Thanks for the recs, I’ll check on the cups if I ever need this kind of PPE. Those riding gloves are serious business, those would work for sure! The only issue I see there is affordability e.g. could a group buy a bunch of pairs to hand out to people and also conspicuousness. But I am thinking the Mechanix gloves I was thinking of would not do the trick.
There’s a lot to be said for something made to keep your hand together in a motorcycle crash. I have not been failed by riding gear. Many of the jackets have armor built into them as well. I’m fond of Icon gear.
