Built for long, all-day rides, the Shimano Explorer Gel gloves soften the road and keep your hands fresh so you can stay comfortable and in control for hours. Gel padding takes the sting out of rough surfaces, while a breathable build lets your hands stay cool from the first kilometre to the last.

Highlights

  • Gel palm padding absorbs road and trail vibration to reduce hand fatigue on longer rides
  • Original three-piece palm and ergonomic finger crotch wrap the hand for a more natural, comfortable fit
  • Grippy synthetic suede palm gives confident control of the bars and levers
  • Breathable mesh back keeps your hands cool and dry
  • Mid-length slip-on cuffs pull on quickly with no straps to fuss over
  • Unisex fit in a Jade gray colourway

Comfort that lasts

Gel padding paired with memory foam and soft sponge cushioning sits across the palm to dampen vibration and ease pressure points, so your hands feel fresher at the end of a big day in the saddle.

A natural, secure grip

The original three-piece palm and ergonomic finger crotch are shaped to follow the hand, reducing bunching and bulk where you grip. A grippy synthetic suede palm made with recycled polyester keeps your hold on the bars and levers sure and connected.

Stays cool

A breathable mesh back, made with recycled polyester, lets heat escape and air move through, while stretchy finger and cuff panels move with your hand for an easy, unrestricted feel.
