Product Information
Full details
The Chiba Sport All-Round Mitt is a high-performance cycling glove designed for adult cyclists who prioritize comfort and heat management during long rides. Featuring breathable, elastic materials and slip-resistant PU leather, these mitts provide a secure grip and excellent ventilation to maintain performance. Note that the palm padding is discreet and subtle, which may not offer the heavy-duty gel protection required for ultra-endurance mountain biking or gravel racing.

FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for mountain biking?
They are ideal for road and light trail cycling. If you require heavy-duty impact protection for aggressive downhill riding, you may prefer a glove with more substantial padding.
How do I determine the correct size?
The Chiba Sport All-Round Mitt is available in multiple sizes. Measure your hand circumference across the knuckles and compare it to the standard Chiba size chart.
Can I use these gloves with a touchscreen?
These gloves are designed primarily for grip and ventilation and do not feature integrated conductive fingertips for smartphone use.
Are they effective in winter?
No, these are designed for maximum airflow and heat reduction, making them unsuitable for cold or winter weather.
What is the material composition?
The gloves use a combination of breathable elastic fabrics for the upper hand and durable, slip-resistant PU leather for the palm.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel tight initially
The elastic material is designed for a snug, aerodynamic fit. They will slightly conform to your hand shape after the first few rides.
Grip feels reduced after several uses
Oil and dirt from the handlebars can build up on the PU leather. Wash the gloves at 30 degrees Celsius to restore the original grip properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Chiba Sport All-Round Mitts, proper care is essential. Since the palms are made of specialized PU leather, avoid contact with harsh chemicals or abrasive surfaces when not in use.
Care Instructions:
- These gloves are machine washable at temperatures up to 30 degrees Celsius.
- We recommend using a mesh laundry bag to protect the material during the wash cycle.
- Always allow the gloves to air dry naturally in a shaded area; avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can damage the elastic fabric and leather grip.
- Ensure the gloves are fully dry before storage to prevent material degradation.
