Knox Handroid POD MK V, gloves

Article No.: 11080686

The long-awaited short cuff Handroid Pod MK V has arrived and it’s moved up another gear!

Due to its innovative futuristic look the award winning Handroid Pod is the most striking design of motorcycle glove ever made. The design includes features such as the scaphoid protection system as well as the eye catching exo skeleton finger spines which cover the tops of the fingers for impact protection as well as a unique Boa closing system which always ensures a perfect and secure fit.

The Handroid Pod MK V is visually exciting, with a contemporary printed hexagon leather design.

There is a low profile BOA wrist closure system which has a micro adjustable BOA dial that, for the first time, tightens and loosens so riders can fine tune their glove for the perfect fit. The Boa wrist closure system is a patented system and the collaboration with Boa is exclusive to the Knox brand.

The patented Knox Scaphoid Protection System (SPS) includes Micro-Lock under the pads for added impact absorption and this extends around the edge of the hand for maximum coverage.

The finest, ethically sourced 0.8 mm Kangaroo is used on the palm. The strength and feel offered by this hide is exceptional.

The rest of the glove is made from drum dyed Cowhide.

Scaphoid Protection System

Patented low profile Knox Scaphoid Protection System (SPS) on the palm (Patent No EP1594378) to eliminate the grab effect that occurs when a leather palm makes contact with the road, reducing the risk of hyper extension which can be the cause of a broken scaphoid.

BOA Fit System

Delivering fit solutions purpose-built for performance, the BOA® Fit System consists of three integral parts: a micro-adjustable dial, a super-strong lightweight lace and low friction lace guides. The MK V no longer relies on a secondary retaining wrist strap, but is now a simple 1 step process activated entirely by the BOA® Fit System for a fast, effortless, precision fit.

Metacarpal & Exoskeleton

The striking exoskeleton spines now have a much lower profile, a softer feel and are more aero dynamic than before, yet just as effective.
The metacarpal protector covering the back of the hand houses a gel lining for impact absorption.

Kangoroo leather Palm

Sustainable 0.8mm Kangaroo hide has been selected for its superior strength and enhanced feel on the palm and fingers. By weight, it is still stronger than any other leather. This continues to be sourced from the same Australian family business that have been experts in their field since 1891.
