ZL-PADDED Bike Glove

Size Guide
The newly updated 2022 ZL PADDED shares the same DNA as it's predecessor: a lightwieght, breathable, pull-on style riding glove that is designed to keep the hands comfortable, cool, and protected while you're in the saddle.
The updated graphics add a little extra pop to your style, while the redsigned thumb and index fingers are built with reliable, conductive panels that allow you to keep the gloves on while checking that work text that just popped in, or route finding while using one of your phone or watch apps. 
The perforated synthetic amara palm includes closed-cell foam padding that adds extra comfort on longer rides as well as a little more protection in the event you decide to introduce yourself to the ground.

      Strange fit

      I have used Truck snow gloves for years and decided to give these bike gloves a try. I ordered a pair in my usual snow size and the the synthetic palm side is cut in a way that does not fit my hand well. The palm itself is fine but the fingers feel about a 1/2 inch too short. I think I would need to go up 2+ sizes to fix this but then there would be a lot of excess material in the palm/wrist area. I don't think the shape of my hand is super weird as I have worn many gloves from Dakine, Pearl Izumi, Giro, etc over the years with no issues. I plan to return these for a different brand and will stick to Truck snow gloves in the future.

      Hey RP!

      Sorry to hear you didnt love the ZL. Maybe don't broad stroke the bike line till you try a second model? I'd be happy to send you one of the leather palmed gloves which are my personal favorites. The ZR/ZRP/Float are all candidates. And they are all NOT the ZL. So there's at least some chance that you'll like them. And then you may not have to confine yourself only to my awesome snow gloves:) Take me up on the offer if you'd like...

      Oh, and i've also refunded you already for the ZLs. No need to send them back. They can live as your backups or a dog toy:)

      Average glove

      If you’re looking to spend top dollar for a pair an entirely average, full-fingered gloves, without a nose wipe area, that are fiddly to put on/get your fingers all the way into & feel like the padding is misplaced/moving around when you’re putting weight on the handlebars, this is the glove for you. Three weeks in, they already feel older than the 4 year old pair they’re replacing - doubt they’ll last a season.

      Hey Pete,
      Sorry these didn't work out for you. Further evidence that not all gloves are perfect for all hands. Plenty of folks including myself that actually like the glove quite a bit. But, your hands are the ones that count. I'm not sure these qualify as 'top dollar' since there are cetainly much more expensive bile gloves out there. But, if not a top quality product experience, I'll do you one better. I have refunded you for the troubles. That's top dollar customer service. And, if you'd like to try a leather palmed bike glove, I'll send you a pair for free. Just reach out should you want to try. Thanks!!!

      Great bike gloves

      Love these gloves. Snug, effectively but not overly-padded, comfortable, cool, and inexpensive. Time will tell how durable they are, but my experience with other Truck gloves leads me to think they'll last a long, long time.

      Almost perfect - unbeatable for Quality and Price

      I get sleepy hands - on every bike - no change in posture/uprightness etc has solved it. So padded gloves it is.
      Slipping into the ZL the leather on the base mounds to the hand (size 9 is my standard size on this model it’s a tight fit - almost too short in the finger) and the padded areas arrange themselves almost perfectly on my palms (a little wider strips there would be great).
      The outer hand stays cool in temperature and by color - yellow being the eye catching natural.
      Ensure that the glove is smooth when drying out and use a care product after to keep the leather soft.

      TRUSTED BY THE BEST

      For five years I have traveled from coast to coast introducing TRUCK to the operational groups at nearly every ski resort from Maine to Washington. The goal was to build a glove that met the varied needs of the patrollers, lifties, snowmakers, and ski instructors who demand a quality product as well as one they can actually afford. And if we could do that, well, then we knew we had something good to offer.

      Today we have a faithful following of resort employees who swear by the quality and costs we offer.
