The Alpinestars SP-9 leather motorcycle gloves combine racing-derived protection with the comfort and flexibility needed for everyday street riding. Finished in black and white, these Small gloves feature a performance-focused design developed for riders who want responsive control, durable construction, and extended wrist coverage. The manufacturer is Alpinestars, and the manufacturer and vendor part number is 3500526-12-S.
The SP-9 gloves use a full-grain goat leather main construction for a balanced blend of abrasion resistance, durability, and comfort. A perforated leather backhand promotes airflow, while strategically positioned stretch fabric, flexible fourchettes, and accordion panels on the first two fingers support dexterity when operating the clutch and brake levers. The anatomically profiled grip insert on the palm and thumb helps improve control, and the two-layer stretch membrane construction around the thumb base reduces tension during riding. E-touch fingertips allow convenient operation of compatible electronic devices without removing the gloves.
Protection is provided by the MotoGP-derived SP-R divided TPU knuckle, which is shaped to support finger movement and reduce pressure points during braking, shifting, and cornering. Additional protective features include an SP-R TPU palm slider, palm and side-hand overlays, finger impact reinforcements, aramid fiber reinforcement at the finger bridge and palm slider, and multi-thickness foam and EVA padding in key impact zones. Alpinestars' finger bridge helps prevent the ring and pinky fingers from separating during a crash while reinforcing the outer seam. The long cuff uses a dual closure system for a secure, personalized fit and increased coverage, while the pre-shaped construction and streamlined race-inspired profile help minimize material bunching. The Alpinestars SP-9 is a versatile glove for sport, touring, and daily motorcycle use.
