Cycling gloves are considered by some to be an optional fashion accessory, solely intended to make cyclists look more like professionals. However, even for casual riders, cycling gloves have benefits that improve the overall riding experience. 

PROTECTION

The most important aspect of our gloves is that they protect and comfort cyclists’ hands. The constant pressure, friction and vibration on palms and fingers can lead to calluses, blisters and general discomfort.

The padding and extra protective layer of gloves greatly reduces the chance of skin irritations forming. For very long rides, cyclists can also experience numbness or tingling from the pressure in their wrists. Riders are less likely to experience this with cycling gloves.

Another protective factor of cycling gloves is shock absorption. Bumps in the ground cause energy shocks through the arms and towards the hands, and this is particularly the case with mountain bikers.

The padding on cycling gloves absorbs most of the impact so the ride will feel smoother. Shocks also occur if a cyclist falls off their bike. Even the most professional cyclists fall off their bikes occasionally. Our Cycling gloves will help absorb the shock and protect the skin from damage when this occurs.

GRIP

Cyclists must grip their hands on the handlebars for a smooth and stable ride, however this can be difficult when hands become sweaty. Fatigue and bumps can also contribute to a lack of grip and increase the chance of falling. The material used in cycling gloves provides a better grip than bare hands and wicks away sweat. 

TEMPERATURE

Our winter Glover are thicker with arctic velvet to keep hands warm and block the wind. Riding without warm gloves on a winter morning is very challenging!
