SPARK

Posted by david@ukiyo |

The city glove that makes sparks fly.

A new product in the urban range, the SPARK is a first-rate choice for those looking for a comfortable, elegant glove that includes dynamic features inspired by sport-style gloves. Though it is clearly meant for urban use, it includes a honeycombed ERGO PROTECH® metacarpal protective shell, hidden underneath stretch fabric that is textured for stylish flair. Its full-grain leather palm hosts a soft slider shell that will protect its riders in case of a fall, without hindering their grip on the controls. Slipping on the glove is now easier with the addition of a Lycra® inset underneath the velcro adjustment tab. Equipped with the Touch Screen™ on the thumb and index finger, it allows you to zoom in on the screen using two fingers on your smartphone or tactile GPS. You can also easily match your SPARK to your everyday looks with its trendy colors: khaki, midnight blue, or black. Why not add all three to your wardrobe? It’s enough to make the sparks fly each time you head out for a ride.

 

  • Textured stretch polyester fabric on topside
  • Supple full-grain goat leather palm
  • ERGO PROTECH® one-piece metacarpal-knuckle protective shell with internal honeycombed structure, hidden underneath material
  • ERGO PROTECH® soft TPR protective shell on hypothenar (palm slider)
  • Ultra-tough stretch Nylon fourchettes between the fingers
  • Foam protective reinforcements on ring and pinky fingers
  • Velcro tab closure system with Lycra® comfort gusset

Posted by david@ukiyo |

Ride in the city, with style.

When you have to ride a motorcycle or scooter in the city, you might as well do it in style. The FLOW seeks to be elegant, comfortable, and practical, for everyday wear. It’s easy to slip on and off, due to the inviting shape of its wrist and its integrated adjustment tab, It’s also protective, with its goat leather palm and honeycombed ERGO PROTECH® shell hidden underneath the tough and flexible stretch nylon that makes up its topside construction. The FLOW prioritizes suppleness, freedom of movement, and the smooth, sleek texture of its palm. This palm doesn’t come with a shell but is effectively equipped with a large leather reinforcement lined with foam on the hypothenar, to ensure a level of abrasion resistance that could be your saving grace if you take a spill. Equipped with the Touch Screen™ system on the index finger, the FLOW allows you to use your smartphone to find your way or to keep in touch with your tribe. It’s the perfect glove that’s simple, tough, and affordable, to ride in the city with real elegance. Available in black for those who like an understated look, or in black- beige Stripes to show off your unique sense of style.

WFX METRO WP

Posted by david@ukiyo |

The all-leather, ultra-insulated winter glove.

In the guise of a subtle all-leather winter glove for the city, the WFX METRO WP introduces an innovative concept in terms of construction and thermal insulation. Most winter gloves have been made the same way for ages…To put it simply: Thick thermal insulation over the top of the hand, and a finer layer on the palm, all the way up to between the fingers. And here was the weak spot of this traditional construction. The cold ends up getting inside through the fourchettes (which is what the area between the fingers is called). FIVE has reinvented the fundamentals of thermal insulation using a new type of construction called THERMO+™, offering up to 20% greater heat retention, based on PRIMALOFT® insulation, the very best in the field. The concept is quite simple: thick insulation on the topside extends down between the fingers, whereas the thinner insulation is limited to the (flat) base of the palm and fingers. This implies reconsidering all the other elements in the glove, such as the external structure or the weatherproof membrane, in order to maintain perfect suppleness overall and a firm grip on the controls. It’s when you ride in the cold that you understand the point of this Thermo+™ construction. The thicker, denser insulation in the fourchettes constitutes a much more effective thermal barrier and helps keep the hand’s natural heat within the glove for longer. Beyond this innovation, the WFX METRO WP has a rare elegance and outstanding perceived quality, due to its all-over full-grain leather construction. Its all-leather, large adjustment tab, worthy of the finest leather goods, contributes to this positive perception. It features all the elements that are common to most FIVE WP gloves, with its breathable, weatherproof 5_Drytech™ membrane, ERGO PROTECH® shells, and its Touch Screen™ and Clear Vision Pad™ systems. The WFX METRO WP will enchant aficionados of fine materials like leather, taking care to keep your hands warm and dry when temperatures are near freezing.

 

  • Supple full-grain goat leather topside
  • Supple full-grain goat leather palm
  • 5_Drytech™ breathable, weatherproof membrane, partially bonded
  • Innovative FIVE Thermo+ Insulation offering 20% more insulation, includes PrimaLoft® Silver 170 g on topside and 60 g Gold Grip control in palm
  • ERGO PROTECH® one-piece metacarpal-knuckle protective shell with internal honeycombed structure, hidden underneath material
  • ERGO PROTECH® soft TPR protective shell on hypothenar (palm slider)
  • Velcro cuff closure
  • Reflective fabric on pinky finger
  • Touch Screen system™ on index finger and thumb
  • Clear Vision Pad™ on the left hand for wiping helmet visor or goggles
  • CE KP1

WFX DISTRICT WP

Posted by david@ukiyo |

A cocoon against the cold.

Designed for exploring the city in the winter on an everyday basis with nice, warm hands, and wearable underneath your jacket(s), the WFX DISTRICT WP introduces an innovative concept in terms of construction and thermal insulation. Most winter gloves have been made the same way for ages…To put it simply: Thick thermal insulation over the top of the hand, and a finer layer on the palm, all the way up to between the fingers. And here was the weak spot of this traditional construction. The cold ends up getting inside through the fourchettes (which is what the area between the fingers is called).

It’s when you ride in the cold that you understand the point of this Thermo+™ construction. The thicker, denser insulation in the fourchettes constitutes a much more effective thermal barrier and helps keep the hand’s natural heat within the glove for longer. Beyond this innovation, the WFX DISTRICT WP stands out due to its composition that combines a supple, full-grain leather palm, topside construction in water-repellent Softshell fabric, and a ribbed cuff that keeps the warmth inside the glove. Supple and comfortable, it features all the elements that are common to FIVE gloves, with its breathable, weatherproof 5_Drytech™ membrane, ERGO PROTECH® shells, and its Touch Screen™ and Clear Vision Pad™ systems. The WFX DISTRICT WP is made for riders who, persuaded by the ribbed cuff concept (which is well-proven for insulation from the cold), are looking for a discreet, high-performance glove to face the city and its dangers, which are heightened in the winter.
