Cycling Half Finger Gloves with Leather Palm and Mesh Back
43 grams with a leather cloak palm and 3 mm SBR padding
What It Is and Who It Is For
A half finger cycling glove weighing 43 grams, built on a black B054 single warp plain weave back combined with fine towelling and a 30 gauge mesh, over a leather cloak palm. The purlicue is True Ultra CBL-1, the wrist is bound in polyamide lycra and the palm carries 3 mm SBR padding. Sizes run M, L, XL and 2XL.
Why Buyers Choose This Part
Leather cloak palm
Leather grips better when damp than a synthetic palm does, and it wears in rather than wearing out.
3 mm SBR padding
The thickest palm padding specified in the glove range, for riders who get numb hands.
Towelling and 30 gauge mesh on the back
Mesh for airflow and a towelling section for wiping sweat, on a glove that is still only 43 grams.
Problems It Solves
- Synthetic palms go slippery once they are wet with sweat
- Thin padding leaves hands numb on long rides
- A solid fabric back traps heat on summer rides
Who It Is For
- Riders who want a leather palm for grip and durability
- Long-distance riders who suffer from hand numbness
- Brands positioning a premium summer glove
Application Scenarios
- Long summer road rides
- Audax and endurance events

Compared With the Alternatives
The most substantial half finger glove in the range at 43 grams, with the thickest padding at 3 mm and a leather palm. The 40 gram gloves are lighter and cheaper to build but use synthetic palms.
Customisation and Manufacturing
Gloves are customised panel by panel. The back of hand fabric, the palm material, the padding thickness and the colourway are separate decisions, and the size run can be graded to your own pattern rather than ours.
- Colourway and back of hand fabric changed to your specification
- Padding thickness specified in millimetres
- Sizing graded to your own pattern
- Woven label and hang tag applied at packing
Fitting and Living With It
Step 1
Leather palms mould to the hand. Expect a short break-in before they feel right.
Step 2
Do not machine dry. Heat hardens leather and it will not soften again.
Step 3
Rinse salt out after hot rides, then dry flat and away from a radiator.
Step 4
Use the towelling panel on the back for sweat rather than your jersey.
