Product Information

Full details

The POC Agile Short Gloves are designed for adult cyclists seeking maximum breathability and comfort during hot summer rides. Their key benefit lies in their lightweight, ventilated construction that effectively reduces heat and sweat build-up, maintaining a direct feel on the handlebars. A potential caveat for some users might be the thin palm, which offers excellent feedback but less padding than thicker gloves. These gloves feature a mesh back, ventilated palm, a thin palm construction for bar feel, silicone grip details, a terrycloth nosewipe, and a short finger design.

FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for cold weather?

No, the POC Agile Short Gloves are specifically designed for warm weather due to their lightweight and highly breathable construction. They offer minimal insulation.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart, which typically involves measuring the circumference of your palm. A good fit should be snug but not constrictive, allowing for full finger movement.

Can I use the terrycloth nosewipe while wearing sunglasses?

Yes, the terrycloth is positioned for easy access. While wearing sunglasses, you can still gently wipe your nose or forehead with the back of your hand where the terrycloth is located.

How durable is the thin palm construction?

The thin palm offers excellent bar feel and grip. For everyday road cycling and training, it is durable. However, for activities involving significant contact with rough surfaces, like mountain biking, a more robust glove might be preferable.

What is the main advantage of the short finger design?

The short finger design enhances ventilation and freedom of movement, making them ideal for summer riding conditions where maximum airflow and dexterity are desired.

Will these gloves provide cushioning for long rides?

These gloves prioritize a direct feel on the handlebars and breathability over significant padding. While the fit is comfort-focused, riders seeking substantial cushioning for very long or rough rides might need gloves with thicker palms.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the fit is still too snug, consider trying a larger size if available, or explore gloves with more stretch.

Reduced grip over time

Gently clean the palm and silicone grip areas with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure they are fully dry before use. Avoid using lotions or creams before wearing the gloves, as this can make the palms slippery.

Seams coming undone

Inspect the gloves for any loose threads. If a seam appears to be significantly unraveling, it may be a manufacturing defect. Contact customer support for assistance.
