FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for cold weather?
The POC Agile Short Glove is designed primarily for warmer conditions due to its breathable and lightweight construction. For cold weather, consider POC's full-finger or insulated glove options.
How do I determine the correct size?
Measure the circumference of your palm at its widest point and refer to the POC sizing chart. A good fit should be snug but not constricting, allowing for full hand movement.
Can I use my smartphone with these gloves on?
These gloves do not feature touchscreen-compatible fingertips. You will need to remove the gloves to operate a smartphone or GPS device.
How durable is the reinforced palm zone?
The reinforced zone is designed to withstand typical wear and tear from gripping handlebars. For very aggressive riding styles or frequent falls, inspect the area regularly for signs of wear.
What is the main benefit of the perforated palm?
The perforations increase airflow to the palm, preventing overheating and sweat buildup. They also contribute to a better feel and connection with the bike's handlebars.
Is this glove suitable for kids?
Yes, this specific variant is listed for kids, offering them comfort and control on their rides.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Stretch mesh can feel snug initially but should not cause discomfort or numbness. If discomfort persists, consider a size up.
Grip is reduced after washing.
Ensure you have followed the care instructions, especially avoiding fabric softeners. The grip should improve slightly as the gloves are used more, but if significantly reduced, the material may need replacement.
Pull tabs are difficult to use.
The pull tabs might require a few uses to become more pliable. Gently pull them from between the fingers. Avoid excessive force which could damage the tabs.
Terrycloth nose wipe is stiff.
After washing and drying, the terrycloth may feel a bit stiff. Gentle rubbing or repeated use should restore its softness.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the performance and longevity of your gloves:
