RST Pro Series GP D3O Motorcycle Leather Gloves | Men's | Black | 103715

Built from 100% kangaroo AST-R leather and loaded with the most comprehensive protection package RST has ever put into a race glove, the Pro Series GP D3O in black is engineered for riders who accept nothing less than absolute performance. It takes everything that made the TracTech EVO series legendary and raises the standard — more refined materials, more advanced armour, more racing intent in every stitch.

Key Features

• 100% kangaroo AST-R leather shell — supremely supple yet highly abrasion-resistant for unmatched handlebar feel and durability
• CE Level 2 KP certified — the highest protection rating available for motorcycle gloves
• Carbon knuckle protector with integrated D3O — forged carbon structure backed by intelligent impact-absorbing material
• D3O protection at the palm and thumb — adaptive impact management exactly where slides begin
• Kevlar reinforcement in impact zones with Kevlar stitching throughout — structural integrity when it counts most
• Pre-curved fingers and Motion Panels — ergonomic fit that works with your grip, not against it
• 2-year manufacturer's warranty — RST's commitment to the quality of every component

Premium Materials, Race-Proven Construction

The choice of kangaroo AST-R leather is the clearest signal that the Pro Series GP D3O occupies a different tier from most race gloves on the market. Kangaroo hide combines a fine grain with outstanding tensile strength, meaning the glove sits closer to the hand, transmits more feedback through the controls, and resists abrasion with less bulk than conventional cowhide. The brushed polyester inner lining complements that close fit, reducing friction and keeping the glove comfortable during extended stints on track or road.

Kevlar is woven into the highest-stress impact zones and used for the internal stitching itself — a construction detail that maintains seam integrity under the kind of loads that would split a conventionally sewn glove. This is a glove built to survive the crash, not just look the part.

Advanced Protection Architecture

RST describes the Pro Series GP D3O as the most highly specified race glove in their range, and the protection layout reflects that ambition. The forged carbon knuckle protector is paired with D3O — the soft, intelligent material that stiffens instantly on impact — to deliver rigid outer structure and energy-absorbing compliance in the same package. D3O is also positioned at the palm and thumb, the zones most exposed in a low-side slide.

Ergonomics and Fit for High-Speed Riding

A race glove that fights your natural grip position costs you precision at exactly the wrong moment. RST's pre-curved finger construction mirrors the hand's resting position on the bar, so the glove sits correctly from the first corner. Out-stitched fingers reduce internal pressure points that can dull feel over a long session. Motion Panels maintain flexibility across the back of the hand, and the conjoined little finger adds lateral stability without compromising dexterity — a detail borrowed directly from dedicated race-spec designs.

The hook-and-loop wrist closure locks the glove in place at any speed, eliminating the creep and shift that can undermine your feel for the controls during aggressive riding.

Fitment and Compatibility

The RST Pro Series GP D3O gloves are designed for men and are available in sizes 7/XS through to 12/XXL. The pre-curved fit and close-cut kangaroo leather construction are optimised for sport and supersport riding positions — equally at home on a race circuit or a demanding back road.
