Swiss brand Hirzl has been doing things the 5-finger way for years, choosing to focus on their core glove strength and passion instead of breaking out into different apparel areas.

Rocking Kangaroo leather palms finished with an elaborate tanning process, the Hirzl Grippp Gloves are designed with one thing in mind - Grip. Ok, maybe two things, because in use the Hirzl gloves not only give superior cockpit control in all conditions, but supreme comfort to boot.

HIRZL created and developed their proprietary GRIPPP™ technology to help achieve unparalleled levels of grip and control on the bike in all conditions. Hirzl state that their GRIPPP™ technology delivers up to 3 times more grip in dry conditions and up to 5 times more in wet or severe weather conditions than any other cycling glove, but in addition,  also provide high levels of water repellency, wear resistance and sweat absorption.

"The funny thing is, it's not marketing nonsense. These are remarkably grippy whether your handlebar is dry or wet. The palms are leather- kangaroo leather, to be precise - and they're very supple. Hirzl reckon they put the leather through 'an elaborate tanning process' and give it a 'special treatment'. They're short on details - that stuff is given out on a 'need to know' basis, apparently - but they say their technology gives the gloves up to three times more grip in dry conditions, and up to five times more when it's wet.

Now, I'm not going to be drawn on a figure - we don't have a gripometer here at road.cc - but these gloves don't slip. Soak the palms and drench your bar tape or grips and they stay put. In terms of grippiness, they deliver. Hirzl actually developed their technology for golf. I don't know a lot about golf, admittedly, but I guess it would be bad news all round if your bat slipped out of your hands mid-swing."

Verdict: Supple and very grippy gloves, well made with slimline padding - 8/10
