Reise Nubra All Weather Riding Gloves

The Nubra is Reise's all-weather touring glove, and the specification is unusually serious for the money: SAS-TEC Level 2 knuckle armour, a SuperFabric armoured palm slider, and a moulded wiper blade on the left thumb for clearing your visor in the rain. That last detail tells you what this glove is for - long days, changing weather, and monsoon riding where you cannot keep stopping.

SAS-TEC is a German soft armour that stays pliable until it is hit, then stiffens to spread the impact. In a glove that matters more than in a jacket, because a rigid knuckle shell you can feel on every throttle input is a glove you stop wearing. SuperFabric on the palm is the other half: a grid of hard plates bonded to a flexible base, so the hand skates across tarmac instead of catching.

For hot-weather commuting the mesh Strada is the cooler choice. For dry-weather touring the leather Rhodes is the more traditional one.

FAQs

Q: Is the Nubra waterproof?
Reise describe it as all-weather rather than waterproof - built to keep performing wet, with a visor wiper for rain. Treat it as water-resistant, not a sealed membrane glove.

Q: What is SAS-TEC?
A German soft-armour material that stays flexible in use and stiffens on impact to spread the energy. Level 2 is the higher of the two CE impact grades.

Q: What is the thumb wiper for?
A moulded rubber blade on the left thumb for wiping rain off your visor mid-ride. Once you have used one in monsoon you will not go back.

Q: Will the armour get in the way?
No. Soft armour is the point - it moves with the hand rather than sitting as a rigid shell over the knuckles.

Q: How should it fit?
Snug with no loose material in the palm. Leather relaxes slightly; a glove loose from new will only get looser.

Local Buying Guide

If you ride through the monsoon rather than around it, an all-weather glove earns its place fast - a soaked mesh glove is cold and useless within minutes, and cold hands are a control problem, not a comfort one. Compare with the rest of the waterproof gloves or the full gauntlet range.
