Sleek. Stylish. Classic. The CALIBER gloves are all those things, and much more. They are made of soft, goatskin leather. Their unique design, highlighted by decorative stitching, will satisfy the taste of classical style lovers. The gloves construction is based on pre-curved fingers and the GRIP+™ system, which ensures a perfect fit and more ergonomic grip for better precision in gas handling. The main knuckle protector is made of reinforced synthetic material supported by an auxiliary foam panel for superior protection and comfort. Additional panels with Poron®XRD™ impact absorbers are placed on the fingers and wrist area. The wrist panel is reinforced with an extra layer of leather. The vented design with numerous perforations will provide excellent breathability on warm days.

Protection

HARD KNUCKLE PROTEKTOR

PORON®XRD™ IMPACT ABSORBERS

Imagine that up to 90% of impact force never reach your body. Sounds good, right? That’s because of high performing foams that rapidly hardens under the impact making kind of “forcefield”. On the other hand on molecule level material is able to re-distribute the impact force in many directions so the impact that gets out is dissipated on much larger area.

REINFORCED DOUBLE SAFE SEAMS

Our specially designed reinforced double safe seams provide extra protection against tearing.

FRONT PALM LEATHER REINFORCEMENT

The gloves provide increased resistance to injuries and abrasions thanks to a reinforced extra layer of leather on the front palm of the glove.

GRIP+™ 3D THUMB CONSTRUCTION

The GRIP+ system is a design feature that provide optimal grip by ensuring the side of the glove is perfectly shaped to conform to the line of the handgrip. By keeping the fingers taut, and the back of the hand loose, GRIP+ improves safety, comfort and ensures the longevity of your gloves.

Size chart

To ensure the best possible protection and comfort while wearing the gloves, it is necessary to choose the right size.

The gloves must fit properly but must not exert pressure. With leather gloves, we advise a tighter fit because leather stretches after only a short period, following which it adjusts excellently to the hand. Winter gloves must be a little looser so that air can circulate through the insulation, thereby improving the way your hands are kept warm.
