The Alpinestars SP-9 Gloves are street-focused sport riding gloves built with track-inspired protection and a performance fit. They use a full grain goat leather main chassis with added synthetic leather reinforcement in key areas, aiming for a durable feel with a broken-in comfort right away.
For riders who want secure control on spirited street rides or track days, the SP-9 adds a MotoGP-derived SP-R divided TPU knuckle, a long cuff with a dual closure system, and an SP-R TPU palm slider with side hand overlays. Pre-shaped fingers, stretch zones, and a grip insert on the palm and thumb help keep bar feel precise, while perforated leather on the backhand is designed to improve airflow during riding.
The SP-9 Gloves combine full grain goat leather with synthetic leather reinforcement in key zones. Protection details include a MotoGP-derived SP-R divided TPU knuckle and an SP-R TPU palm slider with side hand overlays positioned for added coverage in impact-prone areas. The glove is CE Certified Level 1 KP.
A long cuff design adds extended coverage, and the dual closure system is designed to lock in a secure, personalized fit. This structure helps keep the glove stable during aggressive riding and supports a race-ready feel without relying on bulky construction.
Pre-shaped fingers and stretch fabric in the flex zones and fourchettes help promote dexterity on the controls. A stretch membrane around the thumb base is intended to support grip comfort and reduce tension while braking or using the clutch. Perforated leather on the backhand and mobility details are designed to improve airflow.
Construction
Alpinestars adds a patented finger bridge to the SP-9 Gloves to help prevent finger separation and twisting in a slide. Paired with the glove’s pre-shaped finger construction and stretch zones, it’s a design that targets controlled movement on the bars while keeping the hand supported in demanding street and track-day use.
Comfort
For everyday street riding convenience, the SP-9 Gloves feature E-touch fingertips on select fingers, allowing riders to use smartphones and touchscreen devices without removing the gloves. It’s a practical detail that complements the glove’s performance-oriented fit and long-cuff security for riders who want race-inspired features with street usability.
