After putting countless miles on bikes of all shapes and sizes, as any seasoned rider knows, having quality protective gear is absolutely essential for comfort and safety. Gloves, in particular, take a beating, especially during colder riding seasons.

That’s why I was eager to test out the Joe Rocket Burner heated motorcycle gloves when they first hit the market a couple of years back. Initial impressions were fantastic, but how have they held up after extensive real-world use?

For riders seeking versatile cold-weather hand protection, I continue to fully recommend these Burner gloves from Joe Rocket. The quality is truly second to none.
