This glove is a great all-around glove for the sport, street and touring rider. Its mesh backing provides airflow and allows sweat to be wicked away, evaporating from the material quickly and leaving the rider's hands dry. The ribbed nylon knuckles are great for flexibility and protection. A gel palm reduces vibration and hand fatigue, and in the hot summer months, terry cloth on the back of the thumb even wipes sweat from your brow!
