Description

The Northwave ACTIVE MAX gloves for men have established themselves as a must-have novelty for cyclists looking for the perfect balance between protection and riding sensations.

Designed for outings in hot weather, these mittens use lightweight, breathable materials that promote rapid moisture wicking while effectively protecting the palm from repeated rubbing against the hanger.

The palm of this model is a technical showpiece, made from AX suede, a material renowned for its high abrasion resistance and flexibility. To maximise comfort on rough roads or gravel tracks, Northwave has incorporated foam inserts (foam pads) strategically positioned to absorb vibrations and prevent numbness. This structure is complemented by silicone prints that guarantee a non-slip grip, even when hands are wet.

Ergonomics have not been overlooked, with particular attention paid to the practical details that make all the difference when you’re out and about. The thumb has a microfibre zone for wiping away perspiration with a simple gesture, while the wrist finish uses a ‘zig-zag’ seam for a snug fit without creating pressure points.
