Pros: For me these fit great, I like the materials used and the venting is just enough. The price is also, I feel, in the realm of the acceptable unlike some gloves which can cost a small fortune, especially as gloves are a wear item. The placement of protection is just right too, especially these short gloves still having a good sized wrist bone pad. My last comment is the construction is good with even spacing of the stitching. I've had gloves that tore with no actual contact with the ground while my previous Rocket gloves protected my hands great in a fall and were barely marked.
Cons: The styling is probably not to everyone's taste. I've seen other manufacturers gloves I like the design of more but that's not my primary reason for buying them. The typical Rocket racing gloves have the stitching on the fingers externally which is a great touch but these supermoto gloves have conventional internal stitching in the fingers - doesn't really bother me much but it would have been nice if they were external stitched as well.
Sizing Info: Other
Additional Sizing Notes: I bought size XL. Basically, if you know which brands fit your type of hand you stick with them, and Joe Rocket fits mine. I have fairly large hands but more importantly, long fingers. it's a tiny bit loose in the palm but you never want too tight a glove.
