Reise Strada Urban Riding Gloves

Reise position the Strada as the first pair of proper gloves a commuter buys - the step up from riding bare-handed or in whatever fabric gloves came to hand. The protection is real rather than token, and the price reflects an urban glove rather than a track one.

The chassis is faux suede and 3D mesh, so they are light and they breathe, which matters more in Indian city traffic than abrasion figures do. Knuckles get soft TPR moulded protectors, the outer edge of the palm gets EVA padding over the carpus bone, and there are TPR tabs across the finger joints. A silicone panel on the fingers adds grip - noticeably useful in the wet and in stop-go traffic.

If you tour rather than commute, look at the Rhodes full gauntlet instead - goat leather, dual-density TPU, a longer cuff. The Strada is built for the ride to work.

FAQs

Q: Are these waterproof?
No. The Strada is a ventilated urban glove - mesh and faux suede. It will get wet in heavy rain. For all-weather touring look at the Nubra.

Q: Can I use my phone with them on?
Yes. Conductive TapFingertips panels on the index finger and thumb.

Q: Do they need breaking in?
No. Pre-curved fingers and a short cuff mean they are comfortable from the first ride.

Q: How do I pick a size?
Measure around your palm at the widest point, just below the knuckles. If you are between sizes on a mesh glove, size down rather than up - they give a little with use.

Q: Is there a warranty?
Reise do not publish a consumer warranty on gloves. Manufacturing defects are handled case by case - contact us before using the gloves if something is wrong out of the box.

Local Buying Guide

For daily riding in Indian cities the trade-off is always airflow against protection, and a mesh-chassis glove like the Strada sits at the sensible end of that. Full leather is hotter than most commuters will tolerate through summer, and a fabric glove with no knuckle armour is not doing much. Browse the rest of the half gauntlet gloves or step up to full gauntlet gloves.
