All-day comfort
The strategically placed memory foam and soft sponge padding cushions your palms against road and trail vibration, helping reduce hand fatigue on longer tours. The original three-piece palm and ergonomic finger crotch are shaped to follow your hand's natural contours, minimising pressure points and bunching.
Grip and control
A grippy synthetic suede leather palm gives you a reliable, confident hold on the bars and controls without sacrificing comfort, so you stay in command on rough or loose surfaces.
Breathable and easy to wear
A breathable mesh back lets built-up heat escape to keep your hands cooler in warm conditions, while stretchy panels between the fingers allow natural movement and improved dexterity. Mid-length slip-on cuffs make them quick to pull on and take off.
