The Equinox brings Outdry technology. We liked this as a lightweight yet warm and waterproof glove that is well suited to the UK’s cold wet conditions. The trick with Outdry is that it brings a seamless bonded out shell that blocks out water ingress making it a winner for those daily riders who dislike the feeling of a glove that feels wet to the touch on the road home after work.
