a same pair for running, yoga, pilates and pull ups and other core exercises in winter.
what I use now are regular leather gloves. While thin for leather, they’re a bit stiff sometimes. I was wondering if there’s something out there that might be better.
When it’s temperate I don’t use gloves, function is mostly to keep me warm while I train.


I’m no kind of expert, but I love my Bontrager (or other brand) fingerless riding gloves. I originally got them for cycling, but they’re so light and effective that I wear them year-round, pretty much. Unlike cotton (etc), they wick up moisture nicely.

That said, yeah-- when it gets much below 0°F, I’d say ditch the dang’ol riding gloves, lol.
I loved my Bontrager riding gloves; used them for 30 years before they fell apart. They were the fingerless kind; worked great for cycling and pullups/weights; not so good for running/pilates/yoga.
For running, I have some merino wool cutoffs with a leather pad and flip top mittens. Used them for 20 or so years. I usually start wearing them when the temperature gets close to freezing; being able to flip the mitten tops on and off helps a lot with temperature control.
