Heated motorcycle gloves

Man is a homeotherm: a living being whose average, constant temperature is independent of the surrounding environment...

Resisting the cold, adapting to the heat, maintaining an internal temperature of around 37°C at all times, whatever our metabolic rate or the temperature of the surrounding environment: this is the principle of thermoregulation.

When a person is exposed to the cold for too long, their body may become unable to maintain an adequate temperature to function properly. If the oral temperature falls below 35°C, the person is hypothermic.

Hyperthermia, on the other hand, is a rise in body temperature caused by an accumulation of heat. This phenomenon occurs in particular during sunstroke or heatwaves.

Being “too” cold or “too” hot is a source of discomfort, and can even lead to injuries such as frostbite...

Feet and hands are the first limbs affected by the sensation of cold, mainly due to reduced blood circulation at these levels. In addition to a sensation of local cold, this creates a loss of motricity and overall body fatigue.

The brain, alerted by this unpleasant sensation, triggers a surge of energy to warm the hands and feet, without success for the most sensitive.

For example, people suffering from Raynaud's disease (3 to 12% of men and 6 to 20% of women are affected). The result is a feeling of weakness and shivering.

G-Heat has developed its range of heated garments to (re)act when the body can no longer do so, and to prevent the risks associated with the cold, providing continuous warmth and comfort during your activities.

These high-performance garments are ideal for outdoor activities in cold weather, and can even be used without batteries when temperatures remain cool but bearable, but also as comfort aids for anyone suffering from the cold.

In addition to heated gloves for motorcycles, there are a number of other items to help protect you from the cold when you're out and about on two wheels.

Thin and light, G-Heat's sleeveless heated jackets and down jackets can be worn as undercoats. Please note, however, that the batteries in our heated vests are rated at 5V, less than those in our gloves.

G-Heat heated socks have been designed for nomadic outdoor activities in cold weather, alternating phases of effort and rest. They fit perfectly in your motorcycle boots!

Our heated motorcycle gloves let you ride in the cold for hours on end with unrivalled comfort.

Our batteries are designed to withstand temperatures close to -25 degrees.

If outside temperatures are bearable, you can still use our gloves without activating the additional heat diffusion. Some models, like the RIDER heated motorcycle gloves or the ALLROADS+ heated motorcycle gloves, meet CE standards and 1KP certification (PPE level 1).

Choosing motorcycle gloves is not an easy decision. An essential element of protection and comfort, heated gloves need to be chosen with care. There are a number of criteria to consider when choosing heated motorcycle gloves for winter.

Travel time

This is a factor to be considered before each outing, as our winter motorcycle gloves have a 6-hour autonomy, so they'll be with you for the duration of your journeys.

Beyond battery life, materials and fit will influence the comfort you feel during your ride.

For shorter, daily trips, we recommend our RIDER motorcycle gloves. For longer journeys, we recommend our ALLROADS+ heated leather motorcycle gloves , as they have a longer cuff and a more “waterproof”, windproof leather lining.

For those who don't want to part with their favourite winter motorcycle gloves, but want to be sure of an extra source of warmth, you can also choose G-Heat heated undergloves, to slip under your usual gloves.

In addition to being waterproof, a heated motorcycle glove should also be designed to ensure the safety and protection of the wearer's hands. To achieve this, we recommend choosing gloves with protective shells and approved motorcycle gloves.

Our approved motorcycle gloves come with a label stating the European standard EN 13594. Keep it on the glove at all times, as it will stand as proof in the event of a police check.

With an absorbent foam lining, a protective carbon zone on the back of the hand and leather reinforcement on the palm, our two models of heated motorcycle gloves (RIDER and ALLROADS+) provide ideal thermal insulation and meet CE standards and 1KP certification.

Approved motorcycle gloves bear the PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) pictogram representing a motorcyclist. The 1KP certification, for “Knuckle Protector”, indicates that the gloves feature protective shells at the metacarpal joints, the joints located at the base of the fingers on the palm of the hand.

The gloves undergo an extensive series of tests prior to certification. The parameters tested for motorcycle glove certification are resistance to

• abrasion resistance
  
• tear resistance
  
• puncture resistance
  
• impact
  
• bursting
  

The RIDER and ALLROADS models of heated gloves have passed this certification: you'll be protected in the event of a fall on a motorcycle, scooter, electric scooter, mountain bike or other high-risk sport.

In snow or rain, motorcycle gloves need to be comfortable, and keep hands warm to prevent the rider from getting cold. Their composition is therefore demanding in terms of waterproofing.

These heated gloves are specially designed for bikers, so they have all the necessary qualities: comfortable, resistant, waterproof and breathable.

Depending on the model, our heated gloves come in a range of materials for cold-weather riding

Leather: leather is a natural material offering excellent resistance and flexibility. Above all, leather is abrasion-resistant: an asset in the event of a motorcycle crash. Even if only leather inserts are involved, they're very important, especially on the palm of the hand.

Polyester/cotton blend: the cotton-polyester blend is highly versatile and, above all, guarantees the fabric's breathability.

Heated gloves are motorcycle gloves with a network of heating wires running across the back of the hand, fingers and fingertips, depending on the model. They are designed for use by motorcyclists, scooter riders and motocrossers. They're your best weapon against the cold, an ideal style of motorcycle glove for winter.

Easily recharged with discreet batteries, durable and approved, heated motorcycle gloves are the must-have biker accessories for winter.

When riding a motorcycle in winter, it's not uncommon for traditional technical clothing to reach its limits and become ineffective. As a result, the cold can stiffen the body, increasing the risk of accidents and making the ride less enjoyable.

Depending on how long you're exposed to the cold, you may experience more or less serious health risks: numbness, frostbite... rendering the activity in progress difficult, compromised or even dangerous.

The limbs furthest from the body, such as the feet and hands, suffer first from the cold.

G-Heat heated motorcycle gloves are designed to insulate the body from ambient cold by establishing an effective thermal barrier combining a technical, waterproof, windproof and breathable textile combined with a technology that diffuses gentle yet powerful integrated́e heat.

3 intensity levels keep the body warm according to how you feel: up to 6 hours of warmth depending on the model.
