Full details

The key benefit is superior warmth and comfort provided by Primaloft® thermal insulation, ensuring your hands stay protected during the chilliest rides. A potential caveat is their specialized design for harsh weather, which might make them warmer than necessary for milder conditions.

FAQs

What is Primaloft® insulation?

Primaloft® is a high-performance synthetic insulation known for its warmth, water resistance, and breathability, providing excellent thermal comfort without significant weight.

Are these gloves suitable for all winter cycling conditions?

They are designed for cold and wet conditions. For extreme sub-zero temperatures or very short, intense rides where overheating is a concern, consider your specific needs.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. The wrist closure helps to secure the fit and prevent movement during rides.

Can I wash these gloves in a washing machine?

It is recommended to hand wash the gloves in cool water with mild detergent to preserve the integrity of the materials and waterproofing. Avoid machine washing and harsh detergents.

How durable are the silicone grip elements?

The silicone grip is designed for enhanced handlebar control and should withstand normal cycling use. Avoid excessive rubbing against abrasive surfaces to maintain their effectiveness.

What makes these gloves waterproof?

The gloves feature a waterproof outer material and construction designed to prevent water from penetrating the glove, keeping your hands dry from external moisture.

Troubleshooting

Hands feel cold despite wearing gloves

Ensure gloves are fully dry before use. Check that the wrist closure is snug to prevent drafts. For extreme cold, consider layering with a thinner liner glove.

Touch screen is not responsive

Ensure the glove surface is clean and dry. Press firmly and directly on the screen. Some heavily textured screen protectors may reduce sensitivity.

Gloves feel damp inside after use

This may be due to perspiration. Ensure gloves are completely dried after each use following the care instructions. Proper ventilation during milder rides can help manage moisture buildup.

Waterproofing seems to be compromised

Inspect the gloves for any visible tears or damage to the outer fabric or seams. Follow the care instructions to maintain the fabric's water-repellent properties. Re-waterproofing treatments may be necessary over time.
