Louis Garneau Men's Biogel RX V-II Bike Gloves

Excellent bike gloves. Great quality. We ride our bikes for hours at a time at least four times a week

Bought these online. Wish I had tried them on or stopped to think before I wore them Don't get me wrong - they are VERY nice gloves. However, the "small" is smaller than my last pair (different company). Also, the palm pad near the wrist is in the center. Look at your palm. There is a crease in your hand, right there in the center. Your "natural" padding is from that crease towards the base of your little finger and from that crease towards your thumb. These gloves have extra padding at the crease. That is simply NOT a "pressure point". Moreover, there is actually a gap in the padding on these gloves specifically where you have the most "natural" padding on your hand, where your thumb joins your palm, which means that there is no padding on these gloves where you actually want it. Well, at least not where I want it. I was entranced by the red patch in the middle. That is their most vulnerable part! I do love the reflective bit on the back, though, as well as the "brow-wipe". These are improvements over my old pair. I am going to say "no" I would not recommend them, only because I will not buy them again. We will see if I become frustrated with them over the summer. If I change my mind I will try to come back and update this review. (For reference sake, my last pair of gloves is two years old. I lost one this spring. They would easily have lasted me another season. Last summer I rode from Waterloo, ON, to Ottawa. And back.)
