Give it a couple days to bed in and it's a very comfortable pair of gloves. It hasn't yet been that cold but I was wearing them at 12c and no cold fingers.
Plenty of protection
Nice and comfy and warm, not too warm if you wear them in summer but not recommended, nice and waterproof and keeps your hands warm and dry even in 0c and helps block wind chill
These gloves are well worth the money they keep my hand dry and warm in the rain and not hot in the
Sun 100% would recommend
Top quality from Alpinestars. Feels snug, I'm in between size S/M and ordered M. Size is great. Protection quite good, no palm slider tho. Overall great product.
I really like these as a waterproof, mid season gloves. Like other users they are initially a bit stiff but they do seem loosen up pretty quickly. I haven't tested them in the wet yet.
Amazing product and fits true to size, super comfortable and great in bar feeling
I bought these gloves for “summer” use, they’re thicker than a standard summer glove and excellent quality.
Used in the rain on the motorway and hands stayed dry.
The reviews I read stated to go a size up as they come up smaller but I didn’t find this. I ordered Large on the back of this and found them a little big but not massively so, only one of my fingers reach the end of the glove.
I still recommend them, maybe best to try them on
Fit is too tight to start with, but gets better over time. Appears good quality. Not used in rain yet.
These gloves are exactly what you need in the summer months had a 2 hour ride in the poring rain and no problem with them leaking in
Really good gloves. I tried one size larger but they were too large so I went with my normal glove size and the fit was perfect for me.
The usual excellent service from SBS.
Nice summer glove. Being short they obviously don’t go over your sleeves of your jacket
Needed new summer glove. These broke in within 2-3 rides and are really comfy. Great material and nice looking. My gut feeling tells me they won’t last but at the price I’m fine with that.
This product is perfect
Amazing quality and will keep my hands nice and dry!
They do come up small so I had to go a size up for a good fit. The glove looks great and performs very well keeping my hands warm and dry during my winter rides which are usually a couple of hours.
The glove also allows you to be able to use your smart phone with touch sensitive finger tip.
Thoroughly recommend this glove.
Good fit & comfy to wear without being too heavy or thick.
