I bought these for the Arizona summers. Yes, they're Hot. I like the thicker leather patches and construction. my hands still sweat, but not as much as they would in a not perf glove. would have liked a bit more protection on the fingers. great palm fit. If they made a full gauntlet Winter glove, i'd buy it. that being said, i am considering liners to use in their WP glove.

I moved from a fully vented, less protective glove to the Reax. At the expense of slightly less airflow, these gloves provide excellent protection in areas most likely to make pavement contact in an off.They also provide good feel/feedback with switchgear and helmet vents. As a daily rider in Florida, I find airflow to be totally adequate for our warm climate.

I didn’t experience any of the Velcro hand-scratch issues mentioned by the others. The closures work well and gloves feel securely fastened (even for a short design).

Overall, I’m quite impressed with Reax quality and appearance. I hopeful that this product line will continue to expand and innovate.

Nicely padded. Knuckles are well armoured. The leathers soft and broken in. Very comfy and ventilated. Reflective strips and velcro wrist wrap all a plus. Easy on-off and snug. Top of the line
Worth every penny. .

I bought these looking for some summer leather gloves that wouldn't break the bank. These are not high end gloves, but have a number of good features that make them a good value.

touch sensitive index and I think thumb work well.
Good looks (red/black/white
flow air pretty well
seem to be pretty durable
dexterity is average to slightly above average.

I'd compare these to the older Klim Induction glove, they're similarly priced. Klim flows air better, and are more form fitting so dexterity is also better. Protection is pretty similar, maybe a slight edge to the Klim. While the seams inside the Reax are not finished, they're more comfortable than the Klim until they break in.

Speaking of break in - I wore the Reax for a day, used some leather conditioner on them and I swear they softened up and became a bit more stretched out. This was a good thing for me since I originally thought they'd be too small when I got them. ( I bought a L).

Biggest disappointment is the TPX protection. Basically a plastic, I suppose it will provide more protection than nothing, but others offer better protective materials I think. I will say the padding under the protective layers is very comfortable.

You won't mistake these for Dianese 4 stroke EVO gloves in terms of comfort, materials or protection. But they're also about a third of the price.

If you want easy on and off and softer leather look at the new Klim Induction gloves with the side zipper, but they're about double the price of these.

Would I buy them again, yes. If you're looking for a good protection, moderately priced glove that looks great. These fit the bill very well.

I bought these at Cycle Gear and for the money, these are really really good. The first couple times out with these were kinda painful, to be honest. But after about two weeks they feel fine and are getting better with every ride. Airflow could be better for mesh gloves but it's adequate. Ultimately they are thick, but not too thick which I like. They feel like they will last more than one summer of canyon riding here in So Cal which will be nice. If you're on the fence just get them. You won't regret it.

These are the best gloves I have found to date at any price. I have wasted so much money trying to find the perfect gloves. I have tried just about every brand out there. These have been the best gloves by far. You know the term "Fits like a glove". These fit like a glove. 100 being perfect. These gloves are 98-99. They fit true to size. It's almost like I am not wearing any gloves at all. With all the previous gloves I have owned I would always have to take my gloves off to put on or take off my helmet. It was impossible to work the double D rings. With these gloves I don't have that problem. I can work the D rings. I can do just about everything with out having to take off the gloves. Last weekend we took a one day 400 mile ride to the Dragon and Cherohala Skyway and a bunch of other twisty mountain roads. Talk about great all day comfort even with the temperature going from the 90's in the valleys to the high 60's at the top of the mountains. I have owned the gloves for about 2 months. I am going to be getting a couple more pairs just in case they change them or stop making them, they are that good. To me it's like I have found the holy grail of gloves. The only problem with them is the velcro scratching you when you take them off. But then again they are so comfortable you won't need to take them off that much. These gloves are so good and so well made they could charge twice to three times as much and they still would be a fantastic buy.
Good, durable, comfortable gloves are so hard to find. Get yourself a pair. You will not be disappointed.

I have been wearing these gloves on my daily commute (96 miles round trip) for two weeks. At first they were very tight, after two weeks they are still tight, but are easier to put on and take off than when they were new. The finger length is not bad. My trouble spot on these gloves is getting the base of my palm (just above the wrist) in them. My three big gripes for these gloves all relate to comfort.

First, the leather covering the Velcro on the inside of the glove only covers the Velcro when putting them on, so when taking them off they scratch the back of your hand. Given how tight the gloves are, the Velcro really digs in.

Second, the perforation doesn’t seem to be very effective. They do keep my hands from sweating uncontrollably, however, I don’t feel any air on my hands when riding. Riding in 50ish degree Fahrenheit weather and my hands didn’t get cold does not give me much faith that they will be able to keep my hands from sweating to the point that it starts to ruin the gloves. I don’t think they will survive a Phoenix summer. I guess I’ll know in a few months. I suppose they might work better for a cooler climate.

Third, the palm leather bunches up pretty bad while riding. The resulting bunch feels like there is a small rod between my hand and the handle bar grip. After almost 50 miles of riding, that ‘rod’ starts to hurt the palm of my hand.

I though about switching from large to extra large, but I would think that would cause the bunching of palm leather to be even worse.

The gloves are usable and seem to do their job, just not very comfortably. I would not buys these gloves again, and am on the lookout for a pair to replace them.

These gloves are extremely well made and honestly do not see them falling apart anytime soon. I got them in all black and look fantastic which goes great with my Café Racer bike. The leather is thick enough for protection but not too thick to restrict movement or cause discomfort. The leather, hard bits, textile, and stitching are all of good quality and provide great protection in the event of a slide and fall. It is very comfortable* due to gel padded knuckles and soft silky lining. It being true to size (using the sizing chart) helps too.

The airflow is present, but not as good as mesh gloves; however, that is the sacrifice for added protection and I am fine with that. One thing to note, although there is mesh on the insides of the finger, the only time you feel airflow in that area, is if you spread your fingers apart. I suppose it’s mainly there so that your hands don’t sweat as much.

There are just a few things I wish were different. These gloves fingers are spot on perfect in length for me EXCEPT the thumb. It’s awkwardly smaller, so when pressing on the controls, i cannot fully extend my thumb, therefor I need to slightly move or tilt my entire hand to get to the controls (I tried one size up at a local store and the fingers are all too long, so use the sizing chart). The second thing (mentioned by the other reviewer) is the blasted Velcro that remains inside the glove. It scratches your hand every time you take it off. There is a soft suede like material over it, but the stitching is not at the edge of the interior Velcro part, so as you pull the glove off, it also pulls the suede like material back, exposing the Velcro, scratching your hand. I also had to cut off a sharp corner of the Velcro part as it was stabbing me upon removal of the glove. Again, you ONLY feel these things when you remove them, not while the glove is on. Lastly, the phone touchscreen is just okay. With the thumb i can get it to work, but the index finger takes some placement playing to work (better than nothing i guess?)

Seriously though, these would be the perfect 5 star gloves if it weren’t for those items I mentioned above. It is appropriately priced with the features it has. I plan in keeping these as the pros out-weigh the cons by a massive amount.

I went to Cycle Gear to try these on to see how they fit. Everything was good and i had every intention of buying them. That is, until i took them off. The velcro wrist closure is stitched to go inside the glove and is covered by a piece of leather so you don't feel it putting the glove on or while wearing it but upon taking it off, I could feel the velcro scratch against the top of my hand. Besides that, they feel very comfortable and have a ton of perforation so i have no doubt that they breath very well in hot weather. So if you don't mind the velcro scratching against your hand every time you take them off or can figure out a way to keep the leather in place over it then these would be a very good glove. Maybe in the next iteration of these, Reax will fix this problem. But overall, minus that issue, i would have no problem rocking these gloves everyday.
