This model defies the typical image of "waterproof gloves are hard to move in" in a good way.
Since they are knit-based, finger movement is natural, making brake and shift operations easy, which makes them very user-friendly for cycling. They are useful not only on rainy days but also for rides in seasons when you want to block cold wind.
Personally, rather than being for mid-winter only, they are a versatile type that can be used for a long time from autumn to winter and early spring. The merino wool blend material makes them breathable, and the sustained comfort is also appealing.
Being smartphone compatible, there's no need to take off your gloves every time you check navigation or take photos, which is a nice touch. This pair is highly recommended for everything from daily use to long rides.
