In this day of so many clothing manufacturers, it’s difficult to make an MTB glove that is a little different, especially one that will stand out in the crowd! Making a move over from the snow sports world, Amplifi have bought a few distinctive ideas into the arena of MTB, including their gloves. With their bold and brash logo (in green only) down the top of the glove, they certainly make a statement, and we have been putting a pair through their paces for several months now in the UK. These gloves,made out of slightly thicker fabric than your average modern trail glove, are comfortable and standing up to abuse well. They weigh in at 81g, and unlike many popular paper-thin gloves today, they are still in fantastic condition after about three months and fifteen rides.
