The Evolution of the Minworth Heated Glove: As we gear up for the launch of our second-generation Minworth heated glove, we wanted to take a moment to share the journey behind the product. Creating something that feels both timeless and innovative is no easy task, but it’s the standard we set for ourselves when developing our Heritage Collection. We’ve always believed in listening to the riders who use our products day in and day out. Over the years, we’ve taken in invaluable feedback from riders who appreciate the premium style of the Minworth and want their gear to complement their lifestyle—without sacrificing function. This latest version reflects just that. From a reimagined flexi fit knuckle to new components and technology, every detail is thoughtfully updated. We've introduced a discreet waterproof zipped cuff pocket for easier battery access and secure storage, a back-of-hand controller with three customizable heat settings, and a battery capacity indicator. The Thinsulate has also been updated with a lighter palm weight when compared to the back of the hand to ensure a great grip feel.

Creating market-leading protective motorcycle clothing built on innovation, character and passion for riding.
About us
Merlin was formed in 2011 by five passionate and experienced motorcycle riders. From a small barn conversion in the hear of Birmingham, UK, Merlin launched its first collection a year later. From this small collection, Merlin is now one of the fastest growing motorcycle brands. recognised for style, technical innovation and quality. Merlin has gone from barn conversion to global brand in less than 10 years, with products now available in over 20 markets. We're proud to work with some of the world's leading material, armour and component providers to meet the high-quality our customers have come to expect. Such materials include: Halley Stevensons® waxed cotton, Cordura®, Outlast®, D3O® armour, Marton Mills® tartan, DuPont™ Kevlar®, YKK® zips, Sympatex® membranes, SuperFabric®, Hipora® and Reissa® waterproofing. Merlin products were first built on what the founders knew riders wanted but could not find; motorcycle clothing that redefined expectation, showcased personality and complement the bike without compromising on safety or performance. Our Explorer category focuses on versatility, function and performance that can tackle both on and off-road scenarios. This collection also sees the introduction of sustainable fabrics, using Halley Stevensons® 100% organic ripstop cotton in a selection of the range. Born from a celebration of the cafe culture, the Heritage collection combines timeless styling with thoroughly modern protection, using classic soft leathers and waxed cottons. At Merlin, we believe every rider should have access to protective clothing that performs as well as it looks. The desire for protective apparel which easily transitions between on and off bike is growing, which is where our Leisure Moto collection steps in. By taking high-street styling and adding in motorcycle-based protection, we were able to craft a complete collection to help riders stand out from the crowd.

🏆 Exciting News! Our Alton II jacket just earned the coveted Ride Recommended award! Tested in the Smart-Buy Naked Jacket category, it scored top highly for comfort, ventilation, ease of use, and a spot-on fit. Building on the success of v1, our team has worked hard to bring key improvements to v2 that make it even better. Our main focus? Enhancing breathability, refining the fit, and upgrading the protection with D3O armour. We also made the liner softer and more comfortable with a premium mesh and improved all of the trims, such as the new durable branded snaps. It’s been a journey of listening, learning, and refining, and we’re proud of the results. Every detail reflects our commitment to delivering the best to our community.

In this SS24 season, we proudly introduce 20 new products across our three rider-focused collections: Heritage, Explorer, and LeisureMoto. The goal was to maintain our very competitive pricing while delivering products that combine aspirational styling with an even greater mix of technical. This year sees more products at CE Level AAA and Level 2 in boots, without losing comfort or adding weight. We continue to use more organic and recycled fabrics whilst reducing 'forever chemicals'. Our onboarding of new manufacturers has enabled us to further elevate the overall quality that defines the Merlin brand. From our modest beginnings on the outskirts of Birmingham, UK, Merlin has expanded its reach to over 20 countries worldwide with both a UK and North American setup. Established back in 2011 by five seasoned riders with extensive experience in the motorcycle industry, the vision was to anticipate and shape the ever-evolving market. By riders, for riders, we always strive to create products that lead the way. An exciting year ahead! All products can be seen at www.merlinbikegear.com

In 2023 I was proud to work with Bennetts Motorcycling Services Ltd to launch the High Performance Awards, which are designed to help #motorcycle riders cut through the complexities (and sometimes marketing cobblers) that surround #personalprotectiveequipment. In 2024 the awards are going to really start making an impact, so I'm excited about what we have in store, and what it all means for riders in the UK and further afield... Big thanks to Ashley Watson, Brian Sansom, Robert Souery, Joe Cullen, Chris Easterford, Martin King, James Franklin, Hendrina Lombard-Ogilvie, Henry Fletcher, Stefan Barnes, Mark Kingham, Stuart Millington, Reena Mistry, Fowlers Motorcycles, Dan Sager and Riz Mike. And of course everyone else at BKS Made-to-Measure, Bowtex, Goldtop, Hood jeans, Motohaus Powersports, The Merlin Partnership Ltd, MotoGirl Ltd, Oxford Products Ltd, Resurgence Gear, Dot 4 Distribution Ltd, Roadskin, and RST for supporting riders who want to make informed choices when it comes to their safety, not to mention of course the experts who offer so much help and advice when I need it, like Paul Varnsverry and Christopher Hurren, and the notified bodies that are already on board – SATRA, Intertek and Eurofins Regulatory Science Services
