Hirzl launches its first bike glove

Inspired by the success of its first model - a golf glove - the young Swiss company Hirzl is presenting two new glove models at this year's Eurobike. While the "Grippp Tour FF" is intended as a long-fingered model for mountain bike use, the short "Grippp Tour SF" is more suitable for road cyclists.

Under the motto "We belive in Glove", the St. Gallen-based company develops gloves that meet high sporting demands. Thanks to Grippp technology, Hirz gloves are said to offer up to three times more grip in dry weather and up to five times more grip in wet conditions compared to competitor models. The solution to the riddle is kangaroo leather. This is processed using an elaborate tanning process and stitched to the palms. In addition to the good grip, it remains soft and retains its shape. The air-permeable backhand membrane also ensures an optimum climate and quickly transports perspiration to the outside. There is also a terrycloth insert on the thumb and light gel padding. According to Hirzel, this mix of materials ensures a long service life and excellent wearing comfort. The range is to be expanded even further in the future. In addition to the expansion of the golf and cycling glove range, equestrian sports are also envisaged.
