What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"These gloves check all the boxes-durable, breathable, and the bar feel is unreal. I've ridden them through wet roots and loose switchbacks, and the grip stays consistent. The fit is snug without restricting movement, and the suede palm is surprisingly airy for how protective it is."When we're pushing through back-to-back descents or grinding out miles in unpredictable weather, the Freewheel MTB XT Bike Glove keeps us fully in control. Outdoor Research designed this trail-tested glove for aggressive riding with abrasion-resistant bluesign(R)-approved fabric, DuraPrint(TM) overlays for durability, and a breathable synthetic suede palm that doesn't compromise on feel. With a 4-way stretch construction that mirrors movement and silicone grip zones that lock in confidence on the bar, these gloves are built for precision handling. Details like a touchscreen-compatible fingertip, hook-and-loop wrist closure, and a thumb sweat wipe round it out as our go-to for high-output days in the saddle.
