DescriptionThe whole story▼
Crafted in striking race-red and shaped by Spidi's decades of motorsport heritage, the Carbo 5 Sport is a men's leather motorcycle glove that marries Italian design flair with serious on-road protection — a combination that looks as purposeful as it performs.
Key Features
- Perforated cowhide leather at 0.6–0.8 mm thickness delivers high abrasion resistance with a confident, direct feel at the handlebar
- Superfabric® panels provide exceptional tear, cut and puncture resistance in the highest-stress zones
- Carbon inserts add structural impact protection without unnecessary bulk
- Keramide reinforcements across the palm deliver targeted abrasion defence exactly where it counts in a slide
- High-resistance Clarino Velour microfibre inner palm ensures a secure, fatigue-free grip on long sport rides
- Accordion stretch sections and an adjustable wrist and cuff closure system keep the glove locked in position through aggressive cornering
Design, Finish and Heritage
The red colourway of the Carbo 5 Sport is not an afterthought — it is a direct nod to Spidi's racing roots, where colour coordination between gloves, suit and helmet is part of the craft. The vivid red leather pairs naturally with sport bikes and racing leather suits, giving the rider a coherent, track-inspired aesthetic without sacrificing a millimetre of functionality. Every seam placement and panel transition reflects the ergonomic geometry Spidi has refined through decades of grand prix development.
Protection and Certification
The Carbo 5 is certified to PSA EN 13594:2015 Level 1 and complies with EU directive 89/686/EEC, confirming it meets the European standard for motorcycle protective gloves. The protection architecture is layered and deliberate:
- Warrior protection panels on the outer sides of the hand
- Keramide reinforcements on the inner palm
- Inner palm padding for shock absorption
- Knuckle padding on the back of the hand
- Outer-hand side padding
- Carbon structural elements for additional impact resistance
Together these elements safeguard the most vulnerable areas of the hand during a fall or high-intensity riding load.
Ergonomics and Fit
The Carbo 5 Sport is engineered around a sport-specific hand geometry. The adjustable wrist closure, secure cuff fastening and double gauntlet system work in combination to eliminate unwanted glove movement at speed. Accordion stretch panels at key articulation points allow the fingers and palm to move freely without the glove pulling or bunching, preserving the precise feedback that sport riding demands.
Ventilation and Comfort
Perforated leather across the back of the hand encourages continuous airflow, helping to keep the hands cool and dry on extended sport rides where heat build-up inside a close-fitting glove would otherwise become a distraction. At an average weight of approximately 0.4 kg per pair, the Carbo 5 strikes a well-considered balance between robust protection and all-day wearability.
Fitment and Compatibility
Designed for male riders. Available in men's sizes S, M, L, XL, XXL and XXXL. The sport-specific cut is intended for use on sport and supersport motorcycles where a precise, close-to-bar fit is preferred. Intended use: sport road riding.
