Can I use these for winter riding?
These gloves are intended for warm-weather use and do not provide thermal insulation, making them unsuitable for cold temperatures.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Measure your hand circumference across the knuckles and compare it against the RST sizing chart to ensure a secure, comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting
Touch-screen sensitivity is low
Clean the forefinger pad with a slightly damp cloth to remove skin oils and ensure the finger makes full contact with the screen.
Wrist straps are not holding
Check the hook & loop area for debris or lint buildup; use a stiff brush to clean out any captured material to restore the grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, secure the gloves using the double hook & loop straps at the wrist, ensuring they sit snugly without restricting circulation. Because these gloves feature touch-screen capability, ensure the forefinger pad remains clean of oils or dirt to maintain responsiveness. For maintenance, avoid machine washing. Instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild leather conditioner for the palm area. Allow the gloves to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, as high heat can damage the TPU protection and mesh fibers. Periodically check the palm leather for signs of excessive wear and inspect the wrist straps to ensure they maintain their adhesive grip.
