Combining water-resistant Softshell-fabric topside construction with a palm in Amara synthetic leather, and featuring genuine leather reinforcements for enhanced protection and durability, this glove uses our signature solutions for weatherproofing and thermal insulation. These include a 5_DRYTECH™ waterproof*, breathable membrane and 5_WARMTECH™ integrated thermal insulation (200g on the topside / 60g on the palm), offering you protection against the rain and cold. One of the characteristics of the 5_DRYTECH™ membrane is that it’s perfectly bonded with the palm, for optimal grip on the handlebars and impeccable fit.
In terms of safety, the WFX3 Evo WP offers the latest generation of ERGO PROTECH® ergonomic protective shells developed by FIVE, along with reflective elements that are so useful in winter, when the days are shorter, to help you stay visible to others on the road. Its dual-closure system also provides an additional guarantee of safety. In terms of practicality, the Touch Screen™ system on the index finger allows you to handle your GPS or smartphone touchscreens without taking your gloves off.
* A waterproof membrane does not mean unlimited waterproof. The waterproofness depends on the quality of the membrane. Are you looking for 100% waterproof? Then select motorcycle gloves with a GoreTex membrane.

Motorcycle gear comes in various levels of waterproofness, which is important for comfort and safety during wet rides. Most waterproof jackets, pants, gloves, and footwear have a membrane that prevents water from penetrating the outer layer. These products keep you dry, but there's a limit to how much they can penetrate. A waterproof membrane doesn't mean 100% waterproof. With prolonged exposure to rain or under high pressure, the outer layer can still let moisture through. This means you could get wet after longer rides in heavy rain, especially in areas where the fabric moves intensively or where seams are less well-protected.
Looking for 100% waterproof? Then choose a product with a Gore-Tex membrane. Gore-Tex is a specially designed membrane that is both waterproof and breathable. The membrane contains microscopic pores that are too small for water droplets to penetrate, but large enough to allow water vapor (sweat) to escape. This keeps rain and spray out, while your body heat and moisture are wicking away. You will ride dry and comfortable, even in prolonged or heavy rain.
In short: regular waterproof motorcycle clothing keeps out short(er) rainshowers, while Gore-Tex effectively protects against prolonged rain and at the same time provides breathable comfort.
