If you like to hit the road on two wheels and do so in style, you need to think about your motorcycling accessories and, quite frankly, we think it unlikely you’ll find anything cooler than these awesome-looking Buffalo Leather Skeleton Motorcycle Gloves from the guys at Maroon Bell Outdoors.
Maroon Bell launched back in 2016 and the brand’s founder, a fourth-generation Coloradan, hails from the outskirts of Denver. Maroon Bell Outdoor embodies a vision to establish a unique identity in adventure apparel—suitable for urban settings yet resilient for outdoor pursuits. Few of their products typify this ethos better than their Buffalo Leather Skeleton Gloves which are available in an array of colours and retail for $99-$109.
Founded by Jeremy Dougherty who is a 4th generation Coloradan and started this company at a classically grass roots level. Popping up at summer festivals and holiday bazars. Without the help of investors, Jeremy vertically integrated the organization and has spent the better part of a decade painstakingly refining the Maroon Bell glove line. Jeremy thinks outside of the box, thrives in saturated sectors and I would characterize him as, a go fast and break things optimist . With his ears pinned back, the rabbit he is chasing is simple: bring regard back to consumers through offering the best gloves in the world then backing them up with next level service. He believes well made products can become characters in the story of our lives, which, of course is the Maroon Bell slogan. “We make products to become a character in the story of your life.”
You can pick from two styles when it comes to the Maroon Bell Skeleton Gloves – namely, their Astrapi (which is Greek for lightning) version for $109 (our favourite here at Coolector HQ) and their flagship Skeleton Gloves ($99). These gloves transcend mere handwear; they epitomize style, resilience, and innovation. Constructed from full-grain Water Buffalo hide, they showcase sheer robustness, boasting a natural fiber composition that guarantees performance and ongoing durability.
Each pair is purpose-built to mould to your hand, they guarantee unparalleled comfort and agility and it’s not hard to see why these epic gloves are one of Maroon Bell’s most popular products to date. The Astrapi iteration showcases a gold lightning bolt motif, meticulously hand-stitched using 40 segments of buffalo leather, symbolizing the potent astrapi (lightning in Greek).
Incorporated tech fabric on the index finger ensures effortless access to your smartphone. With exceptional water resistance and unmatched resilience against tears, punctures, and abrasions, these gloves offer unparalleled hand protection. Crafted from full-grain Water Buffalo leather, Maroon Bell refrain from stretching the hides or removing impurities through sanding. This preservation method retains the naturally woven fiber structure of the leather, ensuring its exceptional strength remains intact.
The densely interwoven fiber structure inherent in Water Buffalo Hide, coupled with the natural oils functioning as an adhesive, forms an unparalleled barrier for these Skeleton Gloves from Maroon Bell. This barrier shields your hands from a plethora of hazards including asphalt, rocks, sticks, nails, glass, hail, rain, snow, bugs, cement, or any other potential projectiles, safeguarding one of your most vital assets – your hands. Hitting the road in search of adventure this summer? Make sure you’ve got these ace gloves from Maroon Bell in tow.
