Before we tell you how much they cost, we’ll tell you how beautiful they are…

Handmade in England, these are constructed from African Hair Sheep leather (these gloves are well traveled!) – a super soft material that is breathable and wicks sweat quickly.

The padding is distributed for road cyclists – with extra attention around the thumb and forefinger, whilst double stitching at key wear points ensures durability.

A contrast leather trim completes the look, with an embossed Rapha logo. These are a treat buy, at £130 from Rapha. 

Base layers are another one of the items that can get overlooked in summer –here’s why you should definitely be wearing one!
