Great minimal glove! Just what I wanted. First wear caused concern that the size was wrong (too small), but by the second ride the gloves fit snugly but not too tightly. If I can keep them clean...can I keep the white white?? That's my biggest worry.
I really enjoy wearing these gloves. They are very comfortable and quite attractive.
I bought a pair of the HF unpadded gloves in size XL. It seems like they run a little small. I have arthritis in my wrists and hands which made them painful to pull on. An XXL size with a Velcro strap would be great. Once I got them on the palms were very comfortable on a long ride and I didn’t experience as much numbness in my hands as I usually do.
It's harder than it should be in general to find gloves without padding and velcro and straps and all that noise, so I'm happy that these fit well and look good. To me, 'needing' padding is just masking some other bike fit problem, adds more points of failure, and makes cleaning them more difficult.
We'll see how they do after repeated washings (I wear them into shower and then air dry) but it seems like they're more substantial than another brand's minimalist glove I've used.
Great glove with no padding. Pretty easy on and off. Like the palm material. Was previously using the Giro Zero gloves and like these a little better so far. The quality seems good so I hope I get more than a season or two out of them. The fit is as advertised.
