keep your hands safe whether riding on the asphalt or exploring off the beaten path. Additionally, the comfortable neoprene cuff will keep dust and water out of the gloves.
Injected ventilated flex knuckle
This knuckle protection is injected in the upper material which makes it very flexible and abrasion resistant. Due to its structure it ventilates very well while keeping you safe.
Outseam stitching by Guterman
Marketing calls it PWR yarn
PWR|Shield at palm
PWR|Shield is created with a unique knit technique which results in a fabric with unsurpassed cut, tear and abrasion resistance levels. This product is equipped with PWR|Shield at the palm.
Connect finger tip fabric
Never take off your gloves again to answer your phone or navigation system. The connect fingertip has been specifically designed to operate touch screens.
Corduroy
Goatskin
Tanned leather made from goatskin is considered extremely durable, and is often used for gloves and other products that require a soft hide.
neoprene
Neoprene is a synthetic rubber useful for protective gear. It is abrasion-resistant, chemical-resistant, waterproof, somewhat stretchable, and buoyant.

I purchased these for their ability to work with a touchscreen. That part works amazingly. The inside of them is a little sharp/uncomfortable but other than that. I love them
Chose size M and it fits perfect. Ride Type:
Street Naked/Commuting
Usage: Summer gloves
Pros:
- Love the short cuff and the neoprene feeling on the wrist
- Large loops to pull when putting on the gloves
- Can reach and feel the controls easily
Cons:
- Lack of wrist and finger protection (Wish the pinky finger was more protected and the palm slider was reinforced with plastic/carbon rather than a small cushion with leather)
- Breath ability /Lack of air flow (Using the gloves above 26ºC and got home with sweaty palms)
After needing to size up comparing to other brands, the gloves fit really comfortable and feel good quality.
Also the customer service was really helpful with sizing. I advise to reach out to them if coming from other brands.
I used the glove on a recent >6000 km trip from Perth to the Pilbara and West Kimberley regions.
The glove performed well in temperatures from 10 C to 43 C, in terms of comfort, fit, feel of controls, and breathability. Indeed, after break-in and the softening of a rough seam in one glove, I reckon the gloves are probably the most comfortable I’ve ever used. The stretch fabric near the wrist closure and breathable mesh on the back of the hand and beneath the protective cover contribute to their functional design.
The construction and design is such that I feel the gloves are suitable for on- and off-road use, and indeed, are an ideal, short cuff variant for adventure use. The provision of the pull loops was a blessing when trying to put the gloves on clammy hands in the hot, humid sub-tropics in the build-up to the wet season.
Unfortunately, the gloves do not have iPhone touchscreen functionality as advertised, and it is for this reason I rated the product as four-out-of-five stars. This shortcoming is a shame because these gloves deserve a higher score.

I was looking for waterproof boots for my adventure bike. This is a nice in between boot that’s good for touring and the occasional off road trip. A bit hard to get on when initially purchased (sizes are true) but they are comfortable for my wide feet. Keep feet warm during winter and waiting to see how hot they get in summer. Happy with purchase. Great quality
These boots run true to size from the measuring guide, and fit perfectly straight out of the box with no breaking in needed. All the comfort of a sneaker, and the sturdiness of a boot. Found my new favourite.
Excellent quality and perfect for Darwin the (NT) conditions. At $99
you cannot go wrong. I highly recommend the Airwave 3
Great jacket for waterproof touring. You can wear it in hot weather (around 30 degrees) on highways or dirt roads but if you get into the technical stuff it won't breathe or vent enough and you'll sweat a lot. It's not really designed for that though. It's fantastic at keeping you dry on the coldest, wettest days and has plenty of pockets and vents if needed. It's great not having to worry about external or inner rain layers. The detachable thermal inner is a bit old school and can't be worn by itself, but I just wear a lightweight puffy underneath.
The only downside I've found is that even in a 3XL (i'm 47 inches around the chest) @ 172cm and 105 kilos the neck latch isn't adjustable enough for me, so it won't stay buckled, even at its widest setting.
