The Altura Airstream Unisex Cycling Mitts are designed for adult cyclists seeking comfort and hand protection with a stylish, minimalist aesthetic. Their key benefit is the combination of memory foam padding and a smooth Amara suede palm for superior comfort during rides. A minor caveat is that the minimalist design might lack extensive features found in more complex mitts. These mitts feature a high-wicking backhand, a full Amara suede palm with perforations, memory foam padding, and finger pull tabs for easy removal.

The Altura Airstream Mitts are designed primarily for mild to warm conditions. They offer some insulation but are not intended for cold or winter cycling. For colder weather, consider insulated cycling gloves.
Measure the circumference of your palm around the widest part, excluding the thumb. Compare this measurement to the sizing chart provided by Altura to find your best fit. Ensure a snug feel without restricting hand movement.
Yes, the design allows for full dexterity and tactile feedback, making them suitable for use with electronic or mechanical shift levers.
Amara suede is known for its durability and grip. With proper care and cleaning, the palm should maintain its performance characteristics for a considerable riding season.
The memory foam padding provides superior cushioning and shock absorption, significantly reducing hand fatigue and increasing comfort on longer rides or rougher surfaces.
No, these mitts are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability and moisture-wicking in fair weather conditions.
It means the fabric on the back of your hand is engineered to quickly draw moisture (sweat) away from your skin and help it evaporate, keeping your hands drier and more comfortable.
Ensure you have selected the correct size by consulting the sizing guide. A proper fit should be snug but not constricting, allowing full finger movement.
Clean the Amara suede palm gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to air dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
Ensure the bonded cuff is lying flat against the skin and not folded or bunched up. If irritation persists, consider the fit or if another glove style might be more suitable.
Setup: These mitts require no setup; simply wear them on your hands for cycling. Ensure a snug but comfortable fit, with the bonded cuff resting smoothly against your wrist.
Compatibility: Designed for adult cyclists of all genders, these mitts are compatible with all types of drop-bar and flat-bar bicycles. They are intended to be worn on bare hands, offering a direct interface with the handlebars.
