Waterproof gloves have, in the past, potentially been a bit of a hit and miss product in the cycling world. With many arguably not being waterproof enough or just an odd fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, due to extensive research and development waterproof gloves are now both comfy as well as actually waterproof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Keep Your Hands Dry While Cycling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First and foremost, the most effectively way of keeping your hands dry while cycling is: wearing waterproof gloves. Much like waterproof overshoes<\/a>, over trousers<\/a> and socks<\/a>, waterproof products are a solid go-to for keeping any part of your body dry while riding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, I’d highly recommend taking a spare pair of gloves in your pocket or alternatively in a bar bag. This is so that you can swap to the spare dry ones when your first set become wet. However this can be a little impractical, but it’s still a good method to use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another top tip to help keep your hands dry while cycling would be to wear latex style gloves underneath your regularly ones. This may be a bit of an old school trick but it does work quite effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n

    Cycling Gloves vs Regular Gloves<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Cycling gloves can be very different to regular gloves. For example cycling gloves often have a protective gel padding on the palm in order to prevent your hands from going numb. However, regular gloves don’t tend to include this as it’s a very specific need for cyclists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Additionally, regular gloves also tend to have a fleecy or wooly texture, whereas more often than not cycling gloves tend to be made from synthetic material, but may still have a fleece lining inside for comfort and warmth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Lastly, cycling gloves often have a microfibre thumb for wiping your nose or face on: not many regular gloves posses this design feature as it’s not often needed unless exercising and thus sweating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
