Good gloves. Only real summer moto gloves i've worn. Bought them at the same time as a pair of revit monster gloves. I'm returning the monsters because of multiple quality control issues. Might just be the pair i got. The fly however is great. Fit is slightly small. I'm generally between med and large. Large fits well once they stretch just a bit. Can't judge airflow very well behind my handguards, but i tried holding them up at speed. Air does flow. 95F today and they felt fine. Protection seems decent enough for my commuting needs. Fit is tight enough that i don't fear them flying off in a crash. Not so with those monsters i mentioned. I hope they still make these when it's time to replace them.
Yes, I recommend this product.

How hard is the knuckle and finger armor on this glove?

I'm looking for a glove with great protection, yet still looks sleek (not very flashy or technical looking). Is the knuckle armor as hard as on the monster glove? And how well do you think these would do in a crash situation compared to other gloves?
The monster is definitely better protection if they're made well. I bought a pair of each at the same time. The monsters are going back because the fingers are longer on the right than the left. Also, the left cuff is so loose when closed that i can fling the glove off my hand. I have zero faith they'd stay on in a crash.
As for the knuckle armor, it's much tougher on the monster. The fly knuckle armor can be folded in half. The monster, not so easily.
