Primaloft® insulation
PrimaLoft®, the best thermal insulation integrated into FIVE gloves
When it comes to protecting yourself from the cold, which is even more intense when riding motorcycle bike is amplified by speed, equipping our FIVE gloves with high-performance thermal insulation is essential.
And if there is one globally recognized specialist in high-performance thermal insulation, it is PrimaLoft®.
PrimaLoft® has built a leading international reputation by offering ultra-lightweight hydrophobic insulation solutions that are found in most cold-weather sports equipment (skiing, mountaineering, etc.) offered by major brands and used in jackets, pants, shoes, gloves, and even sleeping bags.
The principle is quite simple: since air is the best thermal insulator, all you need to do is trap it to retain the natural heat emitted by the body, creating a thermal barrier against the cold.
This is exactly what PrimaLoft® fibers do. They come in the form of a wadding, similar to artificial "down." But unlike natural down, PrimaLoft® fibers are hydrophobic and therefore act as a barrier against moisture. This greatly helps to preserve heat around the body and, in the case of our gloves, around the hands.
PrimaLoft® is also committed to environmental responsibility, offering fibers that are designed to perform well while reducing their impact on the planet by being easily recyclable.
There are several types of PrimaLoft® thermal insulation, and we incorporate the most suitable solution (PrimaLoft® Gold or Silver, PrimaLoft® Aerogel, in different weights: 80g, 170g, 200g, etc.) into our motorcycle gloves and bike gloves, depending on whether it is placed in the palm or on the back of the hand.
One thing is certain: PrimaLoft® insulation in a FIVE glove guarantees the highest level of thermal insulation and heat retention.
That's why we reserve PrimaLoft® fibers for our highest-end motorcycle gloves and bike gloves, which offer the best protection against the cold.
