The Biogel Thermo Glove features a DWR treated backhand with a soft fleecey lining to help fight cold hands. Strategically placed gel padding evenly distributes pressure and absorbs vibration. There is an added layer of protection at the fingers, with the exception of the index finger and thumb - those fingers are soft to wipe sweat. An extended fitted elastic cuff fits under your jersey or jacket to stop wind from penetrating.
