C3 Gore-tex Infinium Stretch Mid Gloves
The C3 Gore-tex Infinium Gloves fit into Gore Wear’s line as a versatility option for cool-weather use due to their Gore-tex construction which combats the elements without sacrificing breathability. Reflective patterning across the outer directs the gloves towards cyclists and runners, but their slim construction and ergonomic design make them perfect for hiking and cross-country skiing as well.
Foam padding is integrated in the glove’s palm to provide relief for extended periods of time spent gripping handlebars, whether on your morning commute or an arduous cool-weather outing. Stretchy outer materials and fleece insulated inner lining supply additional comfort and durability for heavy usage on and off the bike.
- Cold-weather glove fends off winter’s chill and conforms to multiple disciplines
- Gore-tex outer is windproof and water-resistant yet remains breathable
- Slip-on cuff closure fits close to the skin to ensure the glove stays in place
- Touch-screen compatible finger-tips ensure you never miss a beat

They are snug fitting. Palm side has a stretchy fabric that ensures a tight fit. I have small hands so got the small. Perfect finger length but VERY snug around the base of my fingers, almost uncomfortably so. I have been using these for a month or so this winter in NC. Seems to keep my hands fairly dry, but not warm enough for temps approaching freezing. My pinky finger nearly froze on my 15min ride this morning around 30F. Best used for shoulder season temps above 40F

They are tight, but stretchy and warm. I wear them on rides around 10-degrees Celsius. The smartphone touch pad works great on my iPhone. Sometimes, too warm as my hands sweat on cold days.

While I cannot comment on the other reviews as to durability as I've only worn these on three rides, I will say that mine are still in one piece. Further, they have done a great job keeping my fingers toasty on rides down to 43 F with 12 mph winds. They were good in slightly warmer temps without overheating. The stretch is great - no sagging and no tight spots. They fit my hands like, well, like a glove. They felt the tiniest bit snug across my knuckles when I first put them on but I don't notice after two miles. There is fleece on the tops of the fingers where the wind hits one's hands. The "underside" of the hand is thin for good bar feel. I had plenty of grip on my bars and the fingertips worked well on my phone. There is gel padding but it is not that thick and does not cover the whole of the palm. To me it's perfect.

Not bad thickness, but also not durable

These are not bad as a compromise between warmth and thickness. However, don't expect that the promised touchscreen compatible fingertips work. The ones on my gloves fell apart within a few months.

Poor bar grip, not durable

Grip on bars is poor. There is insufficient silicone/gripper material on palm and fingers. Second, durability is bad. I have a 1 cm seam splitting open after only 12-15 hours of road riding time. Not recommended. It's 2019, and I am surprised something as simple as a cycling glove could be so carelessly designed.
