The grip pattern helps prevent unwanted hand movement while allowing the driver to maintain control without squeezing the wheel excessively tightly. Improved traction can help reduce hand fatigue while supporting consistent steering inputs during longer races and practice sessions. Mesh and Lycra Finger Construction The finger fourchettes combine mesh panels with Lycra sections to create a balance of ventilation, stretch, and comfort. Mesh promotes airflow between the fingers, while Lycra allows the glove to flex naturally as the hand moves. This mixed-material construction helps preserve a close fit without restricting finger movement or steering-wheel feedback. Pre-Curved Race Fit The fingers and palm are shaped in a pre-curved driving position that follows the natural form of the hand while gripping a kart steering wheel. This reduces excess material and helps prevent bunching across the palm and fingers. The ergonomic shape supports a more natural hand position and helps the glove feel comfortable from the moment it is worn. Internal-Seam Construction The Tech-1 K Race v2 Advance uses internal seams for a traditional karting-glove fit. Lightweight materials, flexible finger panels, and the pre-curved design work together to minimize pressure points while keeping the glove close to the hand. Open Cuff with Elasticated Wrist Alpinestars’ open-cuff design makes the gloves easy to put on and remove. A 180-degree elasticated wrist stretches during entry and then fits securely around the wrist to help prevent the glove from shifting while driving. The gauntlet-style cuff also provides comfortable coverage between the glove and karting suit sleeve. Touchscreen-Compatible Fingertips Touch-compatible printing on the thumb and index finger allows drivers to operate many smartphones, lap timers, and touchscreen electronics without removing the gloves. This feature makes it easier to review timing data, adjust mobile applications, and use devices between heats.

Alpinestars Tech-1 K Race v2 Vertical Karting Gloves The Alpinestars Tech-1 K Race v2 Vertical Karting Gloves combine lightweight construction, responsive steering-wheel grip, and a bold digital design for recreational and competitive kart racers. Polyester bonded with polymesh provides a flexible, breathable feel while helping the gloves withstand regular track use. Internal seams create a traditional close-fitting profile, while the synthetic suede palm offers durability and direct steering feedback. Ergonomically positioned silicone printing across the palm and fingers increases traction, helping drivers maintain confident control throughout practice sessions, qualifying runs, and races. Lightweight Performance for Warm Karting Conditions The Tech-1 K Race v2 Vertical uses a lightweight polyester-mesh construction designed to provide excellent feel and enhanced comfort in warm weather. The flexible upper follows the shape of the hand without adding unnecessary bulk between the driver and steering wheel. This breathable construction makes the glove especially useful for indoor karting, summer competition, and extended track sessions where heat and moisture can reduce comfort. Synthetic Suede Palm for Durability and Feel The palm is constructed from synthetic suede to balance wear resistance with steering sensitivity. It creates a durable contact surface without the heavy or padded sensation that can reduce feedback from the wheel. The close palm construction allows drivers to feel subtle changes in steering resistance and make precise corrections through technical corners. Ergonomic Silicone Palm Grip Strategically placed silicone printing across the palm and fingers improves traction against the steering wheel. This added grip helps limit unwanted hand movement during aggressive steering inputs, braking zones, and high-load corners. Because the silicone surface helps hold the wheel securely, drivers can maintain control without squeezing excessively tightly, which may help reduce fatigue over longer sessions. Mesh and Lycra Finger Fourchettes The finger construction combines mesh fourchettes on one half of the fingers with Lycra panels on the other half. This combination provides a balance of airflow, flexibility, and durability. The mesh sections encourage ventilation between the fingers, while the Lycra panels stretch naturally as the hand opens, closes, and moves around the steering wheel. Pre-Curved Finger and Palm Design The fingers and palm are shaped in a pre-curved driving position that follows the natural form of the hand while holding a kart steering wheel. This design helps reduce material bunching around the fingers and palm. A more natural driving shape supports consistent steering feel and reduces the resistance that can occur when a flat glove is forced into a gripping position. Internal-Seam Construction The Tech-1 K Race v2 Vertical uses internal seams for a traditional karting-glove fit. The lightweight materials, flexible fourchettes, and pre-curved shape work together to maintain comfort while keeping the glove close to the hand.
