Description

Designed for a stylish retro look with modern comfort, we have refreshed the Altura Crochet Unisex Cycling Mitts by refining the crochet back hand. It may look like something you would have seen in the early sixties but do not let looks deceive you, though as these mitts are made from modern day performance fabrics and strategically placed cushioning pads for all day rider comfort.

Extra large is not nearly large enough , one has to kind of peel them off rather than easily take them off.2XL please

Absolutely pish! No padding at all

Absolutely pish! No padding at all. Worse than nothing because they leave you with a dodgy tan. Just rubbish

Excellent gloves made to a good standard and sold at a very reasonable price.

Unfortunately while i'm 5'10" with normal size hands the 'medium' pair delivered are too small and need to be changed for 'Large'. Please explain your return process and how i should place a new order - Many thanks john

Great looking gloves

Seemed bit small for XL and padding on hand grip not as comprehensive as my old specialised ones but look the business .

To small

I took the biggest size available, but they still are very tight. I can’t remember that my old ones were as tight as these, but I hope they will stretch

Retro Cycle mitts maybe but still do the business.

Well made mitts that fit perfectly. Idea summer wear for ventilation but good for winter two with a thin glove underneath

Great mitt :-)

Great to ride in :-) Well used, comfortable mitts, easy to wash. Last about two seasons with almost daily use, then just buy another pair!

Retro mitts

Love these mitts - probably had about 5 pairs over the last 10 years. Perfect for all riding except winter days.

Love these retro style mitts. My third pair. Wonder why this style ever became 'retro', they seem so right.

Uncomfortable for long rides

Decent fit but found that they dig into the spaces between your fingers after a while,, they may soften up after washing but you need better comfort for long rides. So I do not think I will wear them again.

Great gloves

Love these gloves and have used them for years as they look good, are cool in the heat and are very comfortable, BUT they do not stand up to daily wear; I went through two pairs last summer. The palm is made from a synthetic material , not leather, and is not up to sustained wear unfortunately.

altura mitts

A great pair of mitts. people over a certain age will remember this look. Just what i wanted comfortable and allows air to circulate. Just wish there were more colour options

Comfy as ever

Kinda retro string back driving glove look with imitation suede palms. The leather originals are more protective but the leather gets hard and inflexible, whereas these stay soft and comfortable. They stay in shape and do not ride up the fingers on long rides Padded area covers the whole palm area so good for changing hand positions on the bars
