Hits sweet spot for shoulder-season gravel riding
These serve my needs as hoped. I read the review here and read reviews posted on the Pearl Izumi website. Some reviewers complain about length of fingers and thumb or annoying inner seams, or small wrist. Here's my review based on a 23-mile gravel ride (2,300 feet of climbing*), tailwind, then beating into steady north winds with temps dropping, no sun, and eventually wind-driven rain: Even though I don't have chunky hands -- and despite sizing charts indicating I should wear a large -- I almost always go with extra large. I don't want gloves to be too short in the fingers or have tightness between fingers at the knuckles. Gloves like that lead to colder fingers, in my experience. I also like the option of enough room for putting a thin glove liner underneath during changeable weather. These gloves allowed for all of that and have great dexterity for finding small zipper tabs to adjust vest, jacket, pockets, or dig out something from a back cycling pocket. I like the palm material and am pleased it does not allow wind through. I shopped another set of gloves (REI Flash Power Stretch) and did a side-by-side comparison (one on left, other on right) and felt the "breathable" palm on the Flash allowed too much wind to pass through during cycling descents. The palms on these Pearl Izimus also seem durable for getting muddy, etc. I almost never use gloves with padded palms. I found they made my fingers numb. On my road bike, they are never needed, even during 100-mile events. On my gravel bike, I have a Redshift suspension stem with a rigid fork. Mountain biking is the only time I'll use a lightly padded glove. There was plenty of rough road on the test ride of these gloves, and they did just fine. And for those worrying about the length of the fingers and thumbs, once you have your hands on the grips, the gloves form-fit pretty well without being tight on your fingertips. *The ride started with a 6-mile climb and tail wind -- conditions that lead to sweaty hands. Then on downhills, many gloves that had enough insulation to make your hands sweat going up don't have enough to keep your hands warm going down. I own a pair of "wind-stopper" gloves in this colder-weather category. They are the single reason I bought these Pearl Izumis...and they really passed the test yesterday. When dusk was arriving with rain and the headwinds from the north, I still had five miles to get back to my car. I slipped on a thin pair of Merino liners beneath these gloves. They had no problem accommodating the liners. And even though these gloves are not water resistant to any practical degree, combined with the wool, I could adapt and keep my hands warm for the final miles. Regarding the thin wrist opening: I have thin wrists, so it is not an issue. And I like the longer length to fill any gap between sleeve and glove. This product hits a sweet spot for shoulder-season riding. I bought the blue. I have seen it in black would be useful soaking up solar warmth on cold, sunny days. I also feel these will make a very suitable liner glove for days that start truly cold (below 20), yet warm into the high 30s. Finally, regarding complaints about the seams: As someone easily annoyed with weird stitching and seams and hit in the wrong place, I found nothing to complain about.
Uncomfortable
Extremely uncomfortable. Either the lining or the stitching scratches and pokes my skin. The issue is on the design. I feel this along entire knuckle and between my fingers. It is not just single point (like bad stitching on 1 unit). Returned.
