Championship-grade structural integrity defines the GP Tech v2 through its seamless, over-injected dual-density knuckle armor and robust leather-textile hybrid construction. Built specifically for the high-stakes demands of off-road and track racing, this glove utilizes a kangaroo palm construction with stretch inserts to maximize abrasion resistance in critical contact zones. The architecture is further reinforced by a race-proven finger bridge and side-hand reinforcement, ensuring that the glove maintains its shape and protective envelope even under the extreme lateral forces and repeated impacts inherent to professional motorcycle competition.
Precision ergonomics and advanced airflow management ensure that dexterity and comfort remain uncompromised during extended high-intensity riding sessions. The design incorporates accordion flexion zones on the control fingers and a stretch backhand panel, allowing for unrestricted freedom of movement and precise throttle and brake modulation. This is complemented by external finger seams that blend tactile feel with flexibility, while the new cuff DFS (Dual Friction System) and over-injected fingertip sliders provide optimized grip and friction control, preventing slippage without sacrificing the natural hand position required for race-level control.
Multi-layered impact mitigation technology delivers certified-level protection through viscoelastic backhand and finger layers paired with ARshield reinforcement. These specialized materials are strategically placed on the backhand, landing zones, and fingertips to absorb and dissipate kinetic energy from high-velocity impacts, offering a superior safety margin against abrasion and blunt force trauma. The combination of the ergonomic knuckle protector’s total coverage and the dual-closure system ensures a secure, custom-fit seal that keeps the protective elements locked in place, providing the mechanical reliability and safety confidence expected from Alpinestars’ professional racing lineup.
