Let’s face it: We all like to ride when we want and where we want. But we don’t always experience ideal conditions.
Sometimes we ride when it’s frigid, and the wind chill is dangerously cold; sometimes, we ride when it’s wet, and we’re drenched in minutes.
And sometimes we ride in hail, sleet, and snow, and on any given day, we can be faced with a surprise summer shower that can ruin a good ride.
There’s no way around it. Gloves are pretty important when it comes to riding.
They keep your hands warm in the cold, dry when wet, and can help save your hide in an accident with good armour.
Choosing the right pair is essential, so you want to keep some things in mind when picking out your next set.
And Dianese has come up with new gloves to protect your hands while riding against the cold weather conditions.
The Thunder Gore-Tex is a short gauntlet-style glove that is thin but heavily insulated in the palm.
The back of the hand has thermal Dexfil padding to help protect against any complex objects you might run into when riding, plus the cold weather.
The strap is soft and stretchy, with an elastic cinch to make it easy to pull tight around your wrist while staying secure.
