As the name suggests, the Night Vision features loads of reflective trim, but it's by no means a one-trick pony.

This glove is fully waterproof, with Thinsulate's slender insulation providing a middling level of warmth, and there's a handy sweat wipe on the back of the thumb. The durable synthetic leather palm features a reinforcing panel plus gel padding that's well placed to take the sting out of rough roads. These gloves are impressively breathable, the polyester lining is antibacterial, and the cuff offers a generous amount of adjustment. Excellent stuff!

  • ...excellent...can't fault them...

  • I have a pair of these and they are brilliant. Unfortunately, Altura has brought out a new version, which cost more, but which are more 'feature-rich'. The new ones have separate inner and outer glove. Unfortunately they leak like a sieve and the inner gloves have started to come apart after less than a month of use. I've gone back to my two-year-old ones!
