The rest of your body may be mangled beyond recognition in a serious motorcycle accident, but your hand will be pristine from the wrist up when the police find it in a nearby ditch thanks to the Handroid glove.

Seriously though, this is some bad ass body armor for you hands. It features a rugged exoskeleton that cushions impacts and prevents hyperextention of the fingers, a scaphoid protection system to prevent injuries to the bone that connects the thumb to the wrist, honeycomb gel impact protection, wrist guard shrouds, and the BOA lacing system for a superior fit.

Pricing information has not been announced, but look for it on store shelves in March. While you’re at it, you might want to protect your whole body with some of the super-advanced looking upper and lower body armor from Knox. [Knox via Uncrate via DVICE]
