Ironman Cycling gloves

   This quarter's product testing involves a very cool line of cycling gloves by Ironman .  They have been on the market for awhile but this year they have made a  police specific glove, long and short finger. The long finger has special features such as a tapered index finger for firearm reasons. Both have a patented design to help reduce hand numbness. Every cyclist knows that dreaded feeling when their hands go numb. But with the SHOCK-TEK™ patented groove in the palm padding, the  gloves protect the median nerve in your hands like no other glove can. So you can feel unparalleled comfort (not to mention your hands) for your whole ride.

 I found the quality of the gloves to be very good, using them daily for about 2 months. They are strictly a cycling glove and should not be used for weight lifting. Overall LEBA gave the glove an "A".  

There is special pricing on the gloves for Police which is 50 % off of retail. For more information on the gloves contact Bill Paine at:
