The Gradient 2.0 is our latest collaboration with Philleywood, developed from our Strasse series with a shorter, above-the-wrist profile for increased mobility and versatile 3-season use. Designed for everything from cold days around town to long-distance cycling and backcountry use.The back of the hand, thumb, and fourchettes are constructed from PolartecA(R) Wind ProA(R) HardfaceA(R), a Made in USA fleece that combines four-way stretch with warmth, breathability, snag resistance, and wind and water resistance.The palm, knuckle guard, pull strap, and finger protectors are made from Siciliano Pellami WR Hydronaut aniline goatskin leather. Tanned and treated in Italy, the PFAS-free leather provides excellent water, perspiration, and abrasion resistance while maintaining a soft hand and high breathability.Like our previous collaborations, the Gradient 2.0 is handmade in California in numbered batches, combining traditional glove construction with advanced materials and practical details designed for comfort, durability, and extended use.
