Rainbow Trout

The padding on the palms has been great for reducing impact and vibration. They look nice riding or even just going out on a cold day. The fingers on both hands are all uniform and even. They fit well but are a little snug when putting them on. The only issue has been the stitching on one of the cuffs coming loose after only only a few wears, most-likely due to that snugness when putting them on. Everything else is holding up well in the short term.

I tested these outside today in the 7C pouring PNW rain. My hands were toasty and dry. The longer tab on the inner wrist makes getting the gloves on and off easier. In terms of fit, I wear a small in other brands and XS in Handup. I find these fit similar to the Colder gloves with a bit more length in the fingers.

Iv skied in these gloves multiple days . The new cuff provides better coverage than previous versions. It also makes it easy to pull them on. The new palms still provide great grip and protection like previous years. The new print , wow, it catches so many eyes you will be bombarded by compliments all day so be prepared ! I think the temperate rating is accurate. I would actually say it could be used in a little cooler weather if the suns out. These make for a great fair weather ski glove , uphill skinning or general cold weather work glove.

Like the glove, but mine near immediately wet out on me in some mild rain. Then, my hands were cold... and wet... and cold. :( Bummer...

Fit is not good. Tight fingers and loose palm. Will work fine for “oh ****” gloves that hopefully don’t need to get used much.

Great gloves. Haven't ridden in the winter yet, but they're well made. I'm between M and L sizes, so went with M. Fit a bit tight at first, but stretched easily. Vibrant colors and awesome style.. Shred!

Had to change my gloves mid ride as these were super toasty. Will be perfect. Originally ordered a large but returned those for the mediums. The fingers are still a bit long but on the bike they worked perfect. a little tight to get on and off but better than having limp finger syndrome.

Sweet new model in the Handup lineup

Fit great, nice and warm

Handup always comes through. A hometown favorite. These gloves are so toasty! Love em!

Love all my Handhp gloves. So comfortable and these keep my hands warm. I’ll never buy a different brand.

I'm so disappointed in these gloves, but I cut the tags so I can't return them (and they make you pay to return items anyways, another ding). Prefacing this review with a promise that I don't have weirdly sized hands and any other glove I've bought for any purpose has fit me fine. I thought that paying extra for purpose built mtb gloves would ensure that I got a pair of thoughtfully designed quality items but instead:

- they have an exposed seam right where the highest friction point between your hand and handlebar are that's going to wear out - I can already see rubbing on the thread after one ride and just lightly wearing them around

- the interior palm design is a crappy pleather that's going to wear out

- the glove is weirdly short - the actual warm part stops before my palm ends and instead it's just that cheap semi-elastic cuff

- speaking of that cuff, weird choice as well. there's no cinch so cold air just drifts in through it + it's not very tight so it's just weird loose fabric

- low quality triple seam at each finger tip. This means there is a ton of inaccessible extra length at the fingers with just bunches of stitching preventing you from putting them all the way on (compare to like a pair of OR or work gloves where they use a higher quality stitch and only double, your finger can get all the way to the end)

- the thumb is too short. This exacerbates the weird finger issue in that if I pull the gloves on tight at the thumb, it stops me from pulling them tighter on the finger

- they're not warm enough. I wore them for running in the rated temperature and they just don't cut it for me, especially with how thick the gloves are and how much mobility you have to give up

The best thing I can say about these is that the graphic is indeed cool. And all of those issues above don't make them completely unwearable, but nowhere near worth the price. Feels like they don't have an in house designer and just sent graphics to some crappy factory with no understanding of what actually makes a good glove.

I'm really happy with the new colorful gloves. They are great for the fall!

These gloves are perfect!! I bought them for winter use on the bike, hiking and uphill ski laps (skimo). They work great! I have only used them skiing so far, and my hands stay warm in the 20’s and 30’s. If you are generating heat (hiking uphill) they can keep your hands warm in the teens. While warm on the uphill, they keep the warmth on the downhill. Material in the palm/grip area is tough and hasn’t shown any wear with regular hiking pole use or from carrying sharp skis. Dexterity is great. I adjust ski boots, remove and install ski skins, and change bindings without taking off the gloves. I have washed them once and no shrinking or degradation to palm. Not many products impress me, but these gloves have been outstanding.

Nicely made product. Warm.

These look great and perform as well. Fairly comfortable too. Used them in about 25-30 degree weather and was warm. They can definitely handle lower temps.

I’ve been very pleased with these gloves so far. For me, the sweet spot is in the range of 30° to 40°.

Not sure what's going on with Handup recently. Between my girlfriend and I we own about 8 pair of their gloves. The 2 pair I bought over Christmas 2024, including these, were noticeably sloppier fit. Had to return this pair because they were so oversized my girlfriend couldn't even wear them. And she already has a pair of this model in an older colorway--exact same size--that fit her hands perfectly. Now she can't size down because the next size down is sold out. And I have to go through the hassle of returning them.

Warm at 35 degrees and comfortable, with the dexterity needed for riding.

My wife and I have been wearing HandUps for years now, she a size Medium and me a Large. Bought this glove for her for Christmas in the usual size M but found it way small. Had to exchange for a size L. Thankfully HandUp makes the process relatively quick and easy.

Gotten a couple rides in already and really pleased. Kept my hands very warm in a ride that was dipping into 30s. Really warm for how lightweight they are. Have already recommended to several friends

Great gloves for colder weather

Great gloves , warm without bulk ! Grip well. My new favorite !

Excellent gloves for temps down 25 degrees.

I wore these for riding and dog walking in 30 to 40 degree weather. They kept my hands warm and dry. They also do a good job at knocking down the wind.

these gloves are not very good for riding in cold temperatures when at speed. They do a poor job of cutting the wind and the backside of my hands and fingers were frozen within 45 minutes of riding.

I have all of the cold weather gloves, cold weather, colder weather, and colder plus. Honestly I don't notice much difference in heat retention across any of these. I wouldn't recommend buying a colder weather or colder plus if you already have the cold weather gloves.

Great glove for cycling and winter mountaineering

Gave these a full test at our last cyclocross race that had full on cold and rainy weather. Was hoping these gloves would be perfect but sadly they failed us! We had 2 people wearing these gloves and both had the same results. Fingers/thumbs got wet/damp on the inside! Wrists are super tight, great to keep rain out, but hard to get on and off, the extra large pull tag is nice as it's needed to yank the gloves on the hands! We found the gloves ran a size larger than normal too. The mediums on me were huge and that's what I normally wear! The touch screen parts did not work very well either but might have been due to the extra large size. They did keep our hands/fingers toasty warm except for the wet parts which is why they did get 2 stars! Was hoping to get a smaller size to try them out again but they're sold out.
