How to choose long finger gloves

Long finger gloves protect your hands in a crash, improve grip and keep your fingers warm. Here's how to choose.

MTB gloves

Thin, flexible gloves with good bar feel and grippy palms for trail, enduro and downhill.

Winter gloves

Thermal and windproof gloves keep fingers warm and working on cold road rides.

Padding

Gel or foam padding reduces vibration and numbness. Less padding gives better bar feel.

Protection

Knuckle and finger padding adds impact protection for rough and gravity riding.

Touchscreen tips

Touch-compatible fingertips let you use your phone or bike computer without removing gloves.

Fit

Gloves should be snug with no bunching in the palm. Check the brand's size chart.

For hot days, see short finger gloves, or pair your gloves with fresh grips.
