There’s nothing quite like blipping the throttle, shifting down a gear and roaring through a corner. It’s a magical feeling that never gets old, and it’s the inspiration behind our first glove design.
Constructed from premium goat leather, the ‘Blip’ glove is super soft, yet extremely durable and abrasion resistant. To provide the ultimate amount of flex, we’ve designed the entire top panel to conform the shape of your hand, no matter what position it’s in. The simple palm design allows the rider to ‘feel’ their motorcycle while the slim fit prevents the glove from bunching up. We’ve also stitched a conductive material into the thumb and index fingertips that allows you to use any touch device without having to remove your gloves.
This unique combination of premium materials and technical features results in one of the most comfortable and functional gloves you’ll ever own.

I met Akin brand through IG and immediately it caught all of my attention on the design itself.
I questioned Max and we exchanged some thoughts over mail and I pressed the Checkout button!
The gloves fit "Like a glove", they look and feel awesome. Just like a second skin, with all of the sensibility and the superb design is just a plus! They are my summer and mid-season gloves all the way!
If you are in doubt. don't be - Buy them!
For me the Holy Grail of gloves!
Exactly what I've been looking for.
Perfect fit, outstanding quality and price.

Hard to imagine a better fitting glove than these! I love them. Was looking for a glove that offered complete control and flexibility. The Blip Gloves do just that. They also happen to look *amazing*. Tempted to buy the brown ones too! (Separate note: I also own the IRONBARK RIDING SHIRT and pads. All outstanding!)
Thanks Josh! We really appreciate the feedback and multiple orders. We're only a small brand, so it really does mean a lot to us!
Ordered a little over 2 weeks ago but took a while to get here, Georgia, USA, due to current worldwide shipping issues, but ... they are absolutely worth the wait! These gloves are fantastic! Akin has raised the bar, very high, for both form and function. As for function, they fit as if they were tailor-made for my hands, the sizing directions were perfect. Excellent dexterity, almost as if I were barehanded. Easily operated my phone, as well. They're just so very comfortable and pleasantly warm, fully isolating one's hands from the elements. As for form, they just look damn good, too! This sort of craftsmanship is a very rare thing and I very, VERY much appreciate it. I fully believe these will be a "legacy" item that I pass on one day. It's also rare to get this kind of value for your money. Akin has well-earned my patronage and made a customer for life, and I will surely be showing them to friends and family and telling them where they can get their own.
Great fit, size guide is pretty spot on for these. Super comfortable. Quick shipping. Just ordered the wrench jacket and hoping for more of the same
Hey Zach! Thanks for the great review! Stoked you like the gloves.
