ALPINESTARS TECH-1 START V4 GLOVES SFI BLACK

Alpinestars Tech-1 Start V4 Gloves SFI Black give drivers an entry point into SFI-certified racing gear, built around a lighter, simplified glove design rather than a long list of add-ons.

The defining feature of this glove is its single upper panel construction, a design choice that cuts down on the number of seams running across the back of the hand. Combined with an innovative approach to the finger construction, it trims away excess material around the fingers specifically, which keeps the glove feeling slim and reduces overall weight compared to a bulkier, multi-panel design. That lighter build doesn’t come at the cost of certification: this glove carries SFI approval, meeting a recognized safety standard used across auto racing disciplines in North America. The all-black colorway keeps things simple and versatile, pairing easily with most suits and helmets without clashing. It’s a straightforward option for drivers who want certified gear without paying for features aimed at higher-level competition, whether that’s a first SFI-rated glove for club racing or a lightweight spare to keep in the bag. The construction philosophy here is less-is-more: fewer seams, less bulk, and a fit that stays out of the way once the driver’s hands are on the wheel, all while meeting the SFI Foundation‘s testing requirements.
