Icon Hypersport Short Gloves Item # 668566
Description
ICON is always searching for the upper hand; we've found it with the Hypersport Short glove. The materials and construction of the Hypersport Short glove have been purposely chosen for their innate abilities to provide this advantage. The AxSuede Laredo chassis is paired with goatskin palm overlays and diamond stitch accents located in areas of high wear from grips. The palm sliders are in case of high-velocity asphalt encounters. Key construction techniques include ICON's exclusive floating knuckle, which allows for maximum knuckle articulation, and an out-seamed finger box for all-day comfort. The Hypersport Short gloves feature full knuckle coverage from the vented TPU/Polycarbonate knuckle plates. A wrist hook & loop closure allows for a secure fit.
Features:
- AxSuede Laredo Chassis
- BattleHide goatskin palm overlays
- Floating knuckle with D3O underlay
- TPU and polycarbonate knuckle plates
- TPU finger plates
- Wrap-around TPU wrist plate
- Perforated ventilation panels
- Articulated fingers
- Out-seam finger construction
- Hook and loop wrist closure

Excellent fit
I bought these gloves because the ones I had didn't have any palm or wrist armor. These gloves fit perfectly if you use the size chart Fortnine provides the palm and wrist armour are nice and solid bit also are not noticeable when using the bike controls I thought I'd have to break them in but they were not stiff at all when they arrived and the vents keep my usually sweaty hands nice and cool

Great gloves
Bought these not to long ago. I’ve only taken the bike out a couple of time but so far, these are very comfortable summer gloves. The air flow in these are insane. Bought them during the winter months so I made sure to wear them a few times to get the stiffness out. Can’t say much more than that as I haven’t had a long enough ride to evaluate everything about these!

Great buy
Bought these to use in the summer on those super hot days! Very breathable, great protection. One of the only shorty gloves that I found that has the finger bridge which is why I bought them

Great riding gloves
I really like the double layered palm and outer edge panels for added safety as well as the sliders on the palm. Lots of airflow so these are summer only gloves. Only downside is that they are not super comfortable as I can feel the stitches inside when my fingers rub against the insides. For the price, they are a good pair of gloves.

Fit is small protection is good
I’ve had these for a little more than a year now. I used the sizing chart and they were really tight at first even making my hand go a little numb. Took a while to break in but now they fit ok. Excellent feel of controls, good protection though they are short. My hands don’t sweat in them…they’re for warm weather only. Seams look a little goofy but they’re holding up. I bought black and white so they look a little Ricky Ranger. Can’t use them with a phone. I might repeat this purchase when I have to but in black.

First impressions were these look a little silly. Huge knuckles with a gap behind looked odd at first. I like the black and brown 2 tone. Purchased a Small and they are indeed small, finger length was good, however once the strap is done up they are very tight around the thumb area, so wear them loose. Will have to break them in a bit.

Questions
Are these pre-curved? And how painful/annoying are the stitches on the inside? Thanks!
I'm worried about the velcro on the gloves. Can anyone give a small review on the durability? MY Scorpion gloves have Velcro and they don't work good always comes undone. Does it seem like over time the velcro isen't as good / degraded?
I’ve had these gloves for two seasons now, I think the Velcro has held up well, still using these gloves. I say for the price, they are good
