Itâs hard not to like the subtle styling of EVOCâs feature packed Enduro Touch gloves. The thin, well-shaped palm doesnât bunch when gripping the bar and has padding at the base of the thumb and heel of the hand that â surprisingly â goes unnoticed while riding.
Something that is noticeable initially is the neoprene cuff and chunky Velcro closure. It doesnât take long to get used to but a pared down version would do just as good a job without feeling quite so apparent. The âTouchâ element is the touchscreen compatible material used on the index fingertip. It works on the devices weâve tried but makes the end of the finger noticeably tighter.
Breathability isnât an issue thanks to the slightly stretchy, well-fitted mesh backing, and the snot wipe on the thumb comes into its own on colder rides.
