Alpinestars Tech-1 K Race S V2 Youth Karting Gloves - Superior Grip & Comfort

Lightweight Alpinestars Tech-1 K Race S V2 kart gloves offer young drivers superb grip, ventilation, and feel with a synthetic suede palm, silicone grip print, and touchscreen compatibility. Perfect for kart racing.

The Alpinestars Tech-1 K Race S V2 Gloves are engineered to deliver a perfect blend of durability, comfort, and feel, specifically tailored for the younger karting enthusiast (Junior/Youth sizing). Constructed from a lightweight blend of polyester bonded with polymesh, these gloves ensure maximum breathability and comfort during warm-weather racing. The design focuses on tactile feel and control, featuring internal seams and a synthetic suede leather palm for enhanced comfort and excellent grip on the steering wheel. Control is further improved by an ergonomically designed silicone print across the palm and fingers. Ventilation is optimized with a blend of mesh fourchettes on one half of the fingers and Lycra on the other, promoting continuous airflow and flexibility. For secure wear, the glove utilizes Alpinestars’ open cuff design with a $180^\circ$ elasticated wrist, making for quick and easy entry and a snug fit. A modern convenience is the inclusion of a touch-compatible print on the thumb and index finger, allowing racers to use mobile devices without removing their gloves at the track. Finished with a dynamic, aggressive aesthetic digital print, the Tech-1 K Race S V2 is the choice for serious junior competitors.
