Made from a combination of breathable and durable fabrics the Essential DH Glove has been designed to provide the best feel and protection for downhill riders. The gloves incorporate EVa padding across the knuckles to provide protection against falls and abrasion whilst the low wrist, ventilated palm and moisture wicking lycra on the back of the hand ensure that they are gloves that stay dry and can be used all day. Silicon tabs on the braking fingers ensure good braking feel, security and feedback. The gloves also include a terrycloth nose wipe, silicon pull tabs for securing the fit and highly practical touch screen compatible thumbs.
