This collection contains the black Icon PDX3, a short-cuff waterproof motorcycle glove designed for wet road use. A four-way stretch nylon and polyester backhand sits over a waterproof-breathable Hipora insert, while the Ax Laredo palm provides a leather-like control surface. D3O protection covers the knuckles.
Waterproofing and protection
Icon specifies a Hipora waterproof-breathable insert to help keep the interior dry while allowing moisture vapour to escape. As with any short glove, jacket-cuff overlap matters: arrange the sleeve and glove so rain is not channelled through the wrist opening.
The PDX3 is tested and certified to EN 13594:2015 Level 1/KP. The KP marking confirms tested knuckle protection, supported here by the D3O insert. A hook-and-loop wrist closure secures the glove, and the Ax Laredo palm is used for abrasion resistance and a direct feel at the controls.
Fit and cuff setup
Use the product-page size chart and measure both hands. The glove should fit closely without pulling tightly across the knuckles or leaving excess material at the fingertips. Make a fist, operate the levers and check that the wrist fastening prevents the glove from sliding off.
- Try the glove with the jacket you use in rain.
- Check that the cuff overlap does not leave a gap when reaching for the controls.
- Make sure the D3O protector remains centred over the knuckles.
- Confirm the palm does not bunch around the throttle or lever fingers.
Care after wet rides
Follow the supplied care instructions and avoid puncturing or sharply folding the waterproof insert. Wipe away surface dirt, open the cuff and let the gloves dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them on a radiator or use a tumble dryer. Inspect the palm, seams, wrist closure and knuckle area after any fall or visible abrasion.

Moto Central shows current size availability on the product page and provides the wider Icon range for comparing alternative materials and levels of weather protection. The PDX3 is a focused choice for riders who want certified knuckle protection and a waterproof insert without moving to a long gauntlet.
