   Fantastic gloves, incredible price., December 6, 2011

   These gloves are everything I expected — terrific construction, snazzy fit, stylish excellent looks and adequate breathability. They also look just like the Gaspar gloves Ryan Gosling uses in “Drive.”

   The downside is that when you first get them new, the palms are -too- smooth and slippery, and provide LESS grip on the wheel than your hand lonely. I sanded mine down against rough concrete previous to they really provided proper grip. This might not be an issue if you have a studded or alcantara-wrapped steering wheel, but as both the wheel and the shifter in my Z06 Corvette are leather-wrapped, it initially proved problematic.

   It’s not a deal-surf by any means. Just be aware that save for spending months breaking them in, you’ll need to mill them down for them to work properly right out the gate.

   Other reviews seem to be pretty on track. The leather quality is pretty nice but the fastener and holes are a small roughly constructed, I’d have liked more careful knuckle spacing and a tighter fit nearly the wrist. Subdue, for the price they look to be pretty well place together. It was nice to find gloves without generous brand logos.

   Sizing, at least for the generous size, seems to run a small larger than I’d expect. My palms are about 10″ nearly the center, with about 8″ from base of palm to middle fingertip. The generous size has near-exact finger sizing but is a small too huge nearly the base of the hand & pretty loose nearly the wrist.

   These gloves are GIGANTIC. The finger part is fine, but the wrist and palm are very wide. Velcro closure at the top of the wrist feels a small flimsy, but the leather is okay.
