SPORTFUL PADDED Short Gloves Black

The Gloves Sportful Padded are essential short gloves (mitts) for cyclists seeking reliable palm protection without sacrificing lightness. Ideal for long road rides, gravel routes or cycle touring, they are designed to shield your hands from road imperfections and repetitive handlebar vibrations.

The key feature of this model lies in its ergonomic padding insert, judiciously positioned on the palm. It helps to distribute pressure and reduce numbness caused by cycling vibrations. On the back, a stretch and lightweight fabric ensures excellent breathability to keep your hands cool and dry, even when temperatures soar in the height of summer.

Is the padding very thick or discreet? Sportful has opted for a very well-balanced medium padding. It is dense enough to effectively absorb shocks and prevent carpal tunnel pain during multi-hour rides, yet thin enough to maintain excellent handling sensations and a good grip on the brake levers.

Do these gloves protect in the event of a fall? Yes, that is one of their main roles. In addition to pedalling comfort, the durable palm fabric acts as a thermal and mechanical shield in the event of a slide on tarmac or gravel, protecting the skin of your hands from abrasions.
