I bought these for a few weeks of touring in Vietnam and Thailand during rainy season. I've tried a variety of other gloves in the past for these types of trips, and was never happy. These Rukkas were great and I'm completely satisfied. They kept my hands dry through countless rainstorms. I wore them in combination with a rain suit that kept water from running down my arms and into the cuffs. The weather was really hot but my hands were not burning up. These gloves are good for hot weather. (I've tried leather gloves before and they were uncomfortable in hot weather). The gloves get sweaty though after long days. I typically rode 7-10 hours a day. They are durable, with no stitching coming out so far. Seams are all still tight. They did well in a minor crash. I slid a short distance and the palm slider that was in contact with the ground protected my hand. My only complaint is that the lining sometimes pulls out with your fingers. And when I try to put my hand back in it takes some work to get the fingers in the lining to line up with the fingers in the outer glove.

Pros
waterproof
not hot
good protection in crash
comfortable

Cons
line pulls out when you take them off

I don't write many reviews. I think the truth is that people are compelled to write when either a product is awesome or awful.

Right out of the box, these gloves are awesome. Good looking, great protection across the knuckles, fingers, palm, and wrist. Nice design with the fingertips that can use a touch screen. Good and grippy on my bike grips. Good fit, albeit slightly small. They should break in to being the perfect size. My hand, measured around the knuckles is 8.25 in. I ordered the size 8. Wind and waterproof in a driving rain.

Highly recommended.

These gloves are fantastic! I love them. They are a wonderful 3-season vegan option. I'll be wearing them pretty much year round in Los Angeles, but I also have some Alpinestars Spartan gloves for hot weather riding.

The only downside was that I had to end up ordering these Rukka gloves from a different company in the UK. I ordered the black ones (which are shown in the photo as having some grey on the cuff), but RevZilla sent me the hi-hiz ones — twice! It was a little frustrating, but RevZilla handled it well. They didn't charge me for return shipping, and they refunded everything.

In the end, I actually found that they make these gloves in all black (without any grey on the cuff at all). So I got an even better color for my tastes. Best of luck to you in the game of color roulette for these gloves!

I have had these for about 5 months before I got caught in the rain. They are a little short on the fingers but not to the point of discomfort. Great fit and good protection. When I got caught in the rain (steady almost heavy rain) the inside of the gloves were soaked in under 15 minutes. My pair was not waterproof at all. Revzilla was excellent in dealing with my issue. Once they received my gloves they issued me a full credit. Now I need to find a good pair of waterproof gloves.

I was initially worried these were too small. But they broke in nicely after a day of riding.

They keep me dry, and relatively comfortable in hotter riding. They didn't keep the hands particularly warm in colder weather, but definitely dry.

The gauntlet is nice to go up over my jacket and flow wind over in colder weather. And it's small enough that I can open up the jacket and let air thru if it is warmer.

I miss these gloves. I left them on my moto trailer and they are now lost on the side of the road, with some hitch hiker now enjoying them without knowing, probably, what they are really for!

I live in the Seattle area. These GoreTex gloves with a long cuff are perfect year around. There is no insulation. Thus in winter I add a thin liner and, along with handlebar heaters, they are comfortable. Great style. Recommend.

Only used once, I like the Look and feel is good, but the middle finger is too short for my hand. When gripping the handles after riding 30 minutes tips of both middle finger hurts.

Rode through about 2 hours of constant rain at highway speeds and these gloves did not leak at all. Im glad I got a larger size than what the chart said I took because they run small. The chart said 9 but I got 11. My middle finger was almost at the end of the glove. The rest of the glove fit great. Not insulated so riding at 65+ in driving raid my fingers got a little cold but tolerable. I got these strictly for rainy days and not my everyday glove. Like the glove.

I was looking for an all-around glove to fill the gap between my cold gear and hot gear. That means they needed to work between 50 and 80 degrees. I also get stuck in the rain a lot on long trips, so waterproof and visor wipe was a must. I've had several other brand's "waterproof" liners fail, so I would accept nothing but gortex, and only with the gorgrip. I keep my phone mounted for music and GPS, so touchscreen ability was a must. Basically, these were the only gloves I could find that met all my requirements. The only others that were close were all leather and when combined with gortex they became crazy expensive and really hot in temps above 60.

I've used these for about 3000 miles, most of which was one road trip. They broke in nicely and stretched a little. I had one whole day of rain and my hands did get pretty damp, but I think that was due to my heated grips and condensation. I did the bucket test before I left and they stayed dry while submerged for 60 seconds of finger wiggling.

I have a wide hand and short fingers, and these fit me just right. My hand measures about 8.25 to 8.5, but a 9 fit me perfect. I like the size of the palm slider because it isn't as obtrusive as other gloves I've owned. Oddly the wrist strap doesn't really work. I have to have it as wide as it goes to get my hand in, then once it's in, They won't tighten enough. I run out of velcro when I try to sinch it all the way tight on my wrist (for inside the cuff in the rain). Another 1/2 inch of the soft side of the velcro would have avoided that problem.

The only major complaint I have is the durability. After the first day (750 miles), the little grippy bumps on the fingertips pretty much all wore off. I've only had them about a month, but they look a couple years old already. Even the velcro seems to look frayed already.

I really like that they are not leather on the back of the hands. This makes them tolerable in weather up to 80 degrees if you are moving. It's not as if they flow air, but they stay pretty cool for gortex. I wish the grey color was on the back of the hand too. That would help with the heat from the sun. Oh yea, the visor wipe is awesome. I used it a lot!

Overall I'm happy with them. They have more features for the price than anything out there. They should work well for my needs assuming they last long enough.
