Alpinestars Tech-1 KX v3 Karting Gloves | CIK-FIA Level 2

The Alpinestars Tech-1 KX v3 is a premium karting glove for racers who want CIK kart gloves for LO206 and 4-cycle competition with real steering feel. Its dual-layer stretch nylon-cotton build minimizes bulk between hand and wheel, and external seams keep long kart races comfortable. Available from Swift Karting.

Key Features:

• Dual-layer stretch nylon-cotton main construction conforms closely to the hand.
• Synthetic suede palm with camo-style treatment balances abrasion resistance and sensitivity to front-tire grip and chassis response.
• Strategically positioned silicone grip printing across palm and fingers.
• External finger seams move stitching away from the fingers, reducing pressure points in long kart races.
• Pre-curved fingers shaped around a kart steering wheel reduce fatigue in endurance races and repeated heats.
• Breathable mesh finger sidewalls vent heat during warm-weather competition.
• Touchscreen-compatible thumb and index finger.
• 180-degree elasticated wrist for easy entry and secure retention.

Homologation note: this is an earlier-generation model sold as CIK-FIA Level 2 and succeeded by the Tech-1 KX v4. Racers competing under mandatory equipment rules should inspect the homologation label sewn into the glove and confirm what their series accepts before regulated competition.

Karting uses: experienced club and national 4-cycle racers, endurance karting, and any LO206 driver who finds internal finger seams uncomfortable. Swift Karting recommends it for drivers who want direct steering feedback over thick padding.

The Alpinestars Tech-1 K Race v2 Advance Karting Gloves, the Alpinestars Tech-1 K Race v2 Corporate Karting Gloves, and the Alpinestars Tech-1 K Race v2 Future Karting Gloves are the other kart gloves from this brand.
