Shimano's Explorer gloves are built for long-distance touring and all-day rides, pairing a cushioned, vibration-dampening palm with a breathable mesh back so your hands stay comfortable and connected to the bars from the first kilometre to the last.
Highlights
- Memory foam and soft sponge padding cushions the palm and helps dampen road and trail buzz
- Grippy synthetic suede leather palm for confident, secure control of the cockpit
- Breathable mesh back keeps your hands cool on warm rides
- Original three-piece palm and ergonomic finger construction for a natural, low-bunch fit
- Mid-length slip-on cuffs for quick, fuss-free on and off
- Made largely from recycled materials
Comfort that lasts the distance
The strategically placed memory foam and soft sponge padding takes the sting out of long hours in the saddle, soaking up vibration so your hands feel fresher at the end of a big day. The three-piece palm and ergonomic finger shaping follow the natural contours of your hand, reducing bunching and pressure points.
Grip and control
A grippy synthetic suede leather palm gives you a reliable hold on the bars, levers and shifters in dry or sweaty conditions, so you stay in command whether you are touring sealed roads or exploring gravel.
Stays cool
The breathable mesh back and stretch panels let air move freely and flex with your hand, helping manage heat and moisture on warmer days.
Compatibility & fit
Unisex short-finger cycling glove suited to road, touring, commuting and gravel riding. Available in multiple sizes (S, M, L, XL, 2XL) in black. Measure your hand and check Shimano's size guide to choose your fit.
