ILM Goatskin Motorcycle Gloves DN01 (XL, Black Perforated) — Hard-Shell Knuckle, Touchscreen-Ready

These ILM DN01 racing gloves combine supple goatskin with a reinforced PVC knuckle shell and breathable perforations to balance protection, comfort, and smartphone usability. Designed for road, track, and powersports riders, the pair is offered in a perforated black finish and includes features that adapt to motion and temperature—while running slightly small, so sizing up is recommended.

How do these gloves protect my hands during a fall or impact?

The DN01 uses a molded hard-shell PVC knuckle overlay covered in goatskin to shield the most vulnerable area of the hand while maintaining flexibility. Reinforced stitching and robust leather extend protection across the fingers and back of the hand without making the glove stiff.

• Hard-shell PVC knuckle for impact deflection
• High-grade goatskin covering for tear resistance
• Reinforced seams on high-wear zones

Will the gloves stay comfortable on long rides or in changing temperatures?

Perforations and stretch panels let the DN01 breathe and move with your hand, reducing heat buildup on warmer days while preserving tactile feel. Elastic at the wrist plus a Velcro strap locks the fit in place so the glove won’t slip during extended use.

• Perforated goatskin for airflow and reduced sweat
• Stretch lips at fingers and back of hand for mobility
• Elastic wrist and Velcro closure for secure, adjustable fit

Can I use my phone or GPS without removing these gloves?

The DN01 has conductive material on the thumb and forefinger so you can operate capacitive touchscreens while keeping gloves on. This makes it practical for navigation, music changes, or quick calls when stopped or riding with a compatible device.

• Touchscreen-capable thumb and index finger pads
• Works with most capacitive smartphones and GPS units
• Maintains grip and control while operating devices

How should I choose my size and care for these leather gloves?

The DN01 runs smaller than standard glove sizing, so ordering one size larger than your usual is advised to ensure comfort and proper fit over time. Clean gently with a damp cloth and use leather conditioner periodically to preserve suppleness and perforation function.

• Size advice: consider one size up from your typical glove size
• Spot clean with mild soap and dry away from direct heat
• Condition leather occasionally to prevent drying and cracking

Who is this for? The ILM DN01 is aimed at riders who want a balance of protective features and everyday practicality: commuters who need touchscreen use, sport riders wanting impact protection without bulk, and touring enthusiasts looking for breathable goatskin gloves. Its unisex design and adjustable wrist closure make it suitable for many hands, while the perforated black styling fits a broad range of motorcycle gear.
