The Deep Winter Gloves are made from innovative technical fabrics and constructed for excellent protection without compromising control. The outer shell uses a windproof, stretch nylon with a Durable Water Repellent treatment, which is then filled with Primaloft(R) insulation. A waterproof and breathable OutDry(R) membrane is then bonded to the shape of the shell to give an excellent fit (as opposed to the 'floating' liners used in many gloves) and finished with an insulating tricot lining against the skin. The inside of the palm features a different Primaloft(R) insulation, originally created for snowsports and treated with a resin so it won't slip against your skin when gripping the bars. Rapha's trademark military-grade padding also features in key wear areas. The palm has a synthetic suede outer face, providing abrasion resistance. Elasticated cuffs with a velcro closure are designed to fit snugly around a jacket sleeve. The gloves also feature reflective stripes and logos, as well as soft wipes on both thumbs.
