The Evolution of Komodo Gear Racing Gloves

Komodo Gear has been producing motorcycle racing gloves for the public since 2005.

Later that same year, we introduced the Meso racing glove. (I’m going to spend a bit of time on the Meso race glove, because it was our very own design and was a labor of love)

It took a while to actually bring the Meso glove to life as we were working with several different people (racers, designers and our factory) on the specs.
We made several different prototypes as there were a lot of “hands” on -board in this glove design. Intellectually, the design of the Meso glove was truly our own. When looking back at it, the Meso glove actually proved to be very effective in testing and was adopted by many professional racers starting in the beginning of 2006.

This also means the glove was being harshly tested (crashed) heavily. The fact that the racers didn’t return them and used them for the full racing season said a lot about the quality and overall design of the glove. Komodo took a big risk with the Meso, it really was a new idea (a clean canvas design) including the fit and different use of materials. Like a lot of creative ideas, they either go big or go bust; thankfully, the Meso was a huge hit! » Read more..
