Rukka Have pulled out all the stops with the Apollo glove. The chosen glove for a few of the staff here at bikestop as they offer the most versatility ! Rukka has used the Gore-tex Xtra-Fit membrane in the gloves which means that you will get the dexterity of the summer gloves you already wear but you will stay as dry as any winter glove out there. The lining is basically a Pro shell lining that is in the jackets but has just been re-designed for gloves. The gloves even have a 'Wiper' on the thumb so you can wipe your visor clear. They do not use a thermal lining inside the glove because as that is what give the majority of the bulk but accompany the glove with a thermal inner glove and your onto a winning combination. Although we have yet to find a period where we need the thermal inner gloves ! If you were to have the Black/White colour option then realistically you may find you wont need another pair of gloves as they will reflect more of the heat so you can start from rainy Ol' England and head to South of spain and only need the one pair.
