‘Muc Off’s D30 Rider gloves are for riders who put a premium on knuckle protection, arguably at the expense of ventilation. Whilst they aren’t quite winter gloves, they feature a 2-layer stretch softshell fabric with an abrasion-resistant outer layer, making them more suitable for those cooler mornings on the trails or your commute into work. A silicone gripper print on the palm plus a soft micro-fiber nose wipe on the thumb are nice bits of finishing.
The extended neoprene cuff which runs up the wrist slightly makes for an ergonomic fit. This works in tandem with the gloves polyester inner and integrated knuckle protector making for a cosy fit that also provides protection against the elements and a stack. The D30 knuckle protector is unrestrictive, staying soft and flexible (incognito mode if you will) as you ride the non-newtonian material stiffens on impact — because no one wants a busted knuckle.
The touch-screen-compatible fingertips are a great asset so you can whip out your phone and snap those actions photos or videos with no delay in trying to rip a glove off!
