Pearl Izumi Elite MTB Gloves

BikeRadar verdict

4 out of 5 stars

"One of the best trail gloves around"

Sun 24 May 2009, 4:00 pm UTCBy Justin Loretz, What Mountain Bike

Some companies manage to make gloves that fit hands, and some don't. Pearl Izumi fall into the former category and never more obviously than with this snugly fitting glove.

The construction of the Elite MTBs is simple, with an unpadded yet reinforced palm for feel and durability.

The backing looks pretty uninspiring but is lined with a moisture-wicking bamboo mesh layer for a cool and stink-free performance even after a full summer of sweaty use.
