Dainese Tempest 2 D-Dry

Dainese Tempest 2 D-Dry — Italian Waterproofing, No Animal Products

Dainese builds many of their gloves with leather palms — the Tempest 2 D-Dry is one of the exceptions. The 600D polyester outer combined with D-Dry membrane gives it an all-synthetic construction verified for this catalog. Selected because it brings Dainese build quality to the vegan glove category at a practical price.
