About Us
From a Bedroom in Tasmania to Tracks Worldwide
FIST Handwear didn't start in a factory or a boardroom. It started in a bedroom in Tasmania, Australia, with one guy, a big idea, and an even bigger passion for riding. A years ago, Sam Moore looked at the glove market and thought: why does everything look the same? Why wouldn't you put hula girls and flowers on a glove? Why wouldn't you make something that actually makes you smile every time you pull it on?
That question became a brand. That brand became a movement. And that movement became the #FISTARMY.
Why We Make Gloves Differently
At FIST, we believe less is more. A glove should feel like a second skin — fitted, responsive, and out of the way so you can focus on the ride. That's why every pair is built around a philosophy of maximum feel and minimum bulk.
We use Japanese Clarino synthetic leather palms — one of the finest materials available — because your hands deserve the best grip and durability on the market. From the stitching to the fit, every detail is deliberate.
And the designs? Bold, unapologetic, and always a little unexpected. We release our gloves in Chapters — curated collections that drop like limited editions, each one telling its own visual story. Every release is something we're genuinely proud of.
Built for Riders, by Riders
FIST gloves are made for the people who live for two wheels — whether that's Motocross, BMX, or Mountain Biking. Our range covers every condition and every rider:
- Standard Gloves — The classic FIST fit. Bold designs, Clarino palms, built to perform.
- Breezer Gloves — Maximum airflow for hot days and hard sessions.
- Frosty Fingers — Full-finger warmth for cold weather riding.
Whatever the terrain, whatever the weather, we've got your hands covered.
Athlete Partnerships
FIST has always been about the people who ride. We work with some of the most exciting athletes in the world — riders who share our love of pushing limits and having fun doing it. Our athlete collaborations aren't just sponsorships; they're partnerships built on shared values, genuine passion, and a whole lot of good times on two wheels.
These riders don't just wear FIST — they help shape it.
The #FISTARMY
The #FISTARMY isn't a marketing campaign. It's a community of riders from every corner of the world who found each other through a shared love of riding and a shared love of standing out. From Tasmania to Europe, from local tracks to international competitions, the #FISTARMY is everywhere.
When you pull on a pair of FIST gloves, you're not just buying a product — you're joining something bigger. A crew of people who ride hard, live boldly, and spread joy and good times on two wheels.
Our Commitment to Quality
Eleven years in, and we haven't cut corners once. Every pair of FIST gloves goes through the same rigorous standards that Sam set from day one. We source the best materials, we obsess over the fit, and we never release a design we're not proud of.
That's the FIST promise: gloves that perform as good as they look, built to last as long as your passion for riding.
