The BUCO LEATHER GAUNTLET MOTORCYCLE GLOVES are crafted from chrome-tanned horsehide with an aniline finish, offering durability and a fit tailored for riding. Designed with a focus on safety and comfort, they feature an acrylic pile lining for insulation, making them ideal for winter riding. With roots in equestrian and workwear designs, gauntlet gloves were originally valued for protecting hands and wrists during outdoor activities and factory work. Over time, they gained popularity as essential cold-weather gear, shaped by influences from the era of open-top automobiles and aviation clothing

This style of glove was famously worn by dispatch riders, who depended on its protective qualities during long missions in harsh conditions. Throughout WWII, similar protective leather gloves were produced and issued to motorcyclists, jeep drivers, lorry drivers, and other personnel. During the post-war motorcycle boom of the 1950s, gauntlet gloves evolved with various iterations and styles.
