The Aero Tech Gel Padded Crochet Cycling gloves absorb shock better with enhanced gel-filled palms. The palms of the gloves are double-layer leather and gel padding. The material is a genuine natural goatskin leather palm with a cotton crochet upper. The high-quality goatskin leather provides an excellent grip on handlebars, and can help you wipe obstacles from your tire or pad the palms from minor crashes. The open-back crochet is relaxed and comfortable. The closure is an adjustable hook and loop for easy on and off and ventilation. The Crotchet Gloves are ideal for multiple activities, including cycling, lifting, rowing, wheelchairs, and more.
