The Five TFX1 Airflow Short is a ventilated motorcycle glove built for trail and adventure riding in hot weather. Its upper combines nylon and 3D mesh with a perforated full-grain goat leather palm, while a breathable Coolmax lining and an Airgo Protech metacarpal shell with an air-intake cover keep air moving across the hand. Protection comes from a SuperFabric panel over the thenar and hypothenar eminences, 5 mm foam under the palm, 3 mm foam and TPU reinforcements with air vents on the index and middle fingers, and an anti-twist accordion link between the little and ring fingers.
VibraLess pads on the palm and thumb absorb handlebar vibration, external finger seams improve feel at the controls, and a double V-shaped elastic band with a Velcro strap secures the wrist. The index finger and thumb carry the Touch Screen system, the left hand has a Clear Vision Pad for wiping a visor, and reflective logos add visibility. The glove is CE KP1 certified and weighs 300 g.
