I tend to have pretty large hands I prob should have gotten a 2xl, but these still fit, snug but they fit. Have put on about 300 miles since getting them, they are holding up fine, look great (green accents for my ZRX look good - ordered the GP-R in black green to match). Hope to never review their crash durability. Def not good for cold weather, but you knew that already..

Yes, I recommend this product.

Is this glove warm enough to handle spring and fall in the NE?

Am looking at either this or the Held Evo Thrux to replace a Joe Rocket Highside as a typical 3 season commuter/tourer. Seems the Held air n dry would outperform the Thrux in the summer but am wondering how well it would do at typical spring and fall temps in the NE in keeping hands warm enough? Does the liner add any warmth at all? Can the air n dry be stretched out to a 3 season glove or is is better suited to a 2 season (late spring, summer and early fall)? Perhaps a better question is what would be a good temperature range for this glove?

I'd say it's a bit chilly under 60 degrees, go with a warmer glove.
