Ranger Fire Mountain Bike Glove

These gloves work on a touchscreen ONLY if you press hard on the screen, which means:1) On the iPhone, the pressure on the screen is a gesture that is recognized by the iPhone as a modifier. So if you try to press hard on an app icon on the home screen to open it, the iPhone will instead pop the context menu of the app, which has all options except the option to launch the app. This means you have to take off the glove to open any app. In addition, pressure-swiping-up from the bottom to switch between apps doesn't work most of the time, and will wear off the tip off the thumb because you're rubbing against the bottom edge of screen.2) If you're mounting the phone on a cradle, you have to support the back of the phone with the rest of your fingers as you're pressure-touching the screen with the thumb. If you only use your thumb or index fingers with supporting the back of the phone, the phone will move around unless it's a super sturdy cradle.3) The silicon gripper stripes at the back of the fingers will snag into the glass of the screen (especially with the added pressure), making it hard to swipe.In addition to the lack of usable touchscreen functionality, the gloves have a pull loop stitched to its base to make it easier to hook your finger around it to pull off the glove. Unfortunately it has intrusive stitching in the inside that rubs and irritates your wrist at the veins area (proximal wrist crease).

I bought these gloves 3 months ago and only use them for backup gloves in cold weather which has been only a few times since then summer here in Oregon. This is the last pair of foxgloves I will buy I also have another pair of dirtpaw gloves that lasted only one year and fox refuses to stand by their products.These particular gloves are very hard to put on as well and the biggest downfall for me was they are not touch sensitive to phones like advertised, they are absolutely horrible I have to take them off all the time to touch my screen when navigating trails. I wouldn't recommend I'm going to try a different brand gloves.

Make sure your hands and gloves are warm before you start your ride. They will keep you warm but they wont warm up cold hands in the wind. You must also keep your core warm. If your core temp drops your body will pull blood from the extremities to keep vital organs warm.

Just for reference, I am a petite woman with average sized hands that are maybe a little beefier than most (climbing, lifting, mountain biking, horseback riding). I have worn Fox Racing gloves for years, and always wear a men’s small. The women’s medium is almost big enough (some of my fingers are too long), and the large is way too big.That said, my initial thoughts after trying these on right out of the box: They fit snugly and comfortably, especially compared to several other brands that make Fall/Winter biking gloves (Dakine, Troy Lee, Specialized, Giro). I’ll note that I do have a pair of Dakine gloves for summer that fit perfectly, but the fingers and thumb are way too long with the winter glove they offer. It’s too wet to ride right now, but I did wear them on a chilly and windy walk with my dogs this morning, and my hands stayed relatively warm (and I have terrible circulation in my hands). The pull tab is nice as the cuffs are pretty tight (just be careful working them on, as I see the potential for the tab to eventually tear with long term ise), but once on, the fit is near perfect. My biggest beef is they are supposed to be touch screen compatible (which is huge when you are riding in the cold and trying to start and stop Strava, send a quick text, or call someone. I can see the glove being difficult to put back on when it’s cold and your hands are toasty from riding since the fit is so snug), and they don’t appear to work with IPhones; I’ve tried them on three different generations. All of my touch screen compatible Fox gloves have had no issue with this, but these do? I have seen a few other complaints in reviews since I discovered this, but I am not entirely sure this is absolute. I’ll have to contact Fox.

Warm! Hard to get in and off, but once in they are comfortable. I wore these on a 2.5hr ride, high temperature was -2 Celsius, toasty warm even hot hands!

Most cold weather gloves are bulky so I figured biking gloves would be thin and wind resistant. They are very thin and fit well. I can easily operate my fishing equipment with them on. As long as the temperature is above 30 they are great. My fingers got cold fast with a breeze and the temperature in the 20s, surprised me since a biker travels fast. Would be nice to have one finger that was smart phone friendly. Have to take the glove off to operate the phone.

They are a bit warmer than another pair I have and good finger traction on brakes and shifters. But despite their claim to let you use your smart phone while wearing gloves that is not true.

Check size, thought I ordered large but apparently ordered medium on accident and they’re WAY too small. Aside from that they seem like great gloves. Wish I had got the right size

Good gloves a bit warm though so maybe not recommended for summer and spring use. Otherwise great.

These gloves are very tight (even if I ordered my 2XL size) but still comfy because the seams are really well placed. I highly recommend them if you are looking for warm comfy tight gloves for the semi-cold fall season (say, around 32 to 40°F).

únicamente hay que considerar son guantes para clima frío o lluvioso; no son delgados como los modelos para climas normales pero aún así son cómodos. posiblemente el único inconveniente es que en ocasiones es difícil usar una pantalla touch más no imposible.

Handschuhe sind gut aber nicht für für Temperaturen unter 5 grad geeignet, dazu sind sie leider zu dünn.Sonst aber echt top

Not as warm as I thought, and although it works well with the wind and you can notice the quality, the touch-fingertips work horribly
