The ROCKBROS Winter Cycling Gloves are a full-finger thermal cycling glove designed for autumn and winter riding conditions. The outer shell combines polyester, microfiber, lycra, and mountaineering cloth fabric for windproofing and flexibility; the inner lining uses fleece for insulation. The 6mm thickened SBR (Styrene-Butadiene Rubber) palm pad is reinforced with silicone gel for handlebar vibration absorption and shockproofing, reducing hand fatigue and numbness on longer cold-weather rides. Conductive fiber fingertips enable touchscreen operation of GPS computers and phones without glove removal. Reflective elements improve low-light visibility. Non-slip palm construction for secure handlebar grip. Adjustable wrist closure. Washable. 10 style and color variants across the S077, S091, S109, S169, S173, S208, and S210 model families — review product images per variant for color details. Sizes S through XXL.

Key Features
- Thermal windproof construction - autumn/winter rated - The outer shell uses a combination of polyester, microfiber, and mountaineering cloth fabric to block wind at the hand surface, while the fleece inner lining traps body heat for insulation in cold riding conditions; the multi-fabric construction balances windproofing at the exposed outer surface with breathability through lycra and microfiber panels, preventing the overheating that can occur with fully sealed waterproof gloves during moderate-intensity riding; these gloves are designed for autumn and winter conditions, providing meaningful warmth at temperatures where a summer or three-season glove becomes insufficient
- 6mm SBR + silicone gel thickened palm pad - shockproof - The 6mm palm padding uses SBR rubber as the base cushioning layer with silicone gel reinforcement; the combined SBR/gel pad is thicker than standard cycling glove foam padding (typically 2-4mm) and provides greater vibration damping at the handlebar contact zone; the 6mm thickness is particularly beneficial on rough surfaces (gravel, cobblestones, trail terrain) and for longer rides where cumulative vibration causes ulnar nerve compression and hand numbness; the silicone gel component adds a secondary impact-absorbing layer and increases friction at the handlebar contact surface for grip security in cold and wet conditions; the double hook/hook shockproof design referenced in the product features provides additional damping at high-impact points
- Touchscreen conductive fiber fingertips - Selected fingertips use conductive fiber that transmits the capacitive signal required by standard touchscreens; this enables operation of GPS cycling computers, smartphones, and bike computer displays without removing the glove; particularly important in winter riding where glove removal in cold conditions is inconvenient and exposes hands rapidly to cold air; conductive fiber performance can be slightly reduced in very wet conditions (rain or heavy condensation on the glove tip) - wipe the fingertip dry on a clean section of the glove before tapping the screen if response is inconsistent
- Reflective elements - low-light visibility - Reflective panels or strips on the glove surface increase visibility to motorists and other road users during dawn, dusk, and night riding; reflective elements on gloves are particularly visible to drivers as hands move during signalling turns and braking — the motion makes reflective patches on gloves more eye-catching than static reflective panels on a jacket or bag; important for winter riding when daylight hours are shorter and more riding occurs in low-light conditions
- Non-slip palm - adjustable wrist - washable - The non-slip palm surface maintains handlebar grip security when hands are cold, sweaty inside the glove, or damp from light rain; the adjustable wrist closure (typically a velcro tab) allows the cuff to be tightened over or under a jacket sleeve for a sealed fit that blocks cold air ingress at the wrist; the gloves are machine washable — follow the care label instructions for wash temperature and drying to maintain the fleece lining and windproof outer layer

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right size and is there a hand measurement guide?
The listing provides sizes S through XXL but does not include a specific hand measurement chart in the available data. To measure your hand: use a flexible tape to measure the circumference of your dominant hand at the widest point across the knuckles (excluding thumb), fingers straight and together. As a general cycling glove reference: S fits approximately 17-18cm, M fits 18-19cm, L fits 19-20cm, XL fits 20-21cm, XXL fits 21-22cm. However, these are general ranges only - contact the seller for the actual ROCKBROS size chart for this specific model, as the note in the original product states measurements are done by hand and the seller advises contacting them if unsure. Winter cycling gloves should fit snugly with no loose fabric at the fingertips (loose fabric compresses against the handlebar and causes discomfort) but should not compress the fingers so tightly that circulation is restricted, as reduced blood flow accelerates hand cooling in cold conditions.
How warm are these gloves and down to what temperature are they suitable?
The listing specifies autumn/winter use with a thermal fleece inner lining and windproof outer shell. Precise temperature ratings are not provided in the listing data. Based on the construction (fleece lining, windproof outer, no waterproofing specified), these gloves are suited for approximately 0°C to 12°C (32°F to 54°F) riding conditions at moderate intensity; at higher riding intensities (harder efforts generating more body heat) they may be comfortable down to -5°C (23°F); at lower intensities (slow recovery rides, commuting) the effective lower temperature limit rises. They are not an insulated waterproof winter glove for extreme cold (below -10°C / 14°F). For very cold conditions, bar mitts (pogies) or lobster-claw gloves with additional insulation would be more appropriate. Contact the seller for any available temperature rating specifications.
What is the difference between the 10 style variants and how do I choose?
The 10 variants (S173BGR, S208BK, S210BK, S109-1BR, S109-1BGR, S169-1BGR, S169-1BR, S077-6BK, S091-4BK, S091-2BK) represent different ROCKBROS model families (S077, S091, S109, S169, S173, S208, S210) with different colorways (BGR = blue/green, BK = black, BR = brown/black). The model number suffix indicates the color: BK is black, BGR is blue-green, BR is brown or black combination. Different model numbers within the same family may also have slight construction or feature variations. Select your variant by examining the product images for each variant option — the photo for each code shows the specific glove design and color for that variant. If the listing images do not distinguish clearly between all 10 variants, contact the seller to request photos of your preferred variant before ordering.
Are these gloves waterproof or just water-resistant?
The listing specifies windproof construction but does not claim waterproofing. The outer materials (polyester, microfiber, mountaineering cloth) provide wind resistance and some natural water repellency from the tight weave, but these are not waterproof gloves with a sealed membrane (such as Gore-Tex or similar). In light rain or mist they will resist water ingress for a period, but in sustained or heavy rain the outer fabric will eventually wet through. For riding in wet conditions, a dedicated waterproof cycling glove with a sealed membrane lining is the appropriate choice. These gloves are best suited for cold but dry or lightly damp autumn/winter riding conditions.
How should I wash and care for these gloves to maintain the fleece lining and windproof outer?
The gloves are listed as washable. For best results with the fleece lining and windproof outer construction: machine wash on a gentle/delicate cycle in cool or cold water (30°C max recommended for fleece and polyester blends); use a mild detergent without bleach or fabric softener - fabric softener coats fleece fibers and reduces their thermal performance and loft over time; close the wrist velcro closure before washing to prevent it snagging other items or the glove lining; air dry flat or hang - avoid tumble drying on high heat as this can damage the windproof membrane layer and compress the fleece lining; do not iron. Check the care label on the actual gloves for any model-specific restrictions. With proper washing, the fleece lining should maintain its thermal performance for many wash cycles; the windproof outer may gradually reduce in water repellency over time and can be refreshed with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray treatment after washing if needed.
