TFX1 Gore-Tex® Gloves by Five
The TFX1 Gore-Tex® is a trail-adventure glove designed for long journeys and extended rides. Its mixed construction of full-grain goat leather and RipStop fabric combined with the Gore-Tex® Grip™ membrane provides waterproofing and sensitivity to controls. It combines technical protections and a long cut to ensure safety and comfort on the road.
Design and Materials
- Full-grain goat leather palm with digitalised texture for lasting flexibility and grip suited for controls
- Water-repellent and stretchy fabric back for a good balance between comfort and durability during extended rides
- External seams at the fingers to limit friction points and enhance freedom of movement
Waterproofing and Sealing
- Waterproof-breathable GORE-TEX® Grip membrane bonded to the structure and lining at the palm protects against the elements (including heavy rain), ensuring maximum sensitivity to controls.
