Great gloves for track days
I used to own the 2012 Alpinestars SP-1 gloves (L) but they were a little tight and stiff. I went to a local store and tried all the 2013 Astars models but none of them felt any good. They were either tight or too long on my fingers. After contacting the Revzilla guys I decided to purchase the size large Rev’it RSR gloves. I have ridden in them both on and off the track and I really like them. My only minor complaint is that while the size is perfect it’s very difficult to put them on when my hands are sweaty. Otherwise I would highly recommend them. They give a much better tactile feel than my Astars did and are also more comfy. Since I haven’t crashed in them I’m not sure about the protection but they seem to be good enough for track days. For serious racing you might want to get the SLR or the Jerez gloves instead.

Good summer gloves
I have only worn these a couple of times as it is starting to get cold downunder but they are very comfortable and have good protection and airflow. The only negatives is that the cuff is perhaps a little short but still OK.

Great gloves
Great gloves but they fit a bit small, but maybe they will fit better after some use..
Riding in hot weather can be a little annoying, because they don't have good vents.

Excellent gloves
Ordered these on a whim because I wanted something a little sporty, but not over the top, for a second pair along with my REV'IT Fly gloves. Ordered a large, which were a little long in the fingers, then exchanged for a medium, and that was the ticket.
These gloves look and feel great, and they have the safety features I wanted, at a decent price. Highly recommended.

A finger short of great.
So close!
80% of these gloves are well designed and competently executed. The 20% that fall short are the pinkies. Crammed and tight to the point of pain under flexion, the pinkies are overbuilt and feel nearly impossible to break in. Tried wadding heavy paper but may have to resort to steel ball bearings and soaking in hot water to get the pinkies to stretch out a bit. Too bad, too, because otherwise they're very supple everywhere else, not too expensive, and look great in white.

very comfy glove!
Bought these in march and they were instantly my favorite gloves to use. On hot days it can get slightly warm but I prefer the protection and air did make it into the perforation between my fingers which was handy.
The thumb is a little short though :/

Fit is great
I bought these gloves to go on a 850 mile ride through the mountains into eastern washington. The gloves did exactly what I wanted them to which was to offer some air flow for hot weather while having a gauntlet cuff for cooler riding in the morning or mountain passes. The gloves feel like they are already broken in. Very high quality leather. The only thing I wish is that they offered an all black version instead of two toned colors. It just looks too race oriented. Fantastic glove!

This glove is best for the buck
I wear this glove on the warmest days and i feel so comfortable wearing the rsr. I was smiling at the guys I see without any equipment because safety comes first comfort and breathabulity comes together I so enjoying the glove I am doing 40 -70 miles a day just to enjoy my bike and gloves. The sales personnel at revzilla done it again sold me items that makes riding my Yamaha warrior enjoyable & keep me safe. ; )
