Introduction

We have already tried Helstons’ riding gear, and so far, it’s the most expensive feeling motorcycle wear I have personally experienced. It’s light, but feels extremely premium to the touch. And, in the next six months, we will know how it ages as well. You can read about the Sonny mesh riding jacket HERE, and about the Corden Stone riding denims HERE. All Helstons gear in India, by the way, is sold by Delhi-based MotoPoto LLP.

 

Helstons is a French brand. And, from the choice of materials, to the kind of protection these come with, and of course, their design, it’s clear Helstons doesn’t play the mainstream game. It’s the haute couture of motorcycle riding gear. And, the fact that it’s inspired by the vintage motorcycling era, makes it that much cooler.

 

The Wind Mesh Summer gloves we have here strike a good balance between old school style and new-age feel. These don’t have metal sliders or fancy air-scoops to cool your fingers like modern day gloves. Instead, the Helstons use high-quality leather that’s supple to touch but greatly resistant to friction burns.

 

Additionally, the Wind Mesh come with Kevlar padding in the palm area for added impact protection. These CE level 1 gloves also offer carbon fibre protection to the knuckles. And, given that these are road or street riding gloves, the leather is mixed with high-quality mesh around the wrist and fingers to keep things cool.

More on the fit, breathability, comfort and feel, in the next report.
