About the original
Spidi Sport was founded in 1977 in Sarcedo, Italy and has produced protective gear for factory Ducati MotoGP riders since the 1980s. The C1 is a gauntlet-style leather motorcycle glove with carbon-fiber knuckle protectors, EVA padding at the thumb, a touchscreen-compatible index fingertip, perforated panels at the palm for ventilation, and a leather wrist strap with hook-and-loop closure. The glove is CE-certified to EN 13594:2015 standards and was designed by Drudi Performance, Ducati's longtime livery designer. The SS2024 three-way Supreme collab uses the standard C1 in red Ducati livery with Supreme and Ducati logos on the cuff; released May 30, 2024 at $128.
About Spidi
Spidi is an Italian motorcycle apparel manufacturer founded in 1977 by Renato Dalla Grana in Sarego, Vicenza. The company began with racing gloves and incorporated in 1985, expanding into full motorcycle clothing in 1989. Kenny Roberts wore Spidi gloves when he won the 500cc world championship in 1978. In 1990, Spidi launched the Paddock, the first motorcycle jacket built with the H2Out waterproof membrane developed in partnership with Toray; the 3-in-1 jacket construction followed in 1994. The line covers leather and textile suits, gloves, boots, and CE-certified armor used across MotoGP and World Superbike paddocks. The Dalla Grana family still owns the company. Supreme has collaborated with Spidi on co-branded racing leathers.
