SALSA CYCLES TEAM POLYTONE HANDUP GLOVES｜Ride Gloves Designed for a Barehanded Feel
For riders who value a seamless connection with their handlebars.
In gravel and mountain biking, there are many situations that require delicate bike control while sensing changes in the road surface. The "TEAM POLYTONE HANDUP GLOVES," a collaboration between Salsa Cycles and Handup, were created to meet the demands of this riding style.
Their appeal lies in their simple structure, devoid of unnecessary embellishments, and their direct, barehanded feel. They support natural riding by transmitting feedback from the handlebars without loss of feel.
The back of the hand uses a 4-way stretch lightweight mesh material, ensuring high breathability and freedom of movement. The palm features a single-layer Clarino leather construction, which minimizes fabric overlap while providing excellent operability.
