Hi

May seem a bit trivial really, but having lost a really comfy old pair of Pearl Izumi mitts I'm struggling to find a replacement pair with decent gel padding.

I've looked in my LBSs, Halfords and Decathlon, but none seem to have any gel padding padding on the palm, usually just a bit of reinforcement. The new equivalent from Pearl Izumi are only available in small online which is no good. Only want to buy online if I can ensure that they have good gel, and the various descriptions and photos appear to be deliberately non-commital on gel.

Anybody got any suggestions?

Specialized BG Pro - should be £25 and they are fantastic if you want 'proper' support.

Endura do mitts with big gel padding too - I had problems with my ulna nerve (think that's how it's spelt) and the huge gel pad made a big difference
