A youth sized version of a staff favourite!
With a comfortable construction and good ventilation, these are some of the most comfortable gloves we have used. They offer fantastic grip and make an excellent all-mountain glove, but do not offer the same level of padding or protection found in DH gloves. The TLD Air is a glove for those that don't need a lot of features, they just want something that feels great and will provide many seasons of faithful service.
2020 has seen the first design change in many years with a slight change in the cuff closure, a new micro-mesh material to increase the ventilation and sonic welded TPRS protection on the first two fingers to help ward off overhanging objects on the trail. These are still the Air gloves that we know and love, they've just been given a small face-lift to usher them into the new decade.
Who's this item for: The beauty of the TLD air gloves is that they are suitable for virtually all types of riding, whether it be XC, Trail, Enduro, or even DH for those that prefer the feel of a single layer palm.
Palm Style: Single layer of synthetic leather with light, laser mapped perforations.
Materials: A super mix of all the best materials - 45% Synthetic Leather, 38% Polyester, 9% Polyamide, 5% PVC, 3% Elastane. The braking fingers have silicone grippers too.
Additional Protection: Only the 2020 models have seen the introduction of some small sonic welded TPRS pads on the first two fingers on each hand.
Closure or Slip-on: Velcro closure around the wrist so you can get the fit spot on.
Touch Screen Compatible: No
Sweat Wipe Included: No specific sweat wipe but the thumb still works well enough.
Note - with the different year models (apart from 2020), there is only very very minor changes to the actual product. The core elements of the glove have remained the same throughout, it's more just colourways and when they were released that dictate the different year models.
