Product Information

Full details

The SixSixOne Recon Advance MTB Gloves are designed for mountain bikers and downhill racers who require heavy-duty protection without sacrificing dexterity. By integrating market-leading D3O impact foam and a durable AX Suede palm, these gloves offer superior shock absorption and grip for demanding terrain, though the slip-on style may feel tight for riders with larger hands compared to traditional Velcro-closure alternatives.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I machine wash these gloves?

It is recommended to hand wash these gloves to maintain the shape and protective qualities of the D3O foam.

Are these gloves suitable for extreme winter weather?

These are designed for breathability and protection during spring, summer, and autumn; they do not provide thermal insulation for freezing temperatures.

What is D3O foam?

D3O is a non-Newtonian material that is soft and flexible in its natural state but locks together to absorb and dissipate energy upon impact.

Will the suede palm get slippery when wet?

The AX Suede material is designed for durability and grip, and the additional silicone-printed fingertips help maintain control even in damp conditions.

Are the knuckles pre-curved?

Yes, the knuckle piece is pre-curved to match the natural position of your hand on the handlebars, reducing fatigue.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty putting on the gloves

Ensure your hands are dry and slide the gloves on slowly, pulling from the palm section to avoid over-stretching the lycra inserts.

Touchscreen sensitivity seems low

Ensure the conductive patch on the thumb or index finger is clean and free of dirt or mud. A light wipe with a damp cloth usually restores function.

Pros and Cons

Pros

High-impact D3O protection is ideal for technical downhill trails
Excellent tactile feedback through the AX Suede palm material
Slim profile allows for high dexterity during technical maneuvers
Touchscreen functionality is reliable for quick trail navigation

Cons

Slip-on construction may be difficult to pull on for some users
No adjustable wrist strap for customizable tightness
D3O foam can feel slightly heavier than standard foam pads

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a long lifespan for your gloves, slide them on by pulling from the base of the palm rather than the cuff to protect the stretch fabric. These gloves are compatible with standard and lock-on mountain bike grips. For cleaning, hand wash the gloves using mild detergent and cool water to preserve the D3O foam integrity and suede palm texture. Always air dry the gloves in a shaded area; do not place them in a tumble dryer or use direct heat, as this can degrade the synthetic materials and the shock-absorbing properties of the impact inserts.
