First MFG Co. started in 1987with a suitcase full of leather, recognizing the demand in the leather jacket market and setting out to provide the motorcycle world with a top-quality product at an honest price. Over the last 30+ years, the company has dedicated its time and effort into creating a product that is built to last. Starting out in small shops in NYC, First MFG Co. quickly became one of the largest wholesale leather brands in the country.
The Axis is the brand's lightweight leather glove designed for comfort during extended wear. Mesh panels have been incorporated to enhance airflow and ventilation, allowing air to circulate freely and keeping the hands cool while reducing sweat buildup. These gloves are a perfect companion for riders seeking a combination of lightweight performance and enhanced safety.
Crafted from premium quality leather, the Axis gloves are durable, enhance grip, and are resistant to wear and tear. The safety cuff provides protection, improving overall safety. The hard knuckles add an extra layer of defense to the back of the hand, reducing the risk of injury in case of impacts or blows.
The supple leather offers a comfortable, snug fit that feels almost custom-made for the user's hands. The hook-and-loop closure ensures a secure and adjustable fit, reducing the risk of the glove slipping off during use.
When it comes to leather quality, there is a difference between full-grain and top-grain leather. Full-grain leather is high-quality, durable, and resistant to wear and tear, often with natural imperfections, while top-grain leather has a cleaner and more consistent appearance with slightly processed imperfections.
Genuine leather is generally not inherently resistant to water, so these gloves are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. However, they do provide knuckle protection, minimizing the risk of injury in case of unexpected impacts or accidents.
When selecting a good pair of leather gloves, it's important to consider the quality of the leather, the fit, the presence of padding or reinforcement in critical areas, and the type of ventilation. Proper care and maintenance, such as using a soft, damp cloth to wipe off dirt and dust and storing them in a cool, dry place, will help preserve the gloves' condition and longevity.
