FAQs

Are these gloves machine washable?

Hand washing is highly recommended to preserve the integrity of the suede palm and gel padding.

Do these mitts offer sun protection?

The backhand fabric provides a barrier against the sun, but these are primarily designed for comfort and grip rather than specific UPF ratings.

Can I use these for mountain biking?

Yes, they provide excellent grip and vibration damping for XC and light trail riding, though full-finger gloves are usually preferred for technical terrain.

How do I determine my size?

Measure the circumference of your hand around the knuckles (excluding the thumb) and compare it against the Altura sizing chart.

What is the primary material used in the palm?

The palm is made from durable suede, selected for its grip and resistance to wear.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel stiff after washing

Gently massage the suede palm while damp to restore flexibility and prevent hardening as it dries.

Palm grip feels slippery

Wipe the palms with a slightly damp cloth to remove built-up road grime or sweat residue.

Pull tabs are difficult to grab

Ensure your fingers are positioned correctly on the tabs before pulling; a quick, steady motion is more effective than a slow pull.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior vibration damping with ProGel technology
  • Highly breathable backhand fabric for warm weather
  • Secure and comfortable fit that adapts to hand movement
  • Easy removal system via integrated pull tabs
  • Effective sweat wipe integration

Cons

  • Suede material requires careful cleaning to prevent stiffness
  • Limited coverage as a fingerless design
  • May require breaking in for optimal palm flexibility

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Altura ProGel mitts, proper care is essential:

  1. Fitting: Ensure the gloves sit snugly across the palm without restricting circulation. The wrist closure should be adjusted so the gloves stay in place while riding.
  2. Cleaning: Hand wash in cool water using a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals that can strip the natural feel of the suede.
  3. Drying: Air dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Never tumble dry or place directly on heat sources, as this will cause the suede to shrink and harden.
  4. Storage: Keep away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material degradation.
