DetailsVerified Customer Reviews for Klim Adventure Gore-Tex Short Leather Gloves
Superb quality
08 October 2024 by David M
I recently splashed out on these Klim adventure gore tex gloves.
I needed some heavier duty waterproof gloves and these really tickled my fancy.
I'm impressed with the quality, fit and comfort although they are fairly bulky on the controls, indicator switch particularly. hopefully a bit more wear will alleviate any issues.
overall I'm very happy with my purchase and really impressed with the swift (next day) delivery from sportsbikeshop
thanks a lot

Highly Recommended

I purchased a pair of Klim Adventure Gore-Tex Short Leather Gloves in size L and Asphalt colour to complete my Klim gear collection of Latitude jacket and pants, Outlander Gore-Text boots and Dakar Pro lightweight gloves.
After much deliberation between size L and XL, I originally purchased these gloves in XL, but quickly realised they were going to be too large once worn in, so replaced with the L size. They were initially VERY snug, but I was confident that they would give enough after a few wears to be comfortable - and I am happy to say that has been the case, they are now very comfortable.
I am generally not a fan of heavier gloves, much preferring thinner, lighter gloves, but the quality of design, materials and construction of these means that they are very comfortable to wear. They are completely waterproof and have been tested riding through hours of rain and storms.
The usual Klim glove design features such as the wrist loop making it easier to pull on the glove and also the left hand index finger visor wipe strip work really well.
Overall, I can highly recommend the Klim Adventure Gore-Tex Short Leather Gloves.

Single skin waterproof leather gloves.
16 September 2024 by Gavin
As another reviewer said, these are basically the only leather gtx gloves that are thin. I bought them for summer Euro tours and "summers" at home.
Lot of reviews say they were small fitting. I went for my normal XL sizing and they fitted (eventually). The eventually is because I originally bought black XLs. The right was a reasonable fit but roomy and the left was too big!
I've never had issues with different sized hands before. Leather gloves will give over time so I definitely didn't want them starting on the large side. SBS didn't have any large in stock so I returned and reordered Anthracite XLs. Good fit both hands!
My previous comparable gloves were Rukka Variums. I wanted more protection or at least the feeling of more protection. They've given me that, and for me the heel of the hand protection is better placed than the Rukkas.
They are 'short cuff' which I wanted to get them under my jacket. The variums would fit under but it was a phaf and not what they were designed for.
They feel a bit bulkier than the variums and the visor wipe sits out high, probably a good thing as it'll keep the glove away from the visor? Only used in rain once so far and they worked well.
Overall I'm happy and 5 stars.

Very nice summer/wet gloves
25 May 2024 by Paul K
Probably one of the best summer wet gloves available, BUT!!! mine are brand new and have ripped pulling them on across the pull tab.
I know sports bike will replace them, and other than that, nice bit of kit

New Gloves
05 March 2024 by Glenn
I done a lot of research on these gloves, my only problem was size. Ordered large & medium. medium was perfect. Not a cheap item but money well spent for quality product. Sent the large back via free returns policy. Definitely recommend these gloves

Quality shines through
17 May 2023 by Pete B
Very well made and superbly comfortable from the very start. I went for a size up so I could get an under glove underneath to extend across the seasons as there's no insulation in these at all so I'd suspect using these in spring and autumn is a stretch without under gloves. The pull on strap is also very useful. Not used in rain yet but I'm sure they will be fine being Gore-Tex.

Really nice quality leather gore-tex glove, they have slightly longer fingers than other gloves in the same size XL that I own, but a great glove and palm fit

Klim adventure glove
17 January 2023 by David H
I am a size 10, and got the 2xl, perfect fit, these gloves are not the warmest for winter rinding, suggest a Marino wool liner or heated grips, but overall a fantastic looking glove, excellent quality

Expensive but Quality
06 September 2021 by Richard S
These gloves are fantastic for 3 season riding - too cold for deep winter riding but the again they are not advertised as winter gloves. I love the feel as they are supple and thin leather where needed with good layered protection in impact areas. Sportsbikeshop advised on their website that these gloves have been discontinued so I asked if they had any shop stock left to sell - they only had the ones on show in the showroom so I tried them and bought them. They still have other colours left (brown and grey) but I wanted black to match a Klim Lattitude jacket. Works perfect with the (too small) cuffs of the jacket.
Very happy with my purchase and I was given a discount for a showroom item so I saw this as good deal.

Super Gloves
04 May 2021 by Nigel S
Quality Gloves, really well made easy to pull on with the tabs. The Gloves fit is quite large. I normally fit a large but had to exchange for a medium. Service from Sportsbike was swift and efficient

General nice fit
08 October 2020 by Malcolm
Nice pair of gloves, no fiddling with loose liner, everything is attached to the inside.
The index finger seam around the base is a bit narrow. Considering if that will become an issue when the cold hits...

Exellent
18 May 2020 by Phil M
A very nice glove. Extremely well made. As with all leather gloves they need breaking in but these are comfortable from the first wear. So should be like putting on a favourite pair of erm... gloves. A pricey item but you get what you pay for. If your looking for quality waterproof summer gloves then you won't go far wrong with these.

Overpiced
14 April 2020 by Marius
Don't know why every other rating is so high while this product is not better than any cheap goretex gloves. Well my opinion is that people who buy Klim buy it for name not quality as I use Held products and decide to see the amazing miracle of Klim and nope it's just normal overpiced Goretex gloves. They has cuts on top of fingers to be more elastic but on the other hand it catch win and push water by wind force tot that opening which case even goretex to leak. So for designe I will give 0 pints but for how well it is build I will give 4 points for 5.

Great Gloves
21 September 2019 by Nick M
Well made and comfortable gloves. I have found many gloves with an extra layer of leather across the palm/thumb to catch on the edge of the grip when operating the indicator switch - these gloves do not suffer from that problem. A quality product.

Comfortable Glove
05 September 2019 by Nick M
A very comfortable glove - I do limited winter riding but these are ideal for the conditions I ride in - warm enough and waterproof, but not ridiculously bulky ... and they don't have that annoying leather reinforcement part way up the inside of the thumb that catches when using the indicators. Very pleased with them!
