REV’IT! Dune Gloves Review
Our Verdict on the REV’IT! Dune Gloves
For ADV and dirt enthusiasts wanting a durable and safe glove that still provides excellent dexterity and grip, the Revit Dunes checks all the boxes.
They strike a fantastic balance between protection and comfort, which is critical for off-road riding. And they work just as well for casual street use too, thanks to the flexible armor and ventilation.
So, if you loved Revit’s previous Sand 3 gloves, the upgraded Dune model makes an excellent successor for tackling a variety of environments. I highly recommend trying them out to experience the fit and quality firsthand.

How is the Sizing and Fit?
I typically wear a size large glove or size 9, which equates to around 8.75 inches in circumference. The Revit Dunes in a size large fit me perfectly without any tightness or restriction while still enabling an excellent feel of the bike’s controls.
According to Revit’s sizing chart, these gloves seem to run true, so I recommend properly measuring your hand and cross-referencing the chart to choose your ideal size. Keep in mind Revit offers free shipping and returns, just in case.
Overall, the lightweight feel makes the Dunes easy to take on and off repeatedly, even when wearing them for longer rides. I love the large pull tab on the wrist cuff, which helps get them on quickly when pulling over on the trail.
What Materials Provide Protection and Comfort?
The Revit Dunes incorporate a strategic mix of *leather, abrasion-resistant textiles, and impact foam, providing an impressive balance of safety and comfort features:
- Goat leather lines the inside of the palm for good grip and heat resistance
- Durable PWR shell fabric panels add abrasion protection
- 3D air mesh panels enhance airflow to the hands
- Finger joints feature stretch Spandex for flexibility
- TPU armor over the knuckles distributes impact
- TPR armor protects the outer hand edge
- Perforations aid ventilation across finger joints
- The touchscreen thumb and index fingertips allow device use without removing the
