The Grand Départ Suisse cycling gloves are lightweight, breathable and designed to deliver excellent comfort and performance on every ride. Part of the collection dedicated to the Grand Départ Suisse of the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift 2026, they combine technical functionality with a design inspired by the race start in Switzerland.
The breathable, non-slip palm with anti-shock padding ensures a secure grip on the handlebars, improving control and reducing vibrations for a smoother, more comfortable ride, both on climbs and technical descents. The sweat-wipe thumb adds practicality, allowing riders to wipe away perspiration without interrupting their effort. Featuring a low-cut cuff and a Lycra back, the gloves offer a comfortable fit and a light, flexible feel.
The design reinterprets the Swiss flag in a contemporary way, replacing traditional colors with tones inspired by Zwift and the Tour Femmes, resulting in a modern and dynamic aesthetic. Perfect for riders seeking the right balance between performance and style, these gloves complete the Grand Départ Suisse kit.
