Great for its price
I've owned and used these gloves for about a year and i'm really loving them for summer riding. They have excellent airflow and great styling. There are no major issues that concern me with these gloves, but some minor things are:
It could be slightly more grippy, but no real cause for alarm, works fine for its purpose.
And the threading does start to frey a bit after prolonged use, but it does not affect the fit of the glove. Nothing a lighter can't take care of.
Overall a great summer glove for its price.

Small and Cheap
I ordered these by suggestions from peers, I had high hopes. As soon as I received them I knew I was in trouble. A bunch of the stitching already seemed to be ready to pop and they fit like a torture device. I'm sure that if I got a larger set they would have been comfy and flowed a lot of air, but I doubt they would make it more than a few months before having to toss them.

Nothing special and slightly large
Didn't really look up to the picture (blue version), but was pretty okay for the money.
My main complaint is the size, I got an SM and it's larger than what I usually wear. Gloves which aren't snug fit = not really good, so can't really recommend.
Otherwise these are a decent pair of gloves for the money.

Great Glove for the money
Zilla got the order to me fast and in perfect condition. The gloves themselves seem to run a little small according to the sizing chart. I ordered Large and they are difficult to put on, but fit snug and after a few days they did stretch a bit and are easier to get on and off. The quality seems to be high considering the price, though the stitching on the middle finger between the fabric and leather came loose. Nothing I couldnt fix on my own. Ventilation seems pretty good. I ride in Florida and even on hot days my hands aren't sweating. Protection is good for the style but I wouldn't mind if the wrist padding extended a little bit to better cover the Radius/Ulna bones. After a couple days of break-in, these gloves feel fantastic and the knuckle protection sits in the right spot so there is no irritation. I'd buy again and recommend them to others.

Great product for warm weather
I've been wearing these gloves in Rio de Janeiro for exactly one year now. Wear them every day riding in the city. Now, after riding 11000 miles and crashing at approximately 60mph I am finally thinking about retiring them. The mesh part is worn out and starting to tear up. So will probably get an all-leather Alpinestar GPX model now. By the way, when I crashed (about 8 months ago), these gloves did a great job protecting my hands. They really are much tougher than they look. Great product for this price.

Good glove
The glove fit true to its size, flowed a nice amount of air but not enough to leave my hands cold on a mid winter ride, all be it a warmer day, about 50 out. Good grip on controls, as well as a good looking glove, cheaper than the carbon fiber counterpart but offering relatively the same protection.

Good summer weather gloves
I bought these as a good crossover for sportbike/ dirt duty, but have used them only on the street. I didn't want a full gauntlet for daytime and these short cuffs fit the bill perfectly. There is extremely good feel/ sensitivity on the controls through these gloves. Most of the time I'm hardly aware I'm wearing them; very comfortable. I've never had to take them off or adjust them once I put them on, and they flow air very well. Another plus is they also look great. These gloves offer great hand protection, but zero past the hand i.e. I wish they extended just a bit further at least to cover the ulnar process, maybe with some kind of TPU or other hard part, say, integrated into the closure strap. That would have made them a 5/5 for me. Great glove nevertheless.
