Strange Fit
Men's XL size is tight...and the fingers waay too long. Never seen anything like this before. Looks like they were made for some Alien Being in a Sci-Fi Moviw. Good Material & Workmanship...Stitching, etc., ...But...???
Highway 21 builds riding jackets, gloves, boots and rain gear aimed at V-twin riders who want protection that still looks right on a cruiser rather than a track bike.
The Highway 21 Recoil gloves in tan are crafted from genuine goat skin leather with a reinforced padded palm, designed specifically for V-twin riders. Featuring a durable YKK® cuff zipper and impact protection, these gloves are a reliable choice for Harley-Davidson and Indian Motorcycle owners seeking everyday hand protection.
These Highway 21 Recoil gloves are built for the demands of the road, offering a blend of protection, comfort, and classic style. The genuine goat skin leather provides excellent abrasion resistance and a supple feel, while the reinforced padded palm enhances grip and reduces fatigue. Ride with confidence, knowing your hands are well-protected.
The Recoil gloves are an essential piece of gear for any V-twin rider. They are designed to provide both the tactile feel needed for precise control and the robust protection required for long rides. Always consult the Highway 21 sizing chart to confirm the perfect fit for your hands before making a purchase.
What size are these gloves?
This pair is a size Medium. We recommend checking the Highway 21 sizing chart to confirm your fit before ordering to ensure optimal comfort and performance.
Are these gloves waterproof?
Goat skin leather offers natural water resistance, but these gloves are not fully waterproof. For wet-weather riding, consider treating them with a quality leather conditioner to enhance their water repellency.
What is the YKK zipper for?
The YKK® cuff zipper allows you to cinch the glove snugly around your wrist. This helps to keep wind, road debris, and water out, ensuring a more comfortable and secure ride.

Great looking gloves a bit thin but good for the winter since they don't have any holes for airflow
For the price, the quality is there. I purchased a MED and it fits just right. They may need to brake in a little more. It's a great look and value.
I was looking for a simple, black leather glove without Velcro adjustment to go with my simple black leather jacket. The Recoil 21 is that glove, it is made of quality leather and without the Velcro found on most motorcycle gloves -- Velcro tends to shred the tricot and satin liners found inside the sleeves of most leather jackets. The glove is comfortable and true to size and it appears to be made of quality materials and construction. Fits under the tight sleeve of my leather jacket no problem. Couldn't be happier with these gloves, definitely recommend.
Just received a size medium pair. Disclaimer: I'm probably never going to ride in these, given the lack of impact protection. But I'll use them for driving and walking around in the winter.<br /><br />-My right hand measurements, from the base of the wrist to the tip of each finger, from pinky to thumb:<br />6 1/2", 7 3/4", 8", 7 3/4", 6"<br />-Palm width measuring across from the base of the pinky to base of the index finger: 3 1/2"<br />-Circumference of wrist: 7 1/4"<br /><br />The mediums fit absolutely perfectly. No extra length in any finger, and they snug up nicely when I make a fist. There's lot of room in the wrist with the zipper closed, and with just a little effort I can slide them off with the zipper still zipped. The inner liner feels good, no scratchiness even with a little dry hands. The only thing I'm not thrilled about are the subtle branding on the outside of the thumbs but it's in no way a deal breaker. Great simple pair of gloves.
Great gloves with one BIG flaw, the thumb is insanely long, it just makes no sense.. It's an additional knuckle long. I turned them inside out, sewed the end and trimmed the extra off, now they are my favorite gloves.. *wish it had touch screen.
