Weise Fjord gloves

-

Gone are the days when you just had one pair of gloves that you wore all year round, regardless of whether they were too hot and bulky in summer and then suddenly too thin and puny in winter. Now manufactur­ers produce ranges of summer and winter gloves and even, in the case of Weise, autumn gloves!

Now, it’s not quite as daft or extravagan­t as it might seem.

We all know that this time of year can be mercurial in nature, sometimes a freezing wind and sometimes warm sunshine – and often on the same ride out!

Weise Fjord gloves are designed to deal with unpredicta­ble autumn weather conditions, yet offer the fit, feel and comfort of a summer glove, making them the perfect partner for mid-season rides. Made from full grain leather and textile, they’re durable as well as soft and supple. Stretch panels on the fingers and back of the hand help with precise operation of the controls while the palms feature a silicone print detail for extra grip on wet bars. Both the index fingers and thumbs are touchscree­n compatible, so there’s no need to remove them to operate devices. A waterproof, windproof and breathable liner keeps hands dry, while the fleece inner lining insulates on those chilly morning and evening rides, providing a luxurious feel. Getting hands in and out is quick and easy thanks to elastic at the wrist, while hook-and-eye closure allows plenty of adjustment, so they can be worn over or under jacket cuffs. Weise Fjord gloves come in classic black, sizes S-3XL, and retail at £49.99 including VAT.
