Joe Rocket Gloves

BRAND: Joe Rocket motorcycle apparel is designed for the high performance rider. Joe Rocket offers high durability with body armor and padding for track days or back road riding. Joe Rocket styling is American styling designed for SportBike riders. The products appeal to a broad range of riders by offering everything from Euro styling race suits and jackets to street style jackets and gloves. What is unique about Joe Rocket is that you can get the same Euro style as the more expensive European brands with sizing that is a looser fit than brands made for the European market. Joe Rocket is one of the widest used brands among velocity freaks whether it is Mat Mladin, Ben Spies, Jake Zemke and Miguel DuHamel tearing up the AMA SuperBike circuit or the occasional track day enthusiast out for some weekend fun. Joe Rocket has something to offer almost every rider with a wide selection of motorcycle apparel.

SELECTION: The strength of Joe Rocket is its broad selection. If you are looking for a top line race suit then check out the Speedmaster 1 piece leather suit. If you want a general track day or club racing suit then look at the GPX Type R 1 or 2 piece leather suit. The leather jackets range from the tapered, conservative Sonic 2.0 to the radical Rocket Nation or Suzuki Vertical. The textile jackets range from the conservative styled Meteor 5.0 to the radical Big Bang or Lucky jackets. The ladies have many choices that range from solid leather styling to wild leopard print. Joe Rocket boots have been redesigned for 2007 and now offer ultra-high performance Speedmaster 2.0 and Super Street models.

FIT: Joe Rocket fits very similar to Euro styled brands such as Alpinestars and AGV Sport but not quite as snug for a more relaxed and comfortable fit. The sizing is much more forgiving and you doesnt need to be a master athlete to fit into a Joe Rocket leather suit or jacket. Our recommendation is to purchase the size according to Joe Rocket sizing chart on our website. This usually works well but if you have questions, give us a call and one of our sizing specialists will assist you.

PERFORMANCE: Joe Rocket products perform very well almost all instances. The leather suits hold up to extreme abuse on the track and street while the jackets have been road tested by a few of our sales people and always maintain their safety during slides and impacts. One great feature about Joe Rocket jackets is the ventilation system available on most models. Large panels of the outer jacket shell can be zippered away to reveal ventilating mesh material. This is a great feature if you want to use the jacket for both winter and summer year long riding. The Joe Rocket boots are some of the best for the price and fit extremely well and true to size. The gloves hold up very well during slides and all have extra leather along the palms.

RETURN RATE: The return rate for Joe Rocket is low and almost every instance has been for sizing. We recommend consulting our Joe Rocket sizing chart before you buy. If you are fit into the big and tall category of rider, Joe Rocket does have some jackets in a Tall version and up to size 5XL.

OUR RECOMMENDATION: We recommend Joe Rocket for the SportBike rider that wants a go fast style without spending a lot of money for European manufactured apparel. Even the street style graphics on some Joe Rocket jackets will fit more snug than most so there is little material to catch the wind while you ride.
