Rogue — Mid-sized versatility
The Rogue™ model is our most versatile, mid-sized hand cover— It fits a myriad of adventure and sport touring bikes, as well as some scooters, and other bikes. It is our commuter rider's model of choice. It offers a large hand opening that stays open at high speeds and they are designed to be fitted over brush/hand guards.
Backcountry — Designed for Enduro and dirt bikes, they are also a great option for Harleys/cruisers that have swept back bars. email us with your model if you are unsure. Harleys require hand guards installed to properly support Hippo Hands or any hand covers (We recommend Memphis Shades).
Riders who want a smaller hand cover that still offers very good protection but is better suited for standing while riding choose the Backcountry model. We have many customers who love them for cool, wet single-track excursions. These are built to last!
