The Xnetic H20 from Giro brings waterproof performance and breathable fibers together in a design that provides the highest level of flexibility available in a waterproof glove.
The unique three-layer construction fuses the brand's RainGuard membrane between a durable nylon outer shell and hypoallergenic liner, for use in temperatures as low as 40 degrees Fahrenheit / 5 degrees Celsius.
The result is pair of gloves that will be your go-to wet weather favorites, with enough warmth and grip to satisfy commute, road, gravel and trail riders, and that's easily packed down into a jersey or jacket pocket when they're not needed.
Reflective details enhance visibility at nighttime or in low-light conditions when illuminated by a light source, such as headlights, by returning the light back toward the original source and reaching the automobile driver's eye.
Capacitive touchscreens found on most mobile devices like the iPhone react to natural bio-electricity in your skin. By combining a conductive fiber into the fingertips of select Giro gloves, you can stay connected to your mobile device without removing your gloves.
Xnetic Knit features a TPU skeletal system bonded to a knit material, providing support where you need it while the knit offers suppleness and breathability, for sock-like comfort and superb ventilation. Xnetic Knit is also DWR-treated for water repellency and easy cleaning, and reinforced with rubber or TPU toe / heel guards to enhance abrasion resistance and durability.

I have small hands and struggle to find gloves that aren�t too long in the fingers. I bought the size small, which I think correlates to a size 7 glove. The stretchy fabric fits my short fingers well. I live in Vancouver and cycle year round. These gloves keep my hands dry. The rain does make the gloves soggy so I am careful to dry them off and leave them out so they are dry for my commute home. They are good to about 5 C, then my fingers freeze, so I�m looking for some warmer for cold days.
I'm sorry to report they have performed quite disappointingly overall especially given the relatively high cost, and the Giro brand name, I'd expect them to perform much better.
These are my main issues:
1. Within even a few weeks, they were already starting to fray, especially at the fingertips. I realized this was by contacting Velcro that is seemingly on all my other bike gear, like jacket/panniers, bike bag
2. The Touchscreen Tip feature has already stopped working on all 4 fingertips - likely because those are the tips that got frayed the most
3. I use them often to Bike to work in BC. Websites claimed they were rated from around 2 or 5degrees C.
Even under 10 degrees, I find my hands cold. They are indeed waterproof, but they are not windproof, so I think the windchill transmits the cold.
Pros: they are extremely comfortable and lightweight. And they are actually waterproof.
When on sale, these are great value
Fit is spot on
Warm enough for temperature above 40, but gets colder for anything in the 30s
Fabric is waterproof. However, due to short cuff that does not provide enough overlap with jacket sleeves, water will eventually get through the cuff. I wish Giro adds 3-4 inches to the cuff. Yes, it may look goofy, but your hands will be dry
Gloves are good for that 40-60 degree weather. They kept me warm in that range. I like the fit and the feel from the gloves. I've used them in a super light rain/drizzle and they kept my hands dry. I wore them during a steady light steady rain and my hands were super wet after 20 minutes. If I need to keep my hands dry I will stick to the winter gloves with Primaloft.
Gloves fit well based on hand measurement and size chart. Easy to get on my hands. Snug, yet comfortable, fit thanks to slightly stretchy fabric. Good grip on bars. Fabric is not great for nose wipes. Would recommend them, at least compared to what they replaced -- some heavier, not-stretchy gloves that were a bit small and hard to get on and off.
