What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "These gloves are my go-to for enduro days when I'm brushing past branches and hitting rough lines. The D3O protection on the knuckles is noticeable but not bulky, and the AX Suede palm gives me tons of grip without losing bar feel. The Ariaprene backhand breathes really well, so they stay comfortable even on long, hot laps." We pull on the Giro Gnar Glove when the ride plan includes steep descents, overgrown singletrack, and long days working technical terrain. The Ariaprene backhand keeps airflow steady as the pace picks up, while the AX Suede palm delivers that confident, tacky grip we trust on fast drops and tight corners. For rougher features, integrated D3O Impact Additive TPR along the knuckles helps shield our hands from passing brush and unexpected trail clutter. A 3mm D3O crash pad adds another layer of confidence when the terrain turns unpredictable. Secure closure, breathable construction, and durable contact points make the Gnar a trustworthy companion for aggressive riding.
