These are nicely made gloves. They run a little small, so consider that when you order.

This glove fits snug & looks good. Will come back to buy another in the near future.

After several years, I’m back on my mountain bike commuting to work 9 miles each way. I rode for two days without gloves. As I am out of shape, I do a fair amount of leaning on the handlebars and definitely felt worse. My hands definitely feel much better with these gloves. There is padding for both the top of the hand and the bottom. The padding closest to the wrist is in two pieces (left and right) which means that the padding doesn’t bunch up. The leather on the thumb area make shifting easy. These gloves also breath well. I like them a lot; as I’ve only worn them a few times, I don’t know how durable they are. They run a bit on the small side. Overall these gloves are very comfortable and function well.

This is a very servicable glove, that does all that I ask it to. I have worn the gloves for over 500 miles of road biking. The gel cushioning is adequate. The XXL size is large enough for my hands. My only complaint was that the “Screaming Yellow” color is more of a yellow-green. I wanted a really bright yellow color to match my jersey.

I found these Pearl Izumi gloves at a sports department store I’ll leave nameless, but they didn’t have the size I needed. For my lean stature I figured a large would be plenty big, but they were rather tight, especially in the webbing of my fingers. I ordered the XL size from Amazon and they fit perfectly – snug in all areas and no stress on the wrist closure. So keep in mind to order up one size for best comfort.
After wearing these in the heat it’s safe to say they’re the most breathable gloves I’ve ever had. The back of the hand is a mesh material and you can practically see your hand through it. I appreciate ventilation after having thick gloves for years. More importantly, the palm of the hand is Clarino leather with anti-microbial lining. And the gel pads are split into segments so there is less pressure when gripping the handlebars. My hands remain dry and comfortable. Not a lot of sweat and no soreness. Lastly, just a note: I have the “screaming yellow” color and there’s a green tinge to it.
