Meet the pinnacle of our winter touring gloves collection: the Taurus 2 GTX. For the diehard rider who demands the best waterproofing, insulation, protection, and features so they can keep adventuring even in the harshest of conditions. Since we’ve included “GTX” nomenclature, that means these gloves have GORE-TEX grip included. Using the semi-bonded construction, which not only means strong waterproofing but also less bulk and more tactility at the hands, hands stay dry and comfortable. The double-cuff closure is also another functional and smart solution to really keep the water from entering the Taurus 2 GTX gloves when the rain is hitting hard. Furthermore, the push-pull tri-fleece liner helps move sweat away from the hands when actively riding, because we know that you can still sweat in the cold, especially if you’re navigating technical terrain. The inclusion of 200 grams of PrimaLoft® Gold at the back of the hand and PrimaLoft® Gold Eco with Grip control 60 grams at the palm are a cold-fighting duo that are ready for their next challenge. Being able to offer top-of-the-line insulation without adding bulk is kind of an art in itself. But it’s a challenge we’ve taken on over the years, and it only continues to get better. Next-level functionality With stretch panels at the pointer and middle finger, as well as the back of the band, dexterity levels up. Not to mention the TPR protection at the index, middle, and little finger, TPU palm slider, SEESOFT at the thumb, ample laminated reflection to help make you seen, and rain eyelets at the cuff, the functional features go on and on. You’ll also find a visor wiper both at the pointer and the thumb to rid your visor of water build-up along the way. And since we take things to the next level, we then wrap it all up by mixing both leather and textile together along with various textures to make the Taurus 2 GTX gloves both functional and visually appealing.
