Pros: I've owned a pair of these gloves for a year. They fit well even on long rides. Hands felt cool even in the hot Florida sun.
Cons: I noticed they started to tear on the underside of the cuff. This was where I would grip them to pull them on. That should have been my first warning sign. I recently lost the front going around a turn. The top of my left hand dragged along the ground for a few feet. That was all it took for the these gloves to tear through. This was a low speed crash (25+mph).
Sizing Info: Fits true to size
These are great gloves that give the illusion of having your hands protected. In practice that isn't the case. After my low speed crash, I've re-evaluated my criteria for short summer gloves. I definitely want something with more armor. I guess that is the trade-off, airflow vs. protection. After grinding down my knuckles I'm opting for armor first.
