Giro’s commuting gloves feature all the technology from their race range: a three-piece palm made from synthetic Clarino leather and slim, high density EVA padding, plus tacky-to-the-touch accents on the fingers for better control. The upper is made from a stretchy fabric with open weave sides and an elasticated cuff (backed up by a leather closure with popper).
Fit is excellent and the padding is great, though the gloves are better for spring as the open weave sides of the fingers mean they’re too cold on cooler mornings. Aside from around town duties, these are more than technical enough to be used as out-and-out road gloves. Available in brown plaid, blue plaid and houndstooth tweed.
