Kids' Motocross Gloves – Fox MX Gloves for Young Riders

This category brings together children's motocross gloves by Fox: lightweight, close-fitting MX gloves made for young riders on 50cc, 65cc and 85cc bikes, from the first laps on a balance bike to club racing. At Foxracing.si you will find youth and toddler sizes for motocross, enduro and off-road riding, and the same gloves work just as well for BMX and mountain biking.

What this category covers

Children's riding gloves look simple, but they do a lot of work: they keep small hands from blistering on the grips, add grip in the wet and protect the skin in a slide. In the kids' motocross gloves range you will typically find:

• Classic youth MX gloves – a thin, single-layer synthetic leather palm and a stretch mesh back for maximum feel on the bars and levers.
• Toddler and Pee Wee sizes – the smallest gloves for first bikes, balance bikes and pit use.
• Reinforced trail and off-road gloves – extra padding or a moulded knuckle guard for rocky terrain and roost.
• Cool-weather gloves – slightly thicker or brushed liners for early spring and late autumn riding.

How to choose gloves for a child

• Size first. Measure the width of the palm across the knuckles, without the thumb, and compare it with the size chart. Youth gloves run roughly from Pee Wee/YXS up to YL.
• Fit. The glove should be snug with no loose material in the palm – bunched fabric causes blisters. Fingertips should reach the end without pinching.
• Palm material. Thin synthetic leather (Clarino-type) gives the best lever feel and durability; silicone printing on the fingers adds grip on the clutch and brake.
• Protection level. Track and trail riders benefit from knuckle protection; younger beginners usually prefer the thinnest, most flexible glove they can feel the bars through.
• Closure. A hook-and-loop wrist strap lets you adjust the fit over a growing hand; slip-on cuffs are lighter and sit neatly under a jersey sleeve.
• Season. Vented mesh backs for summer, closed backs for cold mornings. Kids give up quickly when their hands are cold.

Brands

This category is dedicated to Fox, one of the best-known names in motocross apparel. Fox youth gloves use the same palm construction and graphics as the adult range, scaled down to children's hand shapes, so a young rider's kit can match the rest of the family's gear.

Frequently asked questions

What size motocross glove does my child need?

Measure the palm width across the knuckles and match it to the Fox size chart rather than guessing from age. If the measurement falls between two sizes, take the larger one – but only if the palm still sits flat with no folds.

Do children really need motocross gloves?

Yes. Gloves prevent blisters from vibration and grip pressure, improve control in wet or dusty conditions and protect the palms in a fall, which is the part of the body that hits the ground first.

Can kids' MX gloves be used for cycling?

They can. A thin MX glove is essentially a full-finger cycling glove, so the same pair works for BMX, pump track and mountain biking.

How do I wash motocross gloves?

Wash them gently by hand or on a cold cycle in a laundry bag with mild detergent, then air dry away from direct heat so the palm material stays soft.
