More about this glove

The ILL DOZER is Legendary USA's most technically refined short wrist riding glove — two years in development, engineered to eliminate the most common source of long-ride hand fatigue: interior seam pressure. The outseam construction moves all stitching to the exterior, leaving the palm and finger interior completely smooth against the skin.

The leather is 100% American Whitetail deerskin — selected for a fiber structure that delivers tensile strength at roughly half the weight of cowhide or goatskin at equivalent thickness. Deerskin's natural thermal properties keep the hand comfortable across a wider temperature range than processed hides. Unlike cowhide, it stays pliable after repeated wet/dry cycles without conditioning — it softens with riding, not despite it.

Every seam is stitched with American & Efird (A&E) industrial-grade thread manufactured in the USA — the same thread specification used in military and defense gear. LeathSorb™ palm paneling — proprietary low-profile leather buffers at the thumb, index finger, and palm — absorbs road vibration and throttle friction at the contact points that matter most, without adding bulk around the controls. Perforated top panel for targeted airflow. Hand-cut and stitched in the USA. Featured in The Wall Street Journal Fashion Magazine.

Snug at the palm.

Amazing!!!

"Just picked up the Ill Dozers with the new Legendary cut and I’m honestly impressed. They feel comfortable right away and the leather doesn’t feel stiff at all."

Larry R. (5/5)

Hot ride, dry hands

"Wore these on a long hot ride and my hands never got sweaty. The outseam construction means nothing rubs the inside of the fingers, and the deerskin is soft right away. Fit was true to my normal size."

Vincent R. (5/5)

My 5th gloves from Legendary

"I am extremely pleased with the quality of these gloves. Perfect fit and high quality."

Daniel W. (5/5)

Outseam, no finger rub

"The outseam stitching keeps seams off my fingers and the perforation runs cool."

Christopher D. (5/5)

Looks sharp on the bike.

"Looks sharp on the bike. They felt broken in from the first ride."

Sean M. (5/5)

Stiff for a day

"Really like the look and the airflow. The leather was just a little stiff the first day."

Robert D. (4/5)

Tight over the knuckles

"Good venting but the fit was tight across the knuckles for my hand shape, so not ideal for me."

James O. (4/5)

Tight over the knuckles

"Good venting but the fit was tight across the knuckles for my hand shape, so not ideal for me."

James O. (4/5)

Put them on and immediately

"Put them on and immediately wanted to quit my job and ride into the sunset. They breathe well, feel premium, and somehow make every throttle twist feel like a slow-motion movie scene. Warning: may cause overconfidence at red lights."

Alfredo M. (5/5)

reviews don't lie

"I couldn’t be more impressed with my new Legendary Ill Dozers. The deerskin leather is incredibly soft, and the perforation makes a noticeable difference in airflow on hot days. There's like zero bulk, and the outseam stitching gives a smooth fit that doesn’t rub or irritate me. Legendary clearly put a lot of work into this design and it definitely checks all boxes for me."
