Casual street gloves
25 April 2025 by Johnny
I have had these gloves for a couple of years now, great design and look great. Very retro/casual. After 2 years one of the finger stitching has come undone, although I have used these gloves in all weathers.

Still being worn in

A bit tight to get through the wrist, and on the thumb, but only a week or two old at the moment. Hoping they will bed in. Otherwise light and comfortable.

Basic summer glove with antique finish
21 July 2021 by Steve B
Good Richa quality as usual. Took some time to wear in, pretty tight and clasp hard to close at first. But normal with leather and soon fitted well. 4 stars because they are a thin glove, well ventilated, but for me summer use only. Antique brown ordered by mistake but liked the looks so kept them. Good addition glove but not all season

Awesome looking gloves and lovely fit, I would advise to buy larger than normal as they are on the small side

Great set of gloves
23 March 2020 by Owen K
Both fits and feels food, passing is sufficient for causal riding. Looks good and no restrictive.
Works well for longer trips nice ventilation for sunny weather.
Zipper feels good haven't had any issues or the zipper slipping.
Would be better to see some adjustability on the wrist as it only has one locking point for the button

Spot on

I'm normally between a L & XL so usually would order both sizes then choose best fit then send one back this time l just ordered the Large which was a little tight at first but finger length was spot on but now once worn a few times fit like a glove .

Great summer glove
02 May 2018 by M R
Gloves fit as expected and are really comfortable. They have ventilation making them ideal for the warmer months. I think I'll use these 6 months of the year. I like the style too goes very well with my cruiser - Vulcan S.

Very satisfied, bit smaller than expected. Should have ordered a Large and that would have been a first for me.
