Product Information
Full details
These Alé Cycling Gloves are designed for adult cyclists seeking sun protection and comfort during warmer weather rides (18-35 degrees Celsius). Their key benefit lies in the SunSelect fabric, which filters UV rays for a safer tan while the traditional suede construction offers a premium feel and the anti-shock gel ensures a superior grip. A potential caveat is their specialized nature, best suited for warm conditions.
