RST motorcycle gloves range from short road and summer styles to full-cuff sport, waterproof touring and heated options. The best pair is the one that matches the temperature, rain exposure, cuff arrangement and level of control feel you need.
Match the glove to the ride
- Sport and track: compare full gauntlets, wrist restraint, finger construction and any track-day requirements.
- Everyday road use: short cuffs can be convenient, while longer cuffs give more overlap with a jacket sleeve.
- Wet and cold weather: choose products explicitly described as waterproof or heated. Insulation, membrane and power system vary between models.
- Summer and ventilation: perforated, mesh or Ventilator-labelled gloves are designed for airflow and should not be assumed to keep rain out.
How motorcycle gloves should fit
With your hand around a grip, the fingers should reach the ends without pressure, the palm should not bunch and the wrist closure should remain secure. Check that you can operate the indicators, brake and clutch without seams restricting movement.
For rain use, consider how the cuff sits with your jacket. For heated gloves, confirm what battery, lead or vehicle connection is included and whether any separate power component is required.

Customer questions
Are all RST gloves waterproof?
No. Waterproof models are identified individually; many sport and warm-weather gloves are not intended as rain gloves.
Do RST heated gloves include everything needed?
Packages differ, so check the specific contents and power requirements before ordering.
Should a glove cuff go over or under the jacket?
That depends on the glove, jacket sleeve and weather strategy. The key is secure overlap without creating a water trap or restricting wrist movement.
