www.dennishernandez.com🧤 Riders instinctively put their hands out during a fall. That is why serious wrist and hand fractures are so common in ejection accidents. Quality motorcycle gloves with reinforced palms, wrist bracing, hard knuckle armor, and abrasion-resistant materials can reduce impact forces, protect soft tissue, and help prevent fractures and nerve damage. Look for CE-rated armor, double stitching, secure closures, and a snug fit that maintains dexterity. Practical tips. Pair gloves with a jacket that has wrist closures to keep sleeves in place. Replace gloves after a crash. Keep a second pair for rain or cold to maintain grip. Record the make and model of your safety gear if you ride frequently. If you are injured in a motorcycle crash, document your gear, photograph the scene and damage patterns, preserve helmet and glove evidence, get immediate medical care, and speak with a motorcycle accident attorney before giving statements to insurers.
