I had been eyeballing these gloves for a while and have been happy to report I got exactly what I expected. Great fit and comfortable even in warm Arizona on Track Days, or road trips up to cooler elevations.
As with other Alpinestars, I had to go a size larger than I do with gloves from other manufacturers.
Ride smart my friends!

25,000 miles of use and still holding up great. I would buy another pair, but I don't know when I will stop wearing my current pair. Great bang for the buck.
Great ventilation - too good if you ride in cold weather.

Track Days
Just out of curiosity, would these be approved if I was to take my bike to a track day?
Generally any type of glove with a "Gauntlet" (past the wrist) and some sort of hard material over the knuckles will be accepted by a trackday organization.
