Evolution of the Handroid revolution

Revolutionary Knox Handroid gloves are being updated during 2012 as part of the British company's strategy of continuous development.

Some changes are subtle, such as modified fit and seam construction, while others are more conspicuous, like the introduction of Knox's patented Dual Compound Scaphoid Protection System (DC SPS). Constructed with a combination of LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene) and TPR (Thermo Plastic Rubber) it has increased sliding ability - LDPE has a self-lubricating property, helping to reduce friction - and a built-in cushioning effect for added comfort.

Introduced in 2009, the Knox Handroid brought new concepts in comfort, fit and protection to motorcycle gloves and this season's models have been chosen for use in the premier class of racing in MotoGP by James Ellison. Recent developments can be seen on his Handroids (pictured). James survived a 125 mph crash during practice for the Qatar MotoGP, putting the updated Handroids to the ultimate test.

Ellison said: “After my second crash this year on the Aprilia MotoGP machine I was once again pleasantly surprised at the lack of injury to myself, especially seeing as the bike damage came to around £20k (sorry guys). I was, of course, wearing my Knox Handroids and Knox chest/back protector, which between the two took most of the impact as I landed front first onto my hands and chest and slid for a good 150 yards on asphalt, before rolling in the gravel. Amazingly, the gloves were still very much intact and could quite easily be used again. The innovative scaphoid protector did its job perfectly and saved my hands from any damage.”

The 2012 Knox Handroid is available in black, white, red and blue; sizes XS-XXL; at an RRP of £159.99 (including VAT). For further information call 01900 825825 or visit www.knox-armour.co.uk/glove_range
