About MTB Gloves
MTB gloves are designed to improve grip, protect your hands and keep you comfortable on rough terrain. They use durable materials, breathable fabrics and riding specific fits to help you stay in control on technical trails.
Lightweight and Summer Gloves
Lightweight gloves use thin, breathable fabrics that keep your hands cool on warm days. They offer good bar feel and quick drying performance, making them ideal for trail centres and summer laps.
Full Finger Gloves
Full finger gloves are the standard choice for mountain biking. They protect your hands from branches, rocks and rough grips while maintaining good control. Many use silicone print on the fingers for better braking and shifting.
Insulated and Cold Weather Gloves
Insulated gloves add warmth for winter riding. They use thermal linings, windproof fabrics and water resistant finishes to keep your hands warm and dry in cold, wet conditions. These gloves work well for long winter rides and exposed trails.
Waterproof Gloves
Waterproof gloves use membranes and sealed construction to keep out rain and spray. They are useful for winter commuting, wet trail days and muddy conditions. Breathability helps manage heat during harder efforts.
Technical Fabrics
Modern MTB gloves use stretch fabrics, reinforced palms and touchscreen compatible fingertips. These features improve comfort, durability and ease of use on the bike. Many gloves also include moisture wicking materials to keep hands dry.
Fit and Comfort
MTB gloves should fit close without feeling tight. A good fit improves grip and reduces hand fatigue. Adjustable cuffs help secure the glove, while pre shaped fingers improve comfort in riding position. Women’s specific fits are available across most ranges.
