These specific gloves were purchased for winter use (as they are referred to as winter gloves...) in Attica with a Scooter (250cc) for rides with a maximum speed of up to 100km/h. It doesn't make sense to spend money on these gloves for the following reasons:
1. The hand will freeze in cold temperatures below 10C. With gloves of a higher rating, the hands stay warmer, and in rain even worse because...
2. They are NOT WATERPROOF, not even in light rain! They will immediately get wet from water and only from other vehicles in front, within the first 1-2 kilometers, and because they cannot keep the cold out, the hands will freeze even faster. From Kallithea to Alimos via Amfithea during rush hour (so maximum 40-60km/h between cars), the hands were soaked halfway through the journey.
3. They have a feature (as you can see in the photos) that the touchscreen can be used with the side indicator, but it requires a lot of patience to get it to work 3 out of 10 times with dry gloves. With wet gloves, even worse.
4. The fingertips do not have contact with the finger because they are too thick, which means that any movement you may want to make (like taking off the helmet or unzipping the jacket) is impossible because you have no sense of whether you caught the zipper or any bumper from a truck...
5. On a day without rain and with sun, even if it's 12-15C, the glove gets excessively heated by the sun and makes your hand very warm. If you have a problem with sweaty hands (fortunately, I don't), this is another reason to stay away from these gloves.
They are handy gloves, not only for motorcycles but even just to look at.
I had the gloves for 3 years, unfortunately I had an accident and lost them. I proceeded to buy the same gloves again because they covered me well. Waterproof, comfortable fit on my hands, nice appearance, warm enough for winter, and very good feeling when handling the machine. It is true that they have a slightly tight opening when you wear them, but it is not something that bothered me. I bought them for 44 euros, at this price you simply buy them without second thoughts.
I will agree with tasos, if you have wet hands forget it, the inside will definitely get wet and it will be annoying. And yes, the front opening is indeed narrow, but it opens with use and it's not that big of a deal. And one last negative point is that the velcro has weakened a bit after almost two seasons of use, which is expected for all velcro with the same amount of use, it can be fixed by a tailor if needed. Now, onto the positives, it is indeed waterproof, as waterproof as the softshell material plus the internal waterproof membrane, which in heavy rain I only felt a bit of moisture on my fingers, definitely not wet, although I did struggle a lot to put it back on afterwards. In terms of cold, at 13 degrees with a 15-minute drive, my hands feel slightly cooler. On the same route at 7 degrees, they were frozen but bearable. Aesthetically, it is a nice glove, slim and stylish, it goes inside the sleeve, it has protection where needed and has excellent grip. It never slips on the gas and my lever feels like polished marble (zero friction). It works on touchscreens with the index fingers, but not with the thumbs for double gestures. I use it up to around 25 degrees, beyond that my hand sweats and I switch to summer gloves.
If you manage to wear them, they are comfortable.
I mean, to put your hand inside the glove, the passage is disproportionately small compared to the size.
Small passage for a large glove.
Forget it with wet hands.
When you manage with difficulty and suffering to wear it, it is comfortable inside.
Of course, what can you do with it...
