Soften every kilometre with the Shimano Explorer Gel gloves, built so your hands stay fresh and connected on long touring and all-day rides. Gel padding takes the sting out of rough roads and trail buzz, while breathable recycled fabrics keep the heat down when the pace picks up.

Highlights

• Gel palm padding soaks up impacts and road vibration for less hand fatigue
• Three-piece palm with an ergonomic finger crotch wraps the hand naturally for a secure grip
• Breathable mesh back and stretchy panels let your hands cool and move freely
• Soft terry cloth on the thumb to wipe away sweat on the move
• Made largely from recycled materials for a lower-impact ride

Comfort that lasts

The cushioned gel sits across the palm where pressure builds up over the hours, easing numbness and hot spots so you can stay out longer. A grippy synthetic suede palm keeps a confident hold on the bars in the dry and the damp.

Breathable and easy to wear

A mesh back of the hand and stretchy finger crotch keep air moving and let the glove flex with you. Mid-length slip-on cuffs make them quick to pull on and off, with no fiddly closures to deal with.
