Product Details
The Helstons Sun in Black is a full-grain goat leather summer motorcycle glove for riders who want a classic look, direct feel and useful protection in warmer conditions. The leather has a smooth, durable character with a lightly waxed finish, while the palm is reinforced with aramid fibres and the knuckles are covered by a protective shell.
Who are the Helstons Sun gloves for?
They suit road and urban riders looking for a short, straightforward leather glove for mild and warm-weather riding. The adjustable wrist tab helps secure the glove without the bulk of a long touring cuff.

Product questions
Are these gloves waterproof?
No waterproof membrane or performance rating is published for this model. They are intended primarily as summer leather gloves.
Are they touchscreen compatible?
Touchscreen compatibility is not stated for this exact Sun reference, so it should not be assumed.
What protection do they include?
The Sun has a protective knuckle shell and an aramid-fibre-reinforced palm. Helstons indexes a Sun Summer conformity document and the authorised UK distributor describes the model as CE Level 1, but readable current validity details were not available, so this listing does not present that as a current certification claim.
Care guidance
Clean the leather gently with a clean, damp, non-abrasive cloth and mild soap, then remove any soap residue and allow it to dry naturally. Use a suitable neutral or black leather-conditioning cream once dry. Do not machine wash, tumble dry or iron, and avoid prolonged soaking, heat and abrasive surfaces.
