A go-to glove to keep in your pocket

New for this season, the Souplesse Gloves are made for cooler days when your hands need to stay under wraps. Low profile and low bulk, these gloves solve the problem of what to wear when warmer weather turns cool.

Using a dual-layer construction, the outer layer uses the same water-resistant and breathable fabric used in our Pro Team Race Cape, whilst the lightweight, textured inner offers insulation and allows for air to flow around the hands.

Created to give maximum support with minimum bulk, the palm construction gives a sensitive grip, whilst still dampening the effects of road noise. Developed by pressure mapping riders’ hands when in contact with the handlebars, the gloves give the greatest support in areas where pressure is highest.

Screen compatible tips offer enough dexterity to allow for use of your devices. Tonal dots and tonal logos are subtle design elements that place the gloves firmly in the Souplesse range. Size up and wear with the Merino Liner for even cooler days.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Andy84 from Very pleased These are perfect if you want thin gloves that allow to do everything without having to take them off. Perfect for iphone and garmin, and changing tyres in the cold. Very rainy or wet days will see you suffer a bit though.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Crina from Love these I wear these every day at the moment, excellent in the current October temperatures to keep my hands warm on the bike, plus I don't have to take them off to use my phone. Super comfy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by AndiW from Love 'em! The gloves look great. My friends tell me that the spots in the back look like sequins from a distance! However these are gloves are deeply practical as well as beautiful. There doesn't seem to be much padding but somehow there is. I used them for a 6 hour ride in showery autumn weather and they were warm enough without over heating. Would definite recommend.

Rated 4 out of 5 by elcarb from Smart and functional These gloves are excellent at low-ish temperatures and work well down to about 3 degrees with merino liners too - but below that I reckon you'll need the winter gloves. Nice long cuffs to keep out drafts. Comfortable and keep you in touch with the bike. I imagine they'll be great as spring/autumn wear.

Rated 4 out of 5 by iPotter from Bright and cheerful! It's too early to tell, as the weather turned very cold after buying them, so I've been using my excellent Rapha winter gloves since then. But they look good, are a snug fit, so hopefully they will perform as well as other Rapha products.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Amanda_32 from Didn't love the fit I found the pinky finger box too wide, and generally, the fingers were a bit long. I often wear Large women's gloves so found these slightly on the bigger side (although still rather slim fit).

Souplesse Gloves Reviews - page 2

There is no length measurement shown for these gloves. Are the finger lengths of these gloves the same as other styles, for similar knuckle measurement, or are they longer or shorter, being women's gloves?

Asked by: gloveseeker

Hi, we do not offer a finger length specific the sizing is similar throughout our gloves and should you need to exchange or refund, we have a 90 days return period for new/unused garments with tags and in saleable condition.

I've measured around my knuckles as the diagram suggests and it comes up as 19cm which is right in the middle of medium and large. Which should I go for?

Asked by: Ab15

Hi, we suggest that if you are a usual size in Medium gloves then please purchase this in your side. Should you need to exchange or refund, we have a 90 days return period for new/unused garments with tags and in saleable condition.
