Xavi Vierge Honda Racing Gloves WSBK 2022

The Xavi Vierge Honda WSBK racing gloves are hand-stitched in 0.8–0.9 mm cowhide leather race-grade construction. This thickness delivers the abrasion resistance and durability you need for aggressive track riding and competition use. The double-layered palm reinforcement provides grip security during hard braking and cornering, while the molded knuckle armor protects your hand back from impact. Cowhide is the proven choice for WSBK-level racing — it's what Xavi Vierge's competition gloves are built from. The material is sourced and stitched to withstand repeated high-speed sessions without compromising feel or control on the throttle.

The TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) knuckle protector covers the primary impact zone on the back of your hand, delivering rigid armor that absorbs and dissipates impact energy during aggressive braking and cornering. The molded design spreads force across a wider surface area, reducing peak pressure at any single point. Impact-absorbing padding is strategically placed on high-contact areas — knuckles, finger joints, and the thumb — to further reduce impact forces in racing situations. This layered protection system is built to the same spec as Xavi Vierge's 2022 WSBK Honda season gloves, so you get race-grade defense without sacrificing hand mobility or throttle feel and control.

The Xavi Vierge Honda WSBK racing gloves come in XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, and 3XL. If your hand measurements don't align with standard sizes, select Custom Size from the product options Size and complete the checkout process. After checkout, submit your hand measurements via the measurement form using your order number. Custom-fitted gloves ship in 4–6 weeks from spec confirmation. This made-to-measure approach ensures the gloves fit your hand geometry precisely — critical for throttle control and grip security during track sessions. Standard-size orders ship in 10–15 working days, so you'll have your gloves much sooner if a stock size works for you.

These gloves are hand-stitched replicas of Xavi Vierge's 2022 Honda WSBK race gloves with season-accurate livery in Black, Red, and White colorways. The design replicates the professional WSBK specifications and protective construction matching his competition gear — same 0.8–0.9 mm cowhide leather, same TPU knuckle armor, same palm reinforcement. The color layout and proportions mirror the gloves Vierge wore during the 2022 season, so you're getting an authentic replica, not a generic race glove. Each pair is hand-stitched to order, so the build quality and attention to detail reflect the care that goes into professional racing gear. For collectors and fans, this is the closest you'll get to wearing the same gloves as the rider.

The pre-curved finger construction is molded to match your natural hand position on the throttle, reducing fatigue and improving grip performance during extended track sessions. Seamless finger construction minimizes pressure points and bunching at the knuckles, so you maintain consistent contact with the handlebar without hot spots or friction. This ergonomic design is especially valuable during aggressive cornering and repeated gear shifts — your hand stays in the optimal throttle-control position without having to fight the glove. The reinforced thumb and pinky areas withstand the demands of race-pace riding, while the textured grip surface maintains contact even when your hands are damp from sweat or track conditions. You'll notice the difference in precision handling lap after lap.

After each track session, wipe down the gloves with a damp cloth to remove dirt and track debris. Allow them to air-dry completely — avoid direct heat or sunlight, which can crack the cowhide. Once dry, condition the leather with a neutral leather balm to maintain suppleness and abrasion resistance. Store the gloves in a cool, dry place away from moisture and extreme temperatures. The 0.8–0.9 mm cowhide leather will develop a natural patina over time, which actually improves grip and appearance. Avoid machine washing or soaking — hand cleaning preserves the hand-stitched seams and TPU armor integrity. With proper care, your WSBK racing gloves will stay race-ready for many seasons and continue to perform at track speed.
