Pearl Izumi Cyclone Glove

These gloves are designed specifically for cool-weather riding, typically ranging from 40°F to 55°F (4°C to 13°C). They provide enough insulation to block wind and light rain without being bulky enough to compromise your dexterity.

The three-layer softshell back of the hand is water-resistant and windproof, which effectively protects against road spray and light drizzle. However, they are not fully waterproof, so they may soak through during heavy or prolonged downpours.

The Cyclone features new 3D-shaped gel pads that are designed to be thinner and more contoured than traditional padding. This reduces bulk, allowing for a more natural, tactile feel on the bars while still providing the vibration dampening needed for longer rides.

Yes, the gloves feature a longer gauntlet design specifically intended to create a seamless overlap with your jacket sleeves. This prevents cold air from sneaking in at the wrist, ensuring better thermal protection.

The Cyclone gloves are primarily focused on wind protection and grip, and they do not feature dedicated touchscreen-compatible fingertips. You will likely need to remove the gloves to operate a smartphone or cycling computer.

To preserve the integrity of the synthetic leather palm and the softshell fabric, we recommend hand washing with a mild detergent and air drying. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the technical properties of the materials.
