Cycling Gloves

Cycling gloves for every type of ride

Cycling gloves help improve your grip on the handlebar and protect your hands while riding. The right choice depends on how you ride: for road cycling, lightweight designs that provide good control are often preferred, while mountain riders should consider the level of coverage and protection needed for the terrain and riding style.

The season and length of your rides also matter. A more ventilated design may be suitable in mild temperatures, while cold-weather riding calls for attention to insulation and coverage. In every case, gloves should let you move your fingers freely without limiting control of the brakes, shifters, or other controls.

How to choose the size and fit

• Check the size guide and measure your hand according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Make sure your fingers reach the ends without pressure and that your palm is fully covered.
• Review the closure system to ensure a secure fit without discomfort or excessive looseness.
• Consider palm padding and back-of-hand protection based on the type of cycling you do.
• If you use a touchscreen, specifically check that the design supports this function.
