SAS Tec CE Level 2 rated Knuckle protection
The SAS Tec CE Level 2 rated Viscoelastic knuckle armor offers best-in-class impact protection for the Roost gloves, while maintaining a high level of comfort.
Optimum Comfort & fit for off-roading
The pre-curved fingers of the Roost gloves ensure a comfortable and secure fit during rides. Enhanced by special stretch textile fabric, these gloves provide added comfort during rigorous enduro rides.
Superior Grip and tactile feedback
Silicone accents strategically placed on the upper palm and the fingers on both the index and middle fingers significantly enhance grip and feedback from the levers and throttle, crucial for off-road and enduro riding.
Excellent Ventilation & Breathability
The Roost gloves feature a specially designed micro-perforated textile material on the back of the hand and finger fourchettes, enhancing airflow and sweat-wicking for maximum breathability during off-road rides. Additionally, the Kaitai micro-fiber material on the palm side includes perforations, further increasing the gloves' breathability in hot and humid conditions.
"Best in class SuperFabric abrasion protection
As the palms are the first point of contact with the ground during a fall, the scaphoid area is reinforced with double-stitched SuperFabric inserts for superior abrasion resistance and EVA padding for impact absorption. SuperFabric is globally recognized for its exceptional resistance to abrasion and punctures. We opted for SuperFabric over harder palm sliders to minimize bulk on the palm and maintain feedback from the handlebars. Additionally, EVA padding incorporated with a second micro-fiber layer on the ulnar side of the hand along the pinky finger provides added protection.
Enhanced comfort with finger tip overlays
The fingertip overlays in the Roost v2 eliminate seam interference at the tips, significantly enhancing comfort compared to the previous model.
Touch screen friendly
Special conductive leather panels on the index finger enable the use of mobile devices, making it easy to navigate trails, capture special moments, or make emergency calls without removing your gloves.
Cuff pull tab
An integrated pull tab provides a leverage point for easily putting on the gloves.
PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
The gloves are constructed with breathable 4-way stretch textile material on the back of the hand and perforated Kaitai microfiber suede on the palm side, enhancing dexterity and comfort. Sas-Tec™ CE Level 2 rated Viscoelastic armor protects the knuckles, while the palms feature SuperFabric™ EVA reinforced panels. Silicone accents on the index and middle fingers, as well as the palm, improve grip. Additionally, the index fingertips on both hands are touch screen sensitive.
STEP 1 - Measure your hand using a tailor's tape measure
There are two key measurements that you need to take into consideration for figuring out your glove size.
A) Circumference - Wrap the tape measure around your palm at its widest point and lightly close your hand before taking the measurement.
B) Length - Measure from the tip of the middle finger to the base of your palm at your wrist.
STEP 2 - Find your glove size by checking hand measurements against the chart provided
- If both the measurements do not fall in one particular size - use the larger of the two measures to choose the glove size.
- If the two measurements are on the border line between two sizes, try both the sizes and choose the one that offers a better fit.
STEP 1 - Confirm that the gloves are a comfortable fit.
They should not be excessively tight on all fingers (including the thumb) & knuckles.
To check this, try the gloves on and form a fist several times and verify if:
1. Adequate room for all fingers (specially thumb) to move and operate controls comfortably.
2. Check the fitment on both hands since your left and right hand sizes do vary.
Ensure that the fit on first try is not so tight as to cause discomfort and/or restrict movement
STEP 2 - Ensure the knuckle protectors are properly positioned.
The way to check this is:
1. Roll your hand into a tight fist and hold the position for 5-10 minutes. This position should be easy to hold without causing any discomfort or causing any stress points.
2. Ensure that the edge of the knuckle protector is not over the knuckle when the fist is formed.
The Roost v2 gloves are specifically designed for off-road use and will not provide the same level of protection as our street gloves. Off-road riding demands more from gloves due to constant control modulation. While we have enhanced durability, these gloves may wear out faster than traditional leather gloves, depending on use. Made from textile material and Kaitai microfiber, they offer superior grip, feedback, and comfort but are more susceptible to wear and tear. This wear is dependent on individual use and is not covered under the warranty policy.
Off-road usage can make the gloves dirty, so we recommend cleaning them after each session if cleanliness is a concern. Fit and comfort are subjective and vary from person to person, so we suggest trying the gloves before purchasing. Additionally, avoid contact between the hard Velcro and the glove fabric which can cause fraying - this does not affect the performance.

How to clean & dry gloves?
1. Clean the gloves as soon as you are able to, after your off-road session. This will make removing any stains easier. Leaving the gloves un-clean will make removing any stains tougher.
2. In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix a portion of diluted cleaning solution in lukewarm water.
3. Dampen a microfiber cloth with the mixture and gently wipe the stained areas. If there are stains which you are unable to remove using a damp cloth, use a soft bristled brush soaked in a mild pH neutral soap and rinse off using cold water. Please note that using a stiffer brush could lead to piling which will not be covered under warranty.
4. Clean the gloves starting at the wrist and working toward each fingertip. Be sure to clean well between each finger. Keep moving to a clean area of the cloth as the dirt is transferred.
5. Rinse the cloth often as the dirt is transferred. Turn the gloves over and repeat on the other side.
6. DO NOT USE HOT WATER
7. Do not use detergents, fabric stain removers, bleach or any chemicals for cleaning.
8. Do not wash the gloves in a washing machine.
9. Dip dry the gloves after cleaning in a ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
10. Do not wring the gloves.
How to store?
When gloves are stored wet or in a non-ventilated area, this may cause deformations and ruin your gloves, not to mention this allows mildew to grow on the leather causing discoloration and damage.
1. Make sure that your gloves are completely dry before you store them.
2. Place them in a breathable cotton bag to protect them from dust but with enough air circulation to prevent mildew from forming.
3. Store them in a cool, dry, well ventilated area

At ViaTerra, we recognize that accidents can happen on the road, leading to the loss or damage of a single glove. For selected gloves, we are offering an Individual Glove Replacement Service (paid) to assist riders in such situations.
How It Works: If you've lost or damaged one glove and would rather not purchase a new pair, contact our customer service team. While availability cannot be guaranteed, we endeavor to help riders find a matching glove. Occasionally, we have single gloves in a pair that don't meet our QC requirements. We figured that this would be cost effective to our existing customers, by replacing only what you need, rather than buying a complete new pair. We're happy to reunite mismatched gloves instead of discarding pairs with a single damaged glove. Contact us to ensure you're fully equipped for your journeys!
