FAQs

Absolutely. Once your hands get cold, grip, comfort and session time all drop quickly. The right glove thickness can make a huge difference to how enjoyable cold-water sessions feel.

2mm is better for milder conditions and riders who hate bulky gloves. 3mm is the best all-round middle ground for a lot of UK use. 5mm is for proper winter warmth when numb hands are the main problem.
