Covert Gloves MK3
£129.99
Size GuideThe Knox Covert Mk3 is a 100% Waterproof Motorcycle glove. This is, however, made without any bulky insulation, making them the perfect three season glove, working in spring, summer, and autumn. This in turn offers increased dexterity and feel. Waterproofing is assured by Knox Seal, a highly breathable, laminated, waterproof membrane. The flexible Knox seal membrane is directly laminated to the back of the leather, keeping water out and the rider drier and therefore more comfortable. Because it is bonded to the shell, it makes the glove thinner, giving greater feel, dexterity and sensitivity.

Made from premium soft Aniline cow hide with a tough goat skin palm. The Covert Mk3 glove also utilises the patented low profile Knox Scaphoid Protection System (SPS) on the palm. This eliminates the grab effect that occurs when a leather palm makes contact with the road, and in turn reduces the risk of hyper extension which can be the cause of a broken scaphoid. Additional cow hide overlay leather at the base of the hand frames the SPS to give extra strength and durability, while the knuckles feature soft Micro-Lock armour. Strategically placed 4mm Micro-Lock panels placed on thumb, top of hand and outer wrist add to the gloves impact resistance. Combined these give the glove a CE approval to EN13594.
Comfort and usability come from features such as the Amara Silicone grip pad on the palm. The same material is used in the index fingers and thumbs to enable the wearer to use a touch screen. A Velcro wrist closure strap sits on the top of the glove and makes for an easier and more secure, comfortable fit and a tightening system reduces the cuff when it’s used under a jacket sleeve. Accordion stretch panels on the fingers, the thumb and the top of the hand increase flexibility while box construction in the fingers increases dexterity.
The Covert Mk 3 is available in black and in sizes from S – 2XL.

Palm Circumference (A): Palm circumference is the total measurement around the widest part of the palm and over the knuckles. Put the tape around your palm and make a fist, then note the measurement.
Hand Length (B): Measure from your wrist crease to the end of your middle finger.
Measure your hand length and width and choose size the closest to your measurements. This should fit your hand correctly. If your hand fits one measure but not the 2nd, or if you prefer a looser fit, we would advise choosing the next size up.

So far, I’ve only worn the gloves twice in light rain for about half an hour. Therefore, I can’t comment on their waterproofness. However, the glove’s construction looks reassuringly robust being made entirely of leather. My last pair of gloves were part textile and part leather. The leather on the fingertips was wafer-thin and wore through, and the thicker leather tore on the gauntlet where the wrist strap attached to the glove. Hence needing new gloves.
The gloves already start to feel comfortable, unlike my new Handroid gloves, which are taking longer to break in.
The combined layers of the gloves are quite thick, so they will also be great in the Spring & Autumn, even when it’s not raining and when it’s too warm for Winter gloves and too cold for Summer gloves.

Purchased size M and fit was as perfect. Glove construction quality is superb. The flex zones for your knuckles and thumb is excellent. Feel absolutely no chill or wind on my hands and lining properly moves moisture away from your skn.

AS a Blood Bike rider I want waterproof gloves that can tolerate being taken off and put on again several times in wet conditions without everting. These Knox gloves are great quality, have proven to be waterproof and have good feel. The work well in the wet although the lining still pulls away a little. They are the best I have found so far and I recommend them as a very good glove.

I wanted a glove that wold keep me dry and warm when the the weather is more unpredictable, but I didn’t want a pure winter glove. Both because I didn’t want to sacrifice feel, and I won’t be riding in subzero (C) temperatures anyway. This seemed to be a good fit, and it was. After allowing some weeks to break in, it starting to become nice and supple. Just what I needed!

I wanted to wait a while to let them break in, but now as I have put my bike into hibernation I suppose it is time to write something up. They were a bit stiff in the beginning, but have indeed softened up nicely after a couple of weeks of use. I haven’t seen any heavy rain yet, but they protect well against wind and the occasional drizzle I have seen. No insulation, but to me this is a good thing. The feel and control is great, and I don’t ride in subzero (centigrade) conditions anyway. Above freezing temperatures they hold up well!
