FAQs
Are these gloves machine washable?
Hand washing is highly recommended to preserve the integrity of the gel padding and materials.
Are these suitable for cold weather?
These gloves are designed for breathability and are best suited for mild to warm riding conditions.
Do they provide touchscreen compatibility?
Please check your specific model, but generally, standard cycling gloves should be removed for complex touchscreen interactions.
How do I determine my size?
Measure the circumference of your hand at the widest point and consult the Castelli sizing chart.
Is the padding thick?
The gel padding is designed to be ergonomic and low-profile to maintain a tactile feel of the handlebars while absorbing road buzz.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel too tight during long rides
Loosen the hook-and-loop closure slightly to allow for hand expansion during warmer conditions.
Grip feels diminished
Wash the palm area with mild soap to remove oils and debris that can accumulate and reduce friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your gloves remain in top condition, start by adjusting the hook-and-loop closure to your preferred tension level before starting your ride. When cleaning, avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners, which can degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the palm material. It is recommended to hand wash the gloves in cool water with a mild soap and hang them to air dry away from direct sunlight. Do not wring the gloves out, as this can damage the internal structure of the gel padding.
