Leatt MTB 2.0 WindBlock Gloves (MTB / eMTB)

The Leatt MTB 2.0 WindBlock gloves are designed for those in-between conditions—too cold for lightweight summer gloves, but not cold enough for bulky winter gloves.

Built around a 2-layer laminated WindBlock upper, these gloves provide excellent protection from cold wind and trail spray while maintaining a slim, precise riding feel. Unlike heavily insulated winter gloves, the focus here is on keeping dexterity and handlebar feedback high, which is critical for technical MTB and eMTB riding. Leatt uses a HydraDri 4-way stretch outer shell membrane rated at 10,000mm waterproof / 10,000g breathable, paired with a microfleece lining for warmth without excessive bulk.

The standout feature is the MicronGrip palm, which keeps the glove extremely slim while delivering excellent grip in both wet and dry conditions. This allows for strong lever feel and direct front-end feedback—especially important when riding steep terrain or technical winter trails. The seamless pre-curved palm and FormFit finger construction improve comfort and eliminate bunching under load.

Protection comes from microinjected 3D Brush Guard panels on the pinky and knuckles, giving abrasion resistance where it matters without turning the glove into a heavy gravity glove. Reflective print details, touchscreen compatibility, and a lens/sweat wiper complete a glove that works exceptionally well for UK autumn, winter, and early spring riding.

This is not a deep winter glove—it’s a performance glove for cold, windy rides where control still matters most.

Torque Collective Insight

This is probably the most useful glove for UK riding.

Most riders don’t actually need a huge insulated winter glove—they need something that:

• blocks wind
• keeps hands functional
• still lets them feel the bike properly

That’s exactly where the WindBlock 2.0 sits.

For eMTB riders especially:

• longer rides
• slower technical climbs
• more winter mileage

…mean your hands get cold fast.

Heavy gloves often solve warmth but ruin control.

The WindBlock gives you the better compromise:
warm enough, protected enough, but still precise enough to ride properly.

For most UK riders, this is the glove you’ll wear far more often than a full winter glove.
