Bontrager Stormshell Cycling Mitt
Best warmth for cyclists tackling cold and windy conditions.
These over-mitts are the ultimate insurance policy for riding through the absolute worst winter weather. The lobster-claw design cleverly balances essential warmth with the dexterity needed for shifting, though you do sacrifice the tactile freedom of a standard glove for that heavy-duty, waterproof protection.
