GORE C5 Trail Gloves
With exceptional durability and abrasion resistance guaranteed whilst remaining extremely lightweight, the GORE C5 Trail Gloves are the perfect go-to mountain biking gloves no matter what time of the year it is.
With thick gel padding covering the palm of the hand, this will mean that all heavy shocks from bumps in the road will be absorbed instantly and effectively, taking some of the force away from causing damage. As well as this, the gel and padded palm of the glove will prevent blisters on areas where the hand rubs against the handlebars, which will leave you feeling irritant-free. As you get further into the ride and your body begins to warm up, the material will allow a constant flow of air in and out. The warm air that builds up within is able to escape out, whilst cooler air can then enter. This whole process will work over a long period of time to keep you feeling ventilated and comfortable. As well as this, the material will wick moisture away extremely efficiently and effectively, keeping you feeling dry and comfortable. Grippy silicone on the thumbs, forefingers and palms will give you exceptional control on the handlebars, particularly when faced with technical descents. A box and roll fingertip construction will increase your dexterity, as well as reducing bulk. A specially reinforced palm will improve the durability by making the gloves extremely abrasion-resistant. Allowing you to achieve a personalised fit is a velcro closure system. This will hold the gloves securely around the wrist, with no distractions to knock you out of your stride. Reflective details will enhance the visibility and safety during night time and low-light riding. With screen compatible fingertips, this will allow you to use your touchscreen devices without having to take the gloves off.
