FAQs
Are these gloves suitable for winter cycling?
No, the fingerless design means these gloves offer minimal warmth and are not suitable for cold weather conditions. They are best for mild to warm weather activities.
What material is the palm made of?
The palm is made of a durable artificial leather, providing excellent grip and wear resistance.
How do I know what size to order?
Refer to the sizing guide (if available) or measure the circumference of your hand at the widest point. The elastic tophand ensures a flexible fit.
Can I use these gloves with my smartphone?
Yes, the fingerless design allows for full dexterity, making it easy to operate touchscreens on smartphones and other devices.
What is the purpose of the terry towelling thumb?
The terry towelling thumb is designed to effectively wipe away sweat from your face and forehead during intense physical activity.
How easy is it to remove the gloves?
The gloves feature a 'Quick-Pull' system with loops on the fingers, designed to make them easy and fast to take off, even with sweaty hands.
Are these gloves machine washable?
It is recommended to hand wash these gloves with mild soap in cold water. Avoid machine washing and drying to preserve the materials.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel too tight or too loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The elastic tophand material should provide a snug fit. If too tight, try a larger size; if too loose, a smaller size might be necessary.
Reduced grip after a few uses.
Clean the palm material with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow to air dry. This can help restore the grip properties.
Terry towelling thumb is not absorbing sweat effectively.
Ensure the terry towelling section is clean and free from debris. For best performance, allow it to fully dry between uses.
Gel padding feels uncomfortable.
Give your hands time to adjust to the gel padding. If discomfort persists, these gloves may not be the ideal fit for your specific needs or hand anatomy.
