Alright! Some of you in warmer weather than Melbourne have been asking for these for some time! Now it's warmed up in Melbourne I reckon you had the right idea.
I've taken the Originals Brown Distressed Leather Gloves and made them into summer motorbike gloves.
These bad boys feature no cuff and perforated leather all around for maximum ventilation in the heat. Perfect for summer!
Designed to suit classic, cafe racer or whatever you wish! Well suited to Triumph, Royal Enfield, Harley Davidson etc.

- Now you can choose to have it in a regular fit or a shorter fit!
- Perforated Top Grain Cowhide keeps your hands cooler in summer
- No cuff/gauntlet version of the Originals
- Hard Knuckle protection
- Velcro Strap to keep them securely on your hands
- Reinforced on higher impact areas
- Distressed brown leather for a unique look that fits classic and modern bikes well
- Flexible supple material for ease of controls.
- Touchscreen capable fingertips. Still use your phone and GPS without taking off your gloves
As this product is actual leather it will wear over time and change appearance. It will also mould to your hand with use, becoming your own!
I totally get buying a jacket or glove online can involve a bit of risk when it comes to sizing etc so I am more than happy to do a size swap or return if you want (provided its still in the same condition it got sent to you in).




*Please note due to natural fluctuations in leather the look of the leather may be slightly different to what is shown in the photos.
Black Pup Moto was born because I could never find quite what I wanted. I wanted gear that matched the more classic/cafe racer style of bikes I liked.
I wanted Real high-grade leather without too much branding on the outside and without plastic-y add ons.
I originally started with the Original glove (where the name came from and also a nod to how gear used to be made) as I simply couldn't find a brown leather classic-styled motorbike glove but with no over the top branding. Just a simple well-made glove!
Designed in Melbourne Australia.

Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 73 reviews.

Probably not what they're intended for but got them for trail riding and light singles because sick of the garbage cheapos falling apart after a few rides. First usage was a day of single track so wet and muddy so few drops but they were fine! 25 degrees day in Vic and they were awesome was concerned that they'd be a sweat box but we're great. Looking forward to how long they last

Feels very high quality. I’d ordered the regular fit but soon realised my fingers are indeed quite short. Richard facilitated a quick exchange and shorter fit gloves fit perfectly for me. Leather has a good texture. Will need some time to wear them in but out of the box they are already the comfiest gloves I’ve tried on. Great product!

These gloves are that good I ended up buying a second pair in a different colour! They have been so great in the winter! Barely feel the cold. Couldn’t recommend a better pair. I also got the ol bobber jacket in distressed brown which has been the most comfortable and durable jacket I own

Good quality product, a bit stiff at first but wearing in nicely. Thumb is a bit long for me which makes me lose some dexterity. Gloves are phone compatible (you can play with your phone without taking them off).
