These smart little gloves are just the thing for cooler weather. A 45/55 blend of merino wool and nylon/elastane means SmartWool’s Training Gloves will keep your hands warm even when wet plus the silicone grips keep them on the bars. Without wind-proofing they are a little light for winter riding, but their skin-tight profile makes for a great base layer. The company co-developed Zque, an ‘ethical wool’ that is traceable right back to its New Zealand source. Plus: environmental/social accountability. Minus: lack of wind-proofing.
