Starting with a soft shell, water-resistant and breathable laminate, we add 100g Primaloft® for insulation from the cold. The Element gloves are the lightest Primaloft-insulated gloves we make, so you get excellent flexibility and handlebar feel—but with this lobster-style design, you're fingers keep each other warm, ensuring both dexterity and comfort. The Ax Suede palm, meanwhile, provides a sure grip, even when wet, in order to keep your hands where they need to be—in control. Lastly, the rib-knit cuff is the most accommodating cuff closure we make, and it's designed to go seamlessly under a jacket cuff.
