FAQs
Are these gloves touchscreen compatible?
The Roubaix Gel 2 series is optimized for cycling performance and comfort; please check specific labeling if touchscreen capability is a requirement.
Can I put these gloves in the washing machine?
While machine washing is possible on a gentle cycle, hand washing is strongly recommended to preserve the integrity of the gel padding and materials.
What is the temperature range for these gloves?
They are best suited for cool to mild conditions, typically found during spring and autumn riding.
How do I determine my size?
Measure the circumference of your hand around the knuckles (excluding the thumb) and compare this to the Castelli size chart.
Does the gel padding wear out?
The gel padding is durable and designed to maintain its shape over many rides, provided the washing and care instructions are followed.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel slippery during heavy perspiration
Ensure the gloves are correctly sized to your hand; if the fit is too loose, the perforations cannot effectively wick moisture.
Hook-and-loop closure losing stickiness
Remove lint and debris trapped in the hook portion using a fine-toothed comb or small brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Castelli Roubaix Gel 2 gloves, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Fitting: Adjust the hook-and-loop strap until snug, but avoid overtightening to maintain healthy circulation.
- Washing: Hand wash is recommended using mild soap and cool water to prevent damage to the gel padding.
- Drying: Air dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Never machine dry or expose the gloves to direct high heat, as this can degrade the synthetic fibers and neoprene.
- Storage: Store in a dry place, away from direct sunlight, which can cause colors to fade and materials to lose elasticity over time.
