Common Questions
What size gloves do I need?
Depending on whether you are looking for equestrian, run or bike eGLOVE sports gloves are available from XXXS through to XXL (depending on style). If your measurement falls between two sizes, size down — a snug fit improves touchscreen accuracy. A full size guide is available on the eGLOVE website.
Are eGLOVE equestrian gloves suitable for everyday riding?
Yes — eGLOVE riding gloves are designed for daily use across training, hacking, competing and yard work. They're built to handle repeated use, offering durability, grip and comfort ride after ride without deteriorating quickly.
What are equestrian riding gloves used for?
Riding gloves improve grip on the reins, protect hands from friction and rubbing, and help maintain feel and control in all weather conditions. A well-fitted glove also reduces hand fatigue on longer rides and provides a degree of protection in the event of a fall.
How do I choose the right horse riding gloves?
Look for gloves that fit snugly with no excess material across the palm or fingers. Consider the season — lightweight gloves for summer and schooling, waterproof or thermal gloves for hacking in wet or cold conditions. If you compete, check that your gloves meet any colour or style requirements for your discipline.
Are touchscreen riding gloves useful for equestrians?
Yes — being able to use your phone without removing your gloves is genuinely useful in a yard or outdoor environment. eGLOVE touchscreen-compatible riding gloves let you check messages, use a riding app or take a photo without breaking your routine or leaving gloves on a fence post.
What are the best riding gloves for winter?
For winter riding, look for gloves with thermal lining or fleece backing, combined with a waterproof or water-resistant outer. eGLOVE winter equestrian gloves are designed to keep hands warm and maintain rein feel in cold, wet conditions — avoiding the stiff, inflexible feel that cheaper winter gloves can suffer from.
Do I need waterproof riding gloves?
If you ride year-round in the UK, waterproof gloves are worth having in your kit. Wet reins and cold hands significantly affect grip and feel. A waterproof riding glove maintains dexterity and keeps hands dry in rain and when working around water in the yard.
How do I care for my riding gloves?
Most eGLOVE riding gloves are machine washable on a gentle cool cycle — check the label on your specific pair. Do not tumble dry. For leather gloves, wipe clean with a damp cloth and condition occasionally with a leather treatment to maintain suppleness. Store away from direct heat and sunlight.
Can I use riding gloves for other equestrian activities?
Yes — eGLOVE riding gloves are suitable for lungeing, groundwork, loading, stable duties and general yard use, not just riding. The grip and dexterity they provide makes them a practical choice across all horse-related activities.
What are the best running gloves for cold weather?
For cold weather running, look for a fleece-lined or thermal glove with a close, secure fit that doesn't restrict movement. eGLOVE's Fleece Cold Weather Run Gloves and Polartec Fleece Run Gloves are designed for exactly this — warmth without bulk, with full touchscreen compatibility so you never have to take them off mid-run.
Do touchscreen running gloves actually work?
Yes — all eGLOVE running gloves feature touchscreen-compatible fingertips that work reliably with smartphones. Fit matters too: a snug glove gives better screen accuracy than a loose one, which is why eGLOVE gloves are precisely sized for running. If you're between sizes, size down for the best touchscreen performance.
What's the difference between lightweight and hi-vis running gloves?
Lightweight gloves prioritise breathability and a barely-there feel for mild conditions. Hi-vis and reflective gloves add high-visibility colour and reflective detailing for runners training in low light — early mornings, evenings, or winter conditions where being seen matters as much as staying warm.
Are running gloves worth wearing in spring and autumn?
Yes — hands are one of the first things to feel the cold on a run, even when the rest of you warms up quickly. A lightweight pair weighs almost nothing and makes a noticeable difference in comfort from around 12°C downwards. Most runners find they reach for gloves far more often than they expect to.
What's the difference between running gloves and regular gloves?
Running gloves are cut closer to the hand to prevent bunching and snagging during arm swing. They're made from lighter, more breathable materials than everyday gloves, and are designed to regulate temperature rather than simply insulate. The touchscreen-compatible fingertips also make them practical throughout a run without ever needing to be removed.
How do I wash my running gloves?
All eGLOVE running gloves are machine washable on a gentle cool cycle. Do not tumble dry — lay flat or hang to dry naturally. Avoid fabric softener as it can degrade the touchscreen-compatible coating on the fingertips over time.
Can I wear eGLOVE running gloves for other activities?
Yes — eGLOVE running gloves work well for cycling, walking, commuting and general outdoor use. The touchscreen compatibility makes them practical day-to-day too. Several customers use them for driving as well as running, and the hi-vis range doubles up well for cycling in low light.
What cycling gloves does eGLOVE make?
eGLOVE produces a range of technical cycling gloves covering waterproof gloves for wet weather riding, thermal gloves for cold conditions, and fingerless gloves for warm weather and sportive use. All are designed with the specific grip, fit and dexterity demands of cycling in mind.
Do I need waterproof cycling gloves?
If you ride year-round in the UK, yes. Wet handlebars, cold air and rain significantly reduce grip and hand comfort on longer rides. A waterproof cycling glove keeps hands dry and warm without sacrificing bar feel — making a real difference to both safety and enjoyment on wet days.
What are the best cycling gloves for winter?
Look for a glove with a windproof or waterproof outer layer combined with thermal or fleece lining. The key is warmth without bulk — too thick and you lose feel on the brakes and shifters. eGLOVE winter cycling gloves are designed to balance insulation with the dexterity cyclists need to stay in control.
What's the difference between fingerless and full-finger cycling gloves?
Fingerless gloves are best for warm weather riding — they reduce sweat build-up and keep hands cooler while still providing palm padding and grip. Full-finger gloves offer more protection from cold, wind and rain, and are the better choice for most UK riding conditions outside of summer.
How should cycling gloves fit?
Cycling gloves should fit snugly with no excess material across the palm — bunching leads to pressure points and discomfort on longer rides. Fingers should reach to the end of the glove without feeling cramped. If you're between sizes, try both and opt for the more fitted option for better bar feel and control.
How do I wash cycling gloves?
eGLOVE cycling gloves are machine washable on a gentle cool cycle. Do not tumble dry — hang or lay flat to dry naturally. For waterproof gloves, a cool wash helps maintain the water-resistant coating — avoid high temperatures and fabric softener, both of which can degrade waterproofing over time.
Are touchscreen cycling gloves worth having?
Yes — being able to use a GPS device, cycling computer or smartphone without removing your gloves is genuinely useful, especially on longer rides or sportives. eGLOVE touchscreen-compatible cycling gloves let you interact with your devices without breaking your flow or exposing your hands to the cold.
Can I use running or riding gloves for cycling?
You can, but cycling-specific gloves are worth the investment if you ride regularly. Cycling gloves are cut and padded differently to account for the handlebar grip position, vibration absorption and the specific friction points that come from sustained time on the bike. eGLOVE cycling gloves are designed specifically for this.
