More about this glove

The Haymakers is Legendary USA’s most structurally differentiated riding glove — the Super Welted™ construction folds and double-stitches the palm seam flat rather than overlapping it. The result is a palm surface with no raised center seam ridge against the grip, eliminating the pressure point that accumulates on standard riding gloves over long throttle-heavy trips.

100% American Whitetail deerskin, selected for a fiber structure that delivers tensile strength at roughly half the weight of cowhide. The deerskin molds to your grip over the first few rides and stays supple in wet conditions without conditioning. Every seam stitched with ultra-strong waxed American & Efird (A&E) industrial-grade thread, finely braided and flattened — a construction detail visible at the palm edge and built for the stress points that matter on a real ride.

Touchscreen-capable thumb and index finger. Elasticized wrist. Hand-cut and stitched in the USA. Featured in The Wall Street Journal Fashion Magazine.

How do I measure my hand?

Tape around the widest part of your dominant hand — knuckles, no thumb. Between sizes? Size up. Exchanges are free.

What if they get soaked?

Ride on. Air-dry at room temperature — the leather dries soft, not stiff. Never machine-dry.

How long is the break-in?

Soft out of the box — within a week or two of riding the leather takes the shape of your grip.

Wrong size — how do exchanges work?

Easy exchanges and 30-day returns. No restocking fees.

The Glove

The only gear you feel
every second of the ride.

Throttle, clutch, brake — everything you do on a motorcycle, you do through your gloves. So we build them like it matters.

American leather — grain macro

The Material

Soft on day one.
Yours by week two.

American leather chosen for hand feel — it molds to your grip instead of fighting it, and keeps its shape wet or dry.

Day 1

Snug at the knuckles — that's correct. No pressure points.

Week 2

Molded to your hand. Grip memory sets in.

Year 1+

Yours. Condition every few months; air-dry if wet.

This is why you size snug — see the fit guide below.

Fit

Snug at the palm.
Nothing at the fingertip.

A riding glove should fit like a firm handshake: no slack in the palm — that is where blisters start — fingertips just touching the end, knuckles free to make a fist around a grip.

Between Sizes?

Deerskin stretches about a quarter size to your hand. Take the snugger size for bare-hand feel — the larger if you run liners in the cold. Exchanges are free either way.

Questions

Before you ride.

How do I measure my hand?

Tape around the widest part of your dominant hand — knuckles, no thumb. 8–9 inches is a Medium; 9–10 is a Large. Between sizes? Size up — the leather snugs in to fit.

What happens if they get soaked?

Ride on. Air-dry at room temperature — the leather dries soft, not stiff, and keeps its shape. Never machine-dry, never dry on a heater.

How long is the break-in?

Soft out of the box. Within a week or two of riding the leather takes the shape of your grip — which is why you size snug.

How do I care for them?

Wipe clean with a damp cloth, air-dry if wet, and condition lightly every few months.

Wrong size — how do exchanges work?

Easy exchanges and 30-day returns. No restocking fees.
