my daughter needs some gloves for the ride to school on the tow-bar.
she's got a couple of pairs of mittens but can't grip her grip-shift shifter in them, and presumably doesn't have great grip on the bars either. so i'm after some fingered gloves, for a 6 year old, they don't need to be super warm, but a bit.
got any suggestions?
Our kids had little knitted gloves with rubber "dimples" all over them for grip - think they just came from a normal non-cycling shop.
Otherwise Decathlon should have some - the likes of Altura and Polaris do kids gloves but you may not want to pay that much
decathlon don't go small enough. first place i looked, speshly since i live in france : )
knitted ones, i know the things you mean, but they wouldn't really be warm, or nto for long anyway.
Fox dirtpaw
aldi ones for winter
I have some other ones you can have [ too small now] if you cover the postage but more a summer autumn one than a full all year set but grippy as can be and proper cycling gloves - they were from decathalon iirc but years ago
Second vote for Fox Dirtpaw, TLD also do small sizes, and hot pink which my oldest daughter loves, as does her big brother who now has a pair as well.
Pretty sure our kids have Giro ones, they're pretty good and my daugher is six.
thanks all
Another vote for the Dirtpaws. My son had some when he just turned five, they're great for small hands.
fox, scott, polaris for the winter
Yeah we've got fox and Polaris here as well. Both good and go really small.
Search for kids MX gloves on eBay.
I got some form halfords for our lad when he was younger they were fine for what he was doing and fitted well full finger too!
I got my daughter some Royal racing 'core' kids gloves, they're mini versions of Daddy's so we're nicely coordinated...
Fox Dirtpaw - are the ones on eBay genuine? As cheap as £5.98 posted, where other sites they range from £15-£25
How does the 2xxxxxxs size up?
Decathlon have age 6 gloves in their kipsta/football range. Have gripper palms too.
great, thanks again everyone. i'll follow some of those up
Another vote for Dirtpaw. My kid likes wearing them.
My 7 year old just got these in neon yellow
