Cycling Gloves

What are the benefits of wearing cycling gloves?

Cycling gloves have a protective function. When you fall, your first reflex is to catch yourself with your hands. Wearing cycling gloves reduces the risk of hand injuries. But wearing cycling gloves has even more benefits! Since you constantly hold onto the handlebars while cycling, you are at risk of getting blisters. Cycling gloves can prevent painful blisters on the hands, and thanks to the shock-absorbing padding, they can also protect the rest of your hands and even your wrists from handlebar vibrations. Cycling gloves provide sufficient grip and prevent slippery hands when you start sweating.

Which cycling glove suits me best?

There are different types of cycling gloves, including fingerless gloves and full-finger gloves. It is important that the cycling glove is made of breathable material. If the cycling glove is used during colder months, it should be made of windproof and water-repellent material. Most cycling gloves have a piece of terry cloth for wiping away sweat. You can also differentiate between cycling gloves designed for summer months and those for winter months. Winter cycling gloves are thicker and longer to protect not only your hands but also your wrists from falls and cold weather. Summer cycling gloves should be made of thinner and breathable material to prevent excessive sweating due to gloves made of thick material.

The best cycling gloves are...

When choosing the best cycling gloves, personal preference plays a significant role. You may have had a good experience with a particular brand or find it important that cycling gloves have additional technical features. For example, Rogelli uses DynaTech R-Star technology to make the cycling gloves windproof and water-repellent. Craft, on the other hand, applies the Keep Warm technology combined with Thinsulate insulation material to retain body heat effectively.
