These gloves combine rugged protection, lasting performance, comfort, everyday versatility, dependable grip, and long-term character.
WHY DO WE THINK THESE ARE THE BEST GLOVES AVAILABLE?
PROTECTION
- Our Lion Guard gloves use full-grain Water Buffalo leather, which is 3x stronger than cow hide.
- Because the hide is neither stretched during tanning nor sanded to remove its natural imperfections, the premium leather fibers remain tightly connected.
- This construction helps shield your hands against wind, rain, hail, rocks, and debris.
DURABILITY
- A dense fiber structure, strong overall construction, and specialized leather treatment create gloves built to last for years.
- Exposure to wet, cold, hot, muddy, or dirty conditions will not compromise this leather glove; instead, it improves with age.
COMFORT
- As time passes, these legacy gloves grow softer and develop a brighter finish while becoming an extension of your hands.
- The flexible, supple leather gradually follows the individual shape of each hand for a personalized fit.
USABLITY
- Since these black leather motorcycle gloves can guard your hands against flying debris, asphalt, and the open road, they are suitable for nearly any other setting as well.
- One dependable pair can replace the need for five separate pairs of gloves.
GRIP
- Strong Water Buffalo leather adapts to your hands, providing a confident, firm, secure, non-slip hold for whatever your journey demands.
LONGEVITY
- These gloves gradually become part of your hands and your story, lasting longer than most gloves along the way.

Sizing

- Begin by measuring around your palm beneath the knuckles
- Use the chart below to determine your size
- If your measurement falls between two sizes, select the larger option
- The gloves are intentionally made slightly smaller because they stretch over time
- At first, the gloves may feel very stiff, similar to a new baseball mitt. Water Buffalo leather is extremely tough and requires time to loosen
NOTE: The model shown measured at size 9 (per below chart) and fits XL perfectly, which is tight out of the box.

Why are they 3 times stronger?
- Buffalo hide contains an epidermal layer that is 3 times thicker than the equivalent layer in cow hide.
- Because the buffalo hide is left unstretched throughout tanning, it remains thicker and resists tearing more effectively.
- This particular glove also uses “Full Grain” leather, recognized as one of the best quality leathers available. Full Grain means the hide’s imperfections remain intact, which gives the finished leather exceptional strength and durability.
