These gloves are made to handle the unpredictable nature of off-road rides. You get CE Level 2-rated Sas-Tec knuckle armour, abrasion-resistant SuperFabric at the scaphoid, and EVA padding layered for impact protection. An extra panel along the pinky side helps reduce injury during slides, while reinforced fingers keep you covered on rough terrain.
Comfort and Fit
The Roost v2 is all about easy movement and day-long wearability. Pre-curved fingers follow your hand’s natural position, while the stretch fabric flexes with every gear shift or brake pull. Finger overlays eliminate seam pressure, and a pull tab at the cuff helps you slide them on with no fuss - even after a long trail ride.
How to Measure Glove Size
Step 1 – Measure Your Hand
Grab a tailor’s measuring tape and take two quick measurements:
Circumference – Wrap the tape around the widest part of your palm. Lightly close your hand before noting the number.
Length – Measure from the tip of your middle finger to the base of your palm (where your wrist starts).
Step 2 – Check the Size Chart
Match your measurements with the size chart to find the right fit.
If your length and circumference fall in different size categories, go with the larger one.
If you're in between sizes, try both and pick the one that feels better on the bike.
A good fit means better control, less fatigue, and max protection—don’t guess it.
How to Check Glove Fitment
STEP 1 - Confirm that the gloves are a comfortable fit.
They should not be excessively tight on all fingers (including the thumb) & knuckles.
To check this, try the gloves on and form a fist several times and verify if:
1. Adequate room for all fingers (specially thumb) to move and operate controls comfortably.
2. Check the fitment on both hands since your left and right hand sizes do vary.
Ensure that the fit on first try is not so tight as to cause discomfort and/or restrict movement
STEP 2 - Ensure the knuckle protectors are properly positioned.
The way to check this is:
1. Roll your hand into a tight fist and hold the position for 5-10 minutes. This position should be easy to hold without causing any discomfort or causing any stress points.
2. Ensure that the edge of the knuckle protector is not over the knuckle when the fist is formed."
How to clean & dry gloves?
1. Clean the gloves as soon as you are able to, after your off-road session. This will make removing any stains easier. Leaving the gloves un-clean will make removing any stains tougher.
2. In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix a portion of diluted cleaning solution in lukewarm water.
3. Dampen a microfiber cloth with the mixture and gently wipe the stained areas. If there are stains which you are unable to remove using a damp cloth, use a soft bristled brush soaked in a mild pH neutral soap and rinse off using cold water. Please note that using a stiffer brush could lead to piling which will not be covered under warranty.
4. Clean the gloves starting at the wrist and working toward each fingertip. Be sure to clean well between each finger. Keep moving to a clean area of the cloth as the dirt is transferred.
5. Rinse the cloth often as the dirt is transferred. Turn the gloves over and repeat on the other side.
6. DO NOT USE HOT WATER
7. Do not use detergents, fabric stain removers, bleach or any chemicals for cleaning.
8. Do not wash the gloves in a washing machine.
9. Dip dry the gloves after cleaning in a ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
10. Do not wring the gloves.
How to store?
When gloves are stored wet or in a non-ventilated area, this may cause deformations and ruin your gloves, not to mention this allows mildew to grow causing discoloration and damage.
1. Make sure that your gloves are completely dry before you store them.
2. Place them in a breathable cotton bag to protect them from dust but with enough air circulation to prevent mildew from forming.
3. Store them in a cool, dry, well ventilated area
Things to Remember
The Roost v2 gloves are specifically designed for off-road use and will not provide the same level of protection as our street gloves.
Off-road riding demands more from gloves due to constant control modulation. While we have enhanced durability, these gloves may wear out faster than traditional leather gloves, depending on use. Made from textile material and Kaitai microfiber, they offer superior grip, feedback, and comfort but are more susceptible to wear and tear. This wear is dependent on individual use and is not covered under the warranty policy.
Off-road usage can make the gloves dirty, so we recommend cleaning them after each session if cleanliness is a concern.
Fit and comfort are subjective and vary from person to person, so we suggest trying the gloves before purchasing.
Additionally, avoid contact between the hard Velcro and the glove fabric which can cause fraying - this does not affect the performance.
