LIMITATIONS ON USE

Despite the protection levels indicated above, gloves will ONLY PROVIDE LIMITED PROTECTION against abrasion or lacerations by blunt

objects or road surfaces and (if ‘KP’ declared) small impacts.
Users must be aware that no glove can provide complete protection against injury of any kind in case of falls, collision, impact, loss

obstacles during an accident.
No guarantees, express or implied, are made regarding the gloves ability to avoid the risk of injury while riding.

SIZING

In order to provide the certified protection it is important that the gloves fit correctly. Gloves are sized based on the circumference of the

palm without the thumb as shown in Figure 1. Take this measurement of your own palm and then use table 2 to convert this to the letter

size (S,M,L) which is on the glove marking.

worn with. Select a starting size of glove from Table 2, put the glove on and adjust the fastening(s).
Glove fastenings are located at the cuff and/or the wrist. The wrist fastening should be pulled as tight as is comfortable and then secured

with the Velcro

strap. The cuff fastening should be closed tight such that it follows closely the jacket sleeve (if worn above the jacket)

or your arm (if worn beneath the jacket). Check that the glove cannot be removed easily by pulling it with your other hand. For waterproof
