REINFORCEMENTS & PROTECTION
PATCH PALM
Patch palm involves adding a separate piece of material, typically leather or a synthetic reinforcement, onto the palm area of a glove. The patch is strategically placed to reinforce high-wear zones, such as the base of the fingers, thumb crotch, or entire palm surface.
INDEX / THUMB OVERLAY
The thumb – index joint is one of the most used and flexed areas of the glove— whether you’ re gripping poles, tools, handlebars, or adjusting zippers. A patch overlay protects against premature wear and tearing
FOAM PADDING
Foam padding is integrated into the back of the hand to provide impact protection, thermal insulation, and structural support. It is typically made from EVA, PU, or other performance foams, and varies in thickness and density depending on the glove’ s intended use.
INJECTION PLATES
Injection-molded plates are rigid or semi-rigid protective elements placed over the knuckle area of the glove. Made from durable materials like TPU( thermoplastic polyurethane) or carbon composite, these plates are designed to absorb and deflect impact during high-speed or high-risk activities
