won't last long
I picked up a pair of these gloves for about $8 recently. Somewhere in the first few minutes of riding with them they became my favorites as they felt like I was wearing nothing on my hands, yet provided a barrier from sweat making the grips or brakes slippery. After that first trail ride, these quickly took their place in the middle of the pack since they looked like I had been through a war. The palms were pretty chewed up and I wondered how long they would hold up to my abuse. I have probably had a dozen rides with them and feel like they are getting close to glove heaven but will continue to rock them as long as I can.
As a plus these breathe well, have no velcro straps to get in the way, and have a terry cloth back of thumb which should be a mandatory glove feature.
If you are especially hard on your gear or are looking for gloves with any kind of built-in protection then move along, these are not the gloves you are looking for.
