Richa Arctic Winter Gloves: Choose Your Riding Version

The Richa Arctic range includes touring gloves with waterproof membranes and protective reinforcement. Start by matching the membrane and cuff to your route and jacket.

Richa Arctic winter gloves are touring motorcycle gloves for riders who need cold-weather coverage with road protection. The standard Richa Arctic uses a waterproof, breathable Hipora membrane; the Arctic Gore-Tex version uses a GORE-TEX membrane and a longer cuff. Choose the version that best matches expected rain and how your glove will overlap your jacket sleeve.

Common questions

Questions before you buy

Are Richa Arctic gloves waterproof?

Richa lists the standard Arctic with a waterproof and breathable Hipora membrane. The Arctic Gore-Tex version uses a GORE-TEX membrane; check the exact product page for the version and current specification.

What is the difference between Richa Arctic and Arctic Gore-Tex?

Richa describes both as winter motorcycle gloves. Its Arctic Gore-Tex listing specifies a GORE-TEX membrane and longer fit, while the standard Arctic listing names Hipora.

Do Richa Arctic gloves have motorcycle protection?

Richa lists CE-approved knuckle protection and reinforced palm and finger areas for the Arctic glove. Check the label and current product information for the exact version you are considering.

How should motorcycle winter gloves fit?

They should let you close your hand around the controls without pulling at the fingertips or bunching in the palm. Try them with your jacket cuff so the overlap stays secure and does not restrict movement.
