Assos ASSOSOIRES Ultraz Winter GlovesThe Assos ASSOSOIRES Ultraz Winter Gloves are for the cyclist who won't be kept indoors by plunging temperatures and cold, icy winds. With warm hands, those winter miles will fly by. Part of the Ultraz deep winter family, the ASSOSOIRES Ultraz Winter Gloves provide exceptional levels of warmth. Windproof Airblock, constructed in a double-layer design, is paired with warm and cosy brushed lycra thermal lining and finished off with a water-resistant PU membrane. It's this combination which keeps warmth well and truly locked inside and won't let cold winds, sleet, snow or rain showers rob it away. While warmth is taken care of, breathability is also of paramount importance too - sweaty hands can soon lead to cold hands - and so each material is chosen with an excellent level of breathability in mind to ensure your skin can breathe and sweat easily escapes. Low in volume, these gloves feature extended neoprene cuffs—for that crucial jacket-to-glove intersection - and targeted palm padding throughout. As far as your hands are concerned, winter riding will never have been so comfortable.Features:Materials: 85% Polyamide, 15% ElastanePalm: 100% PolyamideLining: 100% PolyesterAirblock: A windproof and highly breathable softshell constructed with a PU bonded membrane for added water-repellencyBrushed Lycra: A flexible, ultrasoft brushed textile developed to wick moisture and add light insulationtwinDeck: Double-layer fabric construction boosts insulation using a combination of brushed Lycra and membrane-backed Airblock textilesMicrofiber Palm: A lightweight, soft material that promotes grip, while also supporting and protecting the handPalm Padding: Strategically positioned pads flex with hand to eliminate hot spots and bunchingAnatomic Cut: 'No wrinkle' construction creates a 3D curved structure, made possible using three separate textiles and five panelsReflective Accents: Small strips placed on the sides of the pinkies for added visibilityBuy Assos Cycle Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
