Road Gloves
For road riders, cycling 'mitts' are where it's at. Comfortable and cool for long days on the bike, you'll feel the benefit post ride, and if you do decide to opt for a little tarmac skating then your hands will still function afterwards.
Off Road / City Riding
You won't see many riders in these genres wearing fingerless gloves. Off road, the need for full finger protection is even higher, but as important is the ability to slow the bike down, and full finger gloves facilitate greater bike control. City riders also benefit from a full finger glove, but the reasons for using them are different. Gloves from Sombrio, like the Forensic model are often cuffless and highly breathable, which means increased levels of comfort, but not of the expense of breathability.
