The production of gloves leaves traces in nature. Traces that Roeckl wants to reduce with the Eco series without compromising on performance.

Roeckl's Eco series comprises premium sports gloves that are designed to be as resource-friendly as possible. Functionality, performance and quality are the top priorities. In spring 2022, the Munich-based glove manufacturer is expanding its range to include the Isone and Malvedo models.

Roeckl is using BIOcore cushioning for the first time in the Eco series products. This cushioning insert is designed to reduce hand fatigue, be lightweight, non-slip, breathable and yet robust - and is made from 45% renewable raw materials.

High-performance damping: Bi-Fusion

In addition to the eco version, Roeckl claims to have developed a new high-end cushioning system. Called: Bi-Fusion. The special feature: The cushioning on the palms is made up of two components. The gel allows the pad to adapt to the grip like a liquid, while the foam underneath keeps its shape. This should distribute the pressure evenly and thus minimise hand fatigue. Six models with short fingers and the Morgex as the only long-finger model are available with bi-fusion technology.
