REVIEW: Ironclad cold conditions digital camo
This is just my initial thoughts after having them delivered, I'll post a full review after riding with them and playing a few games.
Features:
wind & water repellent
high abrasion resistance
micro fleece insulation
popper thing on the wrist collar to connect them together
pull tab to help get them on
First thoughts:
The gloves fit pretty snugly, maybe I should have sized up or maybe they are just a bit stiff at the moment. They feel well made and pretty damn tough, I think they should be able to survive a good few spills on to tarmac. Holding handlebars is a bit of a strain at the moment due to the stiffness, I'm hoping that they will soften up a bit and become more flexible but I'm pretty sure this will happen as they are designed for using when operating tools. The fingers have rubbery 'high grip' sections and the palms are 'medium grip' and slightly padded, I bought these for general winter riding and polo use and I think they should perform well in both situations, at the moment I'd say they were £26 well spent.
