Product Insights & Style Tips
Riders who chase rougher roads will love the mood of the GOREWEAR C5 Short Glove: lean, technical, and built for grip. The face fabric is soft and flexible, 82% nylon with 18% elastane, while the palm uses 60% nylon and 40% polyurethane for traction where it matters. A GEL and foam padded palm cushions shocks and helps prevent blisters, smoothing out chatter on gravel and potholes. Lightweight and breathable, it stays comfortable under bar tape or a light sleeve.
Closure is a hook-and-loop strap that keeps the fit secure without bulk. The fabric flex supports natural hand movement so you can grip, brake, and shift with ease. Padding lives where it protects most, absorbing bumps and keeping palms comfy over long rides. It layers neatly under a light shell in changing weather and dries quickly after a drizzle, making it a steady companion from cross-country routes to road sessions and triathlon workouts.
GOREWEAR's ethos is performance with everyday wearability, and the C5 Short Glove embodies that balance. A lean, low-profile partner for gravel, road, and triathlon, it pairs with streamlined kits to keep your grip secure and your hands comfortable mile after mile.
