Melanie K
Verified buyerGood for chilly morning commutes
“These gloves are perfect for chilly morning commutes when it's not yet raining. They definitely block the wind and keep my hands comfortable. The fit is snug.”

My favorite gloves
“My favorite pair of gloves. I reach for these every time I go for a ride now if it's under 70. They're incredibly comfortable straight out of the box (which is rare for Alpinestars in my experience). I've ridden with them in high 40's, low 50's (long distance) and it was manageable. Definitely the perfect glove for 60's. They also look really good with any 'outfit'. I wear them with my street/casual wear and with my dirt/off road gear and it never looks out of place. I wear a medium in most women's gloves and these fit perfectly in a medium on my hand. My only gripes are: -I wish it had a ”

Verified buyerMy first pair of riding gloves are awesome!
“These gloves are awesome, but under 45 degrees, you will still start getting some numbness from the cold. However, I bought these in a Medium and I believe now that I am a small, however, this still works out well, since I use heated glove liners under these gloves and wouldn't have had room for them if I had purchased a Small. I love the clean look of these, they seem to be made of the highest quality materials and I believe provide a lot of knuckle protection. I also like the leather on the palms alot.”

Melissa S
Verified buyer“Wore these on a cross country trip from Arizona to Wisconsin in the Fall. My hands stayed dry. Warmth was a miss in 30/40 degree weather but to be honest, my gloves had a little bit of room in the finger tips with I think might account for the chill. All-in-all I was very happy with my purchase when I got rained out in Iowa.”
