So good that I'm going to buy another pair
I bought these gloves in February 2019 and to date have covered nearly 14,000 miles in them. The fit is perfect for my size twelve hands, the build quality is as good as it gets, they clean up like new. I've used them from 30 degree plus heat in Europe to single figures in Scotland where I live in all weathers, they have not let a drop of water in. Super comfortable with no bunching in the palms and made so there can be worn over or in sleeves. So good that I'm going to buy another pair just in case they stop making them, praise indeed as my last two pairs were Rukka's finest.

These gloves have a high quality feel to them and the fit is excellent .
Read moreLovely!
Wasn't expecting that great of a feel- usually with waterproof gloves they're horrible and thick and leave you with no feel and lack of dexterity - however these are lovely and give you enough resistance to be able to balance your clutch and throttle positions. Lovely quality, very well-made and even in 28c not too hot either which is fab Not tried them in the wet yet though! Bit stiff and dry when your first get them so make sure to condition of you have any, and wear them around the house to break them in a little

Owing to lockdown, not worn yet. Great fit and should be a good product. Good price and excellent service again.
Read moreGood all-rounder
Seems to be waterproof so far. Good level of protection. They allow an average level of hand dexterity. Best suited to mild weather, there is Kevlar inside rather than insulating material. They feel cold in 8*C to me, pair with heated grips. Construction quality is ok, a few stitches around the finger tips look like they will come loose over time. Good value, there's not much else with the same features. Only really let down by lack of insulation but they may be better in the summer for it. Could also do with ability to operate a touch screen

Read moreAll seasons riding gloves
Excellent construction and fit. First rate glove for all seasons. Expensive yes but I would expect these gloves to last many years.
Read moreModerate protection
Well made gloves, with a solid feel. The thumb is oddly long. Protection feels a bit light - some plastic on the knuckles and good wrist guard, but not much more. Closure system is easy to use, and nicely waterproof. I'm using these in warm, wet conditions and they're doing well. Sportsbikeshop as usual are brilliant.

Snug fit, measure your hands and size accordingly, work great in the rain, nice and dry, cold weather riding 0 and below the tips of your fingers will still get cold due to wind chill but nothing painfull......great for Scottish weather

whether these gloves are suitable for hot and rainy days
April 10, 2019We can confirm these gloves would be suitable as they are vented and Gore-Tex lined.
Hi, I am planning to order this Held-glove. But I want size 10, (after tested a Held glove at Home). What is that in XL, L or M? Also I want long fingers if possible. Please help. Best reg. Claes
January 3, 2018A size 10 equates to an XL. Unfortunately a long finger option is not available in this glove.
