Duraglove Wool Charcoal

There are few pieces of gear available today more perfect than the wool Duraglove. I bought my first pair almost ten years ago and they still look and perform to my expectations after being put through the absolute ringer. Not only have they stood the test of soul-crushing adventure races, epic mountain bike crashes, multi-day offshore sailing races, blackfly-infested whitewater canoe trips, rain-soaked backpacking, frigid ice climbs, and even the top of Mount Washington in the dead of winter (do wear a shell over them if you try that), they're also great for shovelling the driveway and walking the dog around the block on cold nights. I really couldn't be happier or more satisfied with this glove!!!

Like most cyclists, I have an abundance of gloves. These are my favorite for several reasons. I live in Seattle, where it's commonly mid 40's and rainy. On my >10 mile commute, I can just wear these and be comfy since the wool insulates when wet. if I'm out on a 2-4 hour ride, I can throw a wool liner underneath and be fine the whole ride. Second, anyone who's ridden with a "waterproof" glove over a few days know they develop a funk. A leave it in the garage next to an air freshener type funk. This funk usually transfers to your hands, and leaves your roommate/partner trying to leave you like a Contador leaves a Schleck. Wool doesn't stink, and neither will you. Lastly, you could spend upwards of $50 on some fancy gloves, do yourself a favor and get 2 pair of these. Ideal usage: 40-60 degrees, wet or dry.
