AmFIB® Lite Gloves
AmFIB® Lite Gloves
Find my size
The AmFIB® Lite Gloves deliver the rare combination of insulation and sensitivity, making them ideal for high-intensity rides in cool, shifting conditions. These cold weather cycling gloves are built for those brisk shoulder-season rides where full winter gear is too much, but bare hands aren't an option.
Insulated with 60g PrimaLoft® Gold with Cross Core™ technology, the glove's back panel traps warmth with minimal bulk, thanks to embedded aerogel particles that provide strong thermal efficiency. To preserve bar feel and control, the AX® Suede Laredo synthetic leather palm is left uninsulated, keeping the glove responsive where it counts. The AmFIB® softshell upper blocks wind and light rain, while the slip-on elastic cuff makes for easy, low-profile layering.
Additional features include touchscreen compatibility on the thumb and index finger, a microfiber nose wipe, and BioViz™ reflective elements visible up to 100 meters for enhanced low-light visibility. Designed for 40 to 60°F conditions, this is our most sensitive insulated glove for transitional seasons.
Pair with a softshell cycling jacket or build your cold riding kit with cold weather cycling gear for added warmth in colder temps.

USE SIMPLE DETERGENTS WITH NO ADDITIVES Never use detergents with fabric softeners, perfumes or any additive type product. The general rule of thumb is the simpler the better. Many detergents with additives leave "surfactants" behind on a fabric's fibers that inhibit the technical performance. Typically the best detergents to use will have "Clear" or "Free" in their names. Don't pour the detergent directly onto the clothing, put it in the washer first, when you start the water. If something is not functionally working, but is not dirty, try rinsing it twice in warm to hot water. This will help get rid of the harmful surfactants. READ THE CONTENT CARE LABEL: On the inside of your garment, or on the hangcard, there are instructions for the care of that individual piece. On garments this will be on a side seam or back seam label. Follow those directions. On finer fabrics, use a "Gentle" cycle. Close all zippers, attach "hook and loop" closures on gloves YOU CAN USE THE DRYER, CAREFULLY: If you use a dryer be sure to use a lower / warm heat setting (Do NOT use a commercial dryer or a "Hot" setting). This will often restore the fabric and help the water and wind repellent qualities. If in doubt, hang the clothing to dry.

40 to 60°F, the shoulder-season range where full winter gloves are too much. For colder rides, the AmFIB® Lobster Gel Gloves add much more insulation. - Will I still have bar feel?
Yes. It's our most sensitive insulated glove. The AX® Suede Laredo palm is left uninsulated, so it stays responsive on the bars and levers. - How warm are they?

Reviews
"Great true to size fit. Quality materails. Warmth is adequate."
Too long for women's hands
"These seem like great gloves, and Pearl Izumi customer service recommended them for my specific needs. Unfortunately, they do not come in women's specific sizing, and the fingers are way too long to be useful. The palm size is true to size, but the fingers are too long."
Not my fave
"These gloves aren’t very comfortable and not very warm. I’d go for something else. I rode a night lap in the desert with these and my hands were freezing. They also aren’t the easiest to put on. A little surprising because most Pearl Izumi products are great."
Great Quality Light Cycling Gloves
"Warm enough for 45-55F, anything below will be chilly especially with strong winds. Worked well with touchscreen. Fit wise, felt I could have gone a one size up from what I measured."
"Well made and fits to size. Definitely a cool weather and not cold weather glove. Nice that it has leather at the palm and knuckles to resist abrasion."
yes!
"comfy and sturdy! solid shoulder season gloves"
Nice glove
"Not as warm as I expected but a nicely made glove."
Toasty gloves
"Bought these as a replacement for an old pair of peralizumis. These kept my fingers warm, and only later did I find out that wind chills were in the mid-20s."
Great Glove Runs Small
"These work very well down into the mid 40'f range. I normally where a medium and sized up to a large upon other reviews. I could have gone to an XL and been happier. As the fabric and construction is top quality, the gloves do not stretch out or relax in any way, this after 300 miles of use. A bit tight across the knuckles in size Large."
Good for cool rides
"I like these gloves. Great for cool morning rides. However, they didn’t stand up to a cold morning ride. I need a heavier glove for the cold. Even so, I recommend these gloves for typical fall mornings and evenings."
