Gloves
From WikiPedalia
Gloves are a good idea for cycling, even in warm weather. They considerably reduce hand discomfort on longer rides, partly due to their padding, and partly because they aren't as slippery on the handlebars, reducing the need to grip the handlebars so tightly and reducing hand fatigue. They also allow use of a hand to break a fall without injury.
Traditional cycling gloves are fingerless, with leather palms, often double layered with a foam sandwich under the heel of the hand. The backs were traditionally a crocheted mesh, though Lycra ® is more common of late.
