Alpinestars Tech-1 Start v4 Nomex Racing Gloves The Alpinestars Tech-1 Start v4 Nomex Gloves are engineered to deliver lightweight protection, direct steering feedback, and a close anatomical fit. A newly developed single-panel upper and reduced-material finger construction help minimize bulk without sacrificing the coverage required for competitive motorsport. The Tech-1 Start v4 is built around the way a driver naturally holds the steering wheel. Box-cut fingertips, strategically printed silicone grip zones, and a straight extended cuff work together to improve comfort, control, and ease of entry. Certified to the SFI 3.2/5A standard, these gloves are a strong choice for drivers who want dependable protection and a clean, performance-focused design. Reduced-Material Finger Design The Tech-1 Start v4 uses an innovative finger construction designed to reduce excess fabric around the hand. Removing unnecessary material helps the glove feel lighter and improves sensitivity when operating the steering wheel, shifter, switches, and other cockpit controls. The streamlined construction also reduces bunching inside confined cockpits, where precise hand movement and consistent steering feel are especially important. Single-Panel Upper Construction A single upper panel creates a smoother, more uniform fit across the back of the hand. Fewer material transitions help reduce pressure points and allow the glove to move naturally as the fingers flex around the steering wheel. This simplified construction also contributes to the glove’s low overall weight and clean exterior appearance. Box-Cut Fingertips The ring and middle fingers use a box-cut fingertip design without traditional fourchettes. This construction eliminates unnecessary side panels in key areas and creates a more anatomical shape around the fingertips. The result is a closer fit with less material between the driver and the controls, helping improve dexterity in tight cockpit environments. Silicone-Printed Palm Grip Ergonomically positioned silicone zones are printed across the palm to improve steering-wheel traction. The grip pattern is placed in the areas that experience the greatest contact during cornering, braking, and rapid steering inputs. The silicone surface provides control without adding a thick layer between the hand and the wheel, preserving tactile feedback and helping the driver maintain a relaxed grip. Straight Extended Cuff The Tech-1 Start v4 features a close-fitting, straight extended cuff that provides additional wrist coverage and dependable overlap with a compatible racing suit sleeve. An elasticated wrist helps hold the glove securely in place while keeping the entry opening flexible enough for quick on-and-off use between sessions. Lightweight Cockpit-Focused Fit Every major design feature is intended to reduce unnecessary weight and bulk. The single-panel upper, compact finger construction, and low-profile grip zones create a glove that feels responsive without becoming restrictive. This close fit is especially beneficial for drivers working with small steering wheels, paddle shifters, radio controls, data-system buttons, and other tightly packaged cockpit equipment. SFI 3.2/5A Certified Protection The Alpinestars Tech-1 Start v4 Gloves are certified to the SFI 3.2/5A standard. This certification makes them suitable for many racing organizations that require approved fire-resistant driver gloves. Drivers should confirm the exact certification requirements of their sanctioning body before competition.

The Tech-1 Start v4 takes a different approach by simplifying the upper and reshaping the fingers around the driver’s natural hand position. This design helps the glove feel lighter, cleaner, and more connected to the steering wheel. The silicone palm adds traction where it is needed, while the extended cuff and elasticated wrist keep the glove securely positioned throughout a session. Alpinestars Tech-1 Start v4 Nomex Glove Size Chart Frequently Asked Questions What is the benefit of the single-panel upper?The single-panel design reduces seams, bulk, and material transitions across the back of the hand, creating a smoother and lighter fit. What does box-cut fingertip construction mean?The ring and middle fingers are shaped without traditional side-panel fourchettes, reducing excess material and improving the anatomical fit.
