Pros: Good appearance. Good safety features. Supple on first wearing so no break in period.
Cons: Gauntlet runs tight. Could be improved with larger guantlet.
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: Overall a good fitting glove. The gauntlet is too small which makes fitment over leather suit/jacket sleeves difficult but not impossible. Does tend to make the gauntlet twist though.
Low-sided at around 45mph on turn 9 at PIR (Portland International Raceway, Portland, Oregon) wearing these gloves. The knuckle protectors on the right glove took what the track had to offer, all four knuckle mounds worn flat, and I will need to replace gloves, duh, but without the knuckle protection my hand would have been toast. Only external physical injury I had was a small scrape on the inside of my right pinkie knuckle where the leather was worn through during the right sided low-side. Overall a very reliable glove, a model I would buy again.

Very good full-protection gauntlets

Pros: Excellent protection, good price, relatively comfortable, solid construction
Cons: Rubber tabs on velcro straps break off, little short in the palm
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
Additional Sizing Notes: If in doubt, go one size larger
Comments: I'm going to have these gloves for a long time, they fit well, offer excellent protection and they are built to last. They can get a little hot, but that would compromise the protection, so I... (Read the rest of this review)

Pros: A well constructed glove. Reinforced knuckle protection is pretty solid. Decent price for full gauntlet gloves.
Cons: Basic looking glove. Doesn't look as sporty as Dainese or Alpinestars. Gets a little bit on the warm side. Rubber piece on wrist enclosure can rip off. Like mine has.
