Great fitting gloves, nice and cool for summer, great feel, but do not last long in a slide. Slid off on my bike in the wet, not going fast as was on a roundabout and globes palm had a massive hole in them after a 1 second slide. Do wish there was a little more protection at the palm. Wife's were the same just not as bad. Jacket and jeans not a mark on them.
Hi Dean,
Thanks for taking the time to share this - and for the thoughtful, balanced feedback. We’re really sorry to see that you and your wife had a spill, but glad to hear you’re both okay.
While it’s tough to see the palm take that kind of damage, the fact that your hand underneath appears uninjured does suggest the gloves did their job in that moment, even if they paid the price to do so. The Grenade gloves are designed as a lightweight, high-feel option for warmer conditions, prioritising comfort and dexterity while still offering protection - but that does mean there are trade-offs compared to heavier, more reinforced designs.
We genuinely appreciate you sharing this experience and the photo with us. Feedback like this is incredibly valuable, especially when it comes from real-world use. I’ve reached out to you directly to see if there’s a way we can support you further and talk through what happened.
Thanks again for taking the time to leave such an honest review, and we hope you’re both back riding comfortably soon.
These are my go to gloves as they are the best fitting, most comfortable gloves I have owned. I just wish they lasted longer. I'm two pairs in and both have unfortualty separated where the elastic seem and glove meet close to the pull tab.
Hey Blake! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review, stoked to hear you’re loving the gloves. That said, it’s definitely concerning that you’ve had two pairs blow out like that.
Shoot us an email at support@akinmoto.com and we’ll get a replacement pair sent out to you free of charge. We always back our gear, so if anything ever pops up, don’t hesitate to reach out.
Also, just a heads up: The latest batch of Grenade Gloves has an updated cuff design to prevent that elastic seam from blowing out.
Order my gloves few years ago, and they are still my go to choice for a summer ride. They are super light, offer descent protection, and they dont take up any space, you can easily chuck them in your back pocket and go get a coffee. Super resilient as well, mine still look like new.
Hey Andrei,
That’s awesome to hear that the Grenade gloves have gone the distance for you! We’re stoked they’ve held up so well and are still your go-to for summer rides. Really appreciate you taking the time to share that feedback.
Ride safe and enjoy those coffee runs!
Super lightweight, they will be great for summer, was hoping for a little more protection. They are very comfortable though. Another great product from Akin Moto, love all of your gear.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, Darren! We’re stoked to hear you find them comfortable and lightweight – that’s exactly what we aimed for with summer riding in mind. The gloves feature CellArmour knuckle protection and a leather palm for abrasion resistance, but delivering a high level of protection while keeping them lightweight for summer is always a delicate balance. We totally get that some riders would like a bit more protection, so we really appreciate your feedback!
Thank you again for your support and kind words – it means a lot to hear from riders who love our gear as much as we do!
I ordered the gloves to Germany. Shipping took about three weeks. The gloves feel very high-quality and fit perfectly on my hand. Also, they provide a good feel on the handlebars.
Thank you
Thanks so much for the review Patrick. Stoked to hear the gloves made it safely to Germany and that they’re ticking all the right boxes for you! We designed the Grenades to be minimal but still offer that solid grip and comfort on the bars, so it’s great to hear how well they're going. Appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts!
