I absolutely love this glove! It's extremely comfortable, and styling gets compliments.
The only thing is, I'm a medium in *everything*, but for this particular glove, it bunches up slightly in the fingertips (only about maybe 1/16") but you can really tell on longer rides when you're reaching for the controls.
I went to a local store and tried on a Small, and that fit much nicer. I'd suggest doing the same if you're considering this glove or the SLR, because the stitching at the tip of the fingers really does add a bit of material to it.

Exactly above - these socks are a must on hot days...wore them on a 90 degree humid day with some VERY non-breathable Vega boots, and they were incredible....feet came out completely dry, even though the sock felt damp. Made my ride that much more enjoyable :)

The stretch areas allow a precise fit and the short cuff allows mobility at the wrist. The leather-wrapped, hard-shell carbon knuckle, as well as padding on the palm and thumb, offer the level of protection and convenience that off-road and city riders alike demand. PROTECTION FEATURES Outer Shell cowhide, goatskin, PWRshell 500D stretch, heavy Spandex, Automan stretch Lining tri-fleece liner Composition outer shell 51 leather, 34 polyamide, 11 polyester, 4 other fibers lining 100 polyester Protection cowhide, hard-shell knuckle, EVA foam at fingers, thumb and palm ERGONOMIC FEATURES Fit tour fit Adjustability adjustment tab at cuff Ventilation ventilation panels at fingers and palm Features short cuff length
 

How would you compare these gloves with the Dainese Gasket, in terms of protection and air flow?

Not sure about the Gasket, but just commenting on airflow - these gloves are downright friggin cold some days, lol.

They flow EXTREMELY well, and in fact, the other day riding to a restaurant at 70 degrees, I showed up with ice cold fingers.

Feels very protected, but I never like to speak on anything regarding protection unless I've personally crashed in it
