Pearl Izumi AmFIB Lobster Gel Gloves

While the split-finger design is different from standard gloves, most riders adapt quickly. The design groups your fingers to retain heat, but you will still have enough dexterity to operate standard road bike shifters and brake levers effectively.

These gloves feature a softshell barrier designed to repel precipitation and block wind, making them highly water-resistant. While they will keep your hands dry in light rain or snow, they are not fully waterproof, so they may eventually soak through in a heavy, sustained downpour.

These gloves are specifically rated for 20 to 35 degrees Fahrenheit. If you are riding in temperatures consistently below 20 degrees, you may need to pair them with a thin liner glove for extra insulation, as wind chill can significantly impact warmth.

The Aerogel padding is engineered to balance vibration dampening with tactile feedback. It provides enough cushion to reduce hand fatigue on long rides without feeling overly thick or compromising your grip on the handlebars.

No, these gloves do not feature touchscreen-compatible fingertips. You will need to remove them if you need to operate a smartphone or cycling computer screen.

Because of the specialized insulation and gel padding, it is best to hand wash them in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid wringing them out, as this can damage the internal structure; instead, gently squeeze out excess water and air dry them away from direct heat sources.
