Fully CE approved gloves with mechanical hand exoskeleton and TPU knuckle protection
DetailsVerified Customer Reviews for Knox Handroid POD Mk IV CE Glove
I've only had the gloves a couple of weeks. So far the build quality seems to be very good, and appears to offer good fall protection. If I had to pick a fault, it would be that the thumb is a little too long for me, but I guess we're all different.
Probably the best glove I have bought so far. Packed with so much technology and protection with style that no other glove has. The sizing chart was bang on and the glove fits well but as with all gloves they need a little breaking in. They look like an aggressive styled glove with that exoskeleton design. Favourite feature is you can use your phone with them on. This is a high quality product 10/10
brought theses gloves to try out and see what all the hype is about, these gloves fit amazing, they are comfortable and give you that extra protection you that hopefully you don't ever need!
Great product, high spec and great protection levels
Bought these ready for good weather as I already have the longer version I use in winter, absolutely love them very comfortable and well made. I highly recommend
These are my first pair of motorcycle gloves, I ride an enduro bike and have come off bikes as a kid a lot, so when I passed my test I went full on safety and these gloves had what I wanted, plus they look mean...
I had a pair of the original full length Handroids and wasn't overly impressed as they creaked and clunked. I thought I'd give the Pods a go and couldn't be happier. These really are the best gloves I have worn in over 40 years of riding - buy some
I've got several different pairs of gloves for different rides and weather conditions. Heated gloves, waterproof gloves, short gloves for summertime etc. I was looking for a pair for everyday use, strong hard wearing and a good fit, as my current general everyday use gloves were looking a bit tired. I bought these and found them a perfect size, a perfect fit, comfortable and probably the best gloves I've ever had. They are good quality, strong, practical, safe and fit for purpose.
Purchased these ready for the new season feel great on can't see them needling much breaking in
Quality product at a fantastic price
Great service from sportsbikeshop
Brought these gloves after hearing great things about them.. wow seriously they are fantastic..comfortable, very well made. I brought a size large .which is what I normally do but the fit was far better than the alphinestars i would normally go for , They do exactly what you would expect and yes they do work on touch screens .. Worth every penny .. definitely will buy again .
These gloves are quality. They feel very supportive and are well made with quality materials. For the first time I think ever the touch screen works. This was a nice surprise because I don't think it was in the review. As with all quality products they need a bit of wearing in. I would recommend theses gloves highly. Protection wise I don't think you could better them.
I already have the long sleeved version of this glove, which is perfect on track giving great protection and superb comfort & feel on the levers
This has exactly the same quality, safety and touch, comfort, feel factors… also Pod version less 'track' looking for normal road riding
I'm probably near the edge on my jacket sleeve length just meeting the glove, as I need smaller sized jackets for body fit… but have long arms….. but acceptable protection
I've been an Alpine Stars glove user for many years, thinking they were the best.
Enter the Android Pod, and easily kicks the king off the throne (for me)
Well made, excellent fit and really comfortable out of the bag. If, as some of the other reviews say, they wear in to be even more comfortable, then happy days, they will be the perfect hand protection.
I really like the fastening system, it's easy to use and makes the gloves feel comfortable and snug, without that restrictive "handcuff" feeling.
Definitely my go to glove now.
Feel like a really quality made glove obviously only time will tell. Now days with sportsbikes are over decided to go for a shorter glove only criticism is if you wear a smart watch your tightening the boa system over your watch. Previously I had tst race tech gloves which were great these do feel better made. Only time will tell if there worth twice the price. Overall quality gloves great fit other than the thumb being a touch on the long side need a little breaking in but initial impressions are they are a quality glove. As far as asthetics go there all black and look seriously cool.
These are really great gloves. Owned previous incarnation, which lasted 6 years. This version is even slicker with a better fastening system. Very comfortable for all day riding.
Purchased these to replace a 12 year old pair.
Great fit, looks the business & delivered within 48hrs.
Using the size chart I got the Large which are a snug fit, especially on the tip of my thumbs. But, they feel well made and the protection levels are without doubt. They are moulding to fit my hands and are getting more comfortable.
These are incredibly well made, look the business, and feel amazing. Size is true to fit, I'm a large and these were perfect. Not too much breaking in required, the leather is very supple and the palms are soft. If I could point out a couple of issues I would say the plastic armour on top is a little off centre on the little fingers causing a slight rubbing, and the ends of the fingers on the inside have bunched material that's a bit uncomfortable. Other than that, brilliant gloves
Knox Handroid POD Mk IV CE Glove - Black
- Lightweight 0.8mm drum dyed leather construction
- Sustainable 0.8mm Kangaroo leather on palm
- Low profile, aerodynamic exoskeleton spines for impact and abrasion resistance
- Low friction SPS Impact scaphoid sliders to prevent wrist hyperextension
- MICRO-LOCK impact protection under the slider
- The short cuff is constructed in soft cowhide
- Low profile Boa cuff closure
- Box construction of the fingers for comfort
The Knox Handroid POD MKIV motorcycle glove is the short cuff version of the Handroid MKIV. Set to be the "go to" style for every rider preferring an easy to wear shorter style. The Handroid Motorcycle Gloves set the standard for motorcycle sports gloves, due to the unique design and look, including the famous exoskeleton finger spines for impact and abrasion resistance. The challenge for Knox was to make the evolved Handroid MKIV glove accessible to urban riders as well as sports riders. The result is a sleek and modern short cuff motorcycle glove. The striking exoskeleton spines have a much lower profile, a softer feel and are more aerodynamic than before, yet just as effective. All high points have been replaced by smooth slick mouldings made in strong but soft TPU, with a metacarpal protector covering the back of the hand which houses a gel lining for impact absorption. The Handroid MKIV still uses only the very highest quality materials, lightweight 0.8mm drum dyed leather from Korea chosen for its lightweight, strength and supple hand feel. Sustainable 0.8mm Kangaroo leather has been selected for its superior strength and enhanced feel on the palm and fingers as it is, weight for weight, stronger than any other leather. The SPS Impact is a development of the Knox patented Scaphoid protection system and has the added benefit of MICRO-LOCK impact protection under the slider. The short cuff is constructed in soft cowhide and fits comfortably over the wrist. The continued collaboration with Boa to improve the wrist closure system has resulted in a dial system that is lower in profile and is a simple one-step dial-in system that is much more comfortable and secure. The cuff itself can be worn inside or outside the sleeve of most jackets. Fit and comfort have been significantly improved with a box construction of the fingers, making it more comfortable than its predecessors. Meticulous attention is given to the construction.
