Construction and protection
Richa uses waxed goatskin leather to give the Nazaire its distinctive character while retaining the suppleness needed for comfortable control operation. The outer-shell composition is 95% leather, 3% nylon and 2% polyurethane, with a 100% polyester lining.
A flexible knuckle protector provides certified impact coverage without disrupting the glove’s understated shape. Padded palms, double stitching and accordion stretch sections add useful reinforcement and mobility for everyday road use.
Fit and fastening
The Nazaire is cut as a men’s glove and extends slightly beyond the wrist. A Velcro wrist strap secures the glove, while the zipped cuff gusset can be opened for additional entry room or closed for a neater fit around the wrist.
Measure around the widest part of your dominant hand, excluding the thumb. Measure hand length from the tip of the middle finger to the base of the palm. If your measurements fall between sizes, the smaller option will feel closer and the larger option will provide more room.

Weather suitability
Richa classifies the Nazaire for summer and mid-season riding. No waterproof membrane or thermal insulation is listed, so it is best treated as a dry-weather glove rather than a waterproof or winter model.

Questions and answers
What protection standard does the Nazaire meet?
The glove is certified to EN 13594:2015 Level 1 KP. The KP marking confirms that tested knuckle impact protection is included.
Is the knuckle protector rigid?
Richa describes the Nazaire’s protector as flexible, helping it sit discreetly beneath the waxed-leather outer while retaining certified knuckle coverage.
Are these gloves waterproof?
No waterproof membrane is listed. Choose them for dry summer or mid-season riding and use a dedicated waterproof glove when sustained rain is expected.
How should waxed leather gloves be cared for?
Follow the instructions on the sewn-in care label. Clean gently, allow the gloves to air dry naturally away from direct heat, and use a suitable motorcycle-leather care product when required.
Warranty and fitting support
Richa lists a two-year manufacturer warranty for its motorcycle gloves, subject to its terms and exclusions. Natural wear, crash damage and incorrect care are not covered. Keep your proof of purchase if a warranty assessment is needed.
