Roeckl Villach

The extra-warm Villach series from Roeckl Sports was designed for bike use on really cold winter days and includes the three highly functional cycling gloves: Villach, Villach Trigger, and Villach Lobster. They have the same features but differ in design: the Villach is a conventional finger glove, while the Lobster and Trigger models have combined fingers for even greater thermal performance without compromising the operation of brakes and gears. The Trigger also has a finger guide in the lining for a first-class grip feeling.

The highlight of the Villach models is the brand new PrimaLoft Gold insulation with Cross Core technology featuring aerogels. Aerogels, which come from the aerospace industry, are highly porous structures with very low density, consisting of over 95 percent air. In gloves, this means an extremely good ratio of low volume to low weight and high thermal performance.

Additionally, elastic, breathable Roeck-Grip synthetic suede with ergonomic cut provides a non-slip, highly tactile, and comfortable grip on the handlebar. The Comfort-Innovation feature relieves the sensitive crook of the thumb with seamless padding. On the backhand, windproof Gore-Tex Infinium Windstopper Soft Shell keeps out cold riding wind. An elastic strap secures the Villach to the wrist, and a knitted cuff encloses the sensitive pulse area to retain heat.

A wipe-clean thumb made of soft Gore-Tex Infinium Windstopper Tornado fleece, the touchscreen compatible function, and reflective design elements complete the features.
