Icon Pursuit Perforated Gloves Fits like a glove... Youve heard it a thousand times, so have we. What actually defines how a glove should fit We think the new standard is Icons Pursuit glove. Supple sheepskin leather conforms to your hand. Plastic knuckle armor for protection, but hidden for a refined look. All over perforation for all day comfort. Reinforced goatskin palm to combat those nasty encounters with the asphalt. Try it on for yourself and then decide. This is what a glove was meant to be. Pittards sheepskin chassis for great fit Goatskin leather palm overlay for durability Integrated knuckle armor for protection Secure wrist closure keeps the glove in place Expansion gussets to improve overall flexibility Snap to keep gloves together while not in use

I love these. I bought a pair in white as my first riding gloves, and wore them to sweaty, ripped up shreds. Then I bought another pair. They're awesome. No, they're not the most protective--the mesh can rip pretty easily--but for commuter riding, they're perfect. They feel so good on, and the leather's soft. The seams can rub a bit on your thumbs occasionally after a long ride, but it's not bad.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I got this to replace another, cheaper helmet that I got when I first started riding. My friend had one of these as a spare and I loved it so much I bought one of my own. It's SUPER comfortable. My only complaint is that if the visor is cracked a bit, the wind gets directed right into your eyes. Easy fix: close your visor. It just doesn't vent as much air as some higher end helmets. The comfort makes up for it, though! I got it in white in an XS and I love the look. I'm a girl with a pretty tiny head and big cheeks and it fits great :P I got the Scorpion 400/700 tinted visor in Dark Smoke to go with it too.
Yes, I recommend this product.

anyone else noticed an uncomfortable seam on the thumbs?
when I wear these for a long ride, there's a seam in the thumb area that rubs and puts a lot of pressure on my hands. it gets really uncomfortable after a while. they're the right size (finger length, etc) but i am not sure what to do about this. has anyone else noticed?

Need help choosing a glove for nice weather commuting in the $55-60 range
I have narrowed it down to the icon pursuit or Cortech Accelerator Series 2 but maybe you have another one to add. I ride a Honda Silverwing so dont want anything too flashy or aggressive. Looking for some protection if I lay it down. I am in the Chicago area so it needs to be a warm weather glove. I will ride between mid-spring and mid-fall so 1.5-2 season glove should be fine. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks
I'm a girl and in TX, so this may not be as applicable, but I love the Icon pursuits. They fit, forgive me, like a glove. Really comfy. I have the mesh ones, so hey're very breathable so that might not work in fall, but I think they also have a non-mesh leather version. They're probably more protection than the mesh as well.
