Product Details
The Dainese Tempest 2 D-Dry Men's Short Thermal Motorcycle Gloves combine winter and mid-season weather protection with a compact short cuff. They are suited to everyday road riding and touring where a less bulky interface with the jacket sleeve is preferred.
A waterproof, breathable D-Dry membrane sits beneath the four-way stretch outer, while Fiberfill thermal lining provides cold-weather insulation. Pre-curved fingers aid control feel, Dainese Smart Touch supports compatible touchscreens and an index-finger visor wiper helps clear moisture while riding.
