- Three-piece palm and ergonomic finger crotch follow the natural shape of your hand for better dexterity

- Mid-length slip-on cuffs go on and off quickly with no fuss

Comfort that lasts
The gel padding is placed across the palm to dampen vibration and absorb impacts, so your hands feel fresher deep into a ride. A three-piece palm with an ergonomic finger crotch lets your fingers move naturally for easy control and reach to the levers.
Grip and breathability
A synthetic suede palm delivers a tenacious, non-slip connection to the handlebars, while the breathable mesh on the back of the hand helps shed heat on warm days and hard efforts.
Easy on, easy off
Mid-length slip-on cuffs mean no straps to fuss with at the trailhead or cafe stop, and the stretchy finger crotch and cuffs keep the fit close and secure.
