Just be careful not to let the finger area touch the velcro when wearing the glove because this will start destroying the material.
Bottom Line:
This is a great fit glove... for me at least. The quality is awesome and good looks is a plus. This gloves works for me!
Every person has different hand sizes regardless if it's small, medium, large or even xlarge. I recommend you fit the gloves first before buying one.

Bottom Line:
Very poor product. Rubber on finger that is supposed to help keep fingers on brake levers fells of very quickly. But the biggest problem is that event thou my dirtpaws are a perfect fit somehow the inside of the glow is so slippery that my hand slides inside the glows and when my hands get sweaty it becomes very difficult to have a secure grip on handlebars. I would say that this product is dangerous.
Well made and cool looking but made by people who never used it in a practical environment... is good for riding around park but not for MTB.

Weaknesses:
Crap manufacturing. These gloves literally fall apart off the rack. The rubber on the knuckles is glued on; it comes off if you bend the fingers too much. The stretchy material in the fingers also becomes frayed and thinned when it touches the velcro, something you really can't avoid lest you be conscience of how you remove your gloves. I feel like the gloves will rip if I pull them off too hard.

The Dirtpaw though made for MotoX, its great for MTB use. The pricepoint is great, the glove is breathable and is grippy. One drawback though is that the lycra on the fingers (especially the index fingers) snags on the Velcro closure.
I love this glove so much I bought another pair in another color. I'm inbetween sizes and the XXL is too big while the XL is snug. I'll find out if the seams hold out from the tighter fit.

Good gloves. don't rip, breathe well, perfect amount of padding.

Some of the seams started to come undone, because they were a little tight(I'm in between sizes, and would rather have them fit tight), but luckily I can sew. After i restitched them a little looser they fit perfectly and don't unstitch themselves. The only real issue i have is that the thin lycra materail on the sides of the fingers rips and wears out before everything else.

Looked all over for a decent fitting pair of gloves that don't look geeky. The Dirtpaws fit the bill. It's like having the advantages of wearing gloves (protection from falls and trailside branches, plus the funky tan line), but they feel like they aren't even there. Super comfortable, despite no padding. I imagine they will last at least this year, and maybe next year, too. Stand up to washing well (hang dry them)
They are probably a down hill glove, so it probably isn't fair, but I'll knock one flaming whatever off because they don't have the nose wipe thing built in.

Bottom Line:
These are excellent gloves. They look great, have lasted over a year now and are still like new (except for smell =). Protective outer keeps thorn bushes from tearing up your hands and your gloves. These are great gloves to have for XC or freeriding just forget about using them in the winter!

Duration Product Used:
Less than 1 month
Price Paid:
$20.00
Purchased At:
Local bike store
Strengths:
Looks cool, heck of a flashy pair of gloves. holds up well. I just bought it abt a week ago so still into breaking it in. Works great so far. Okay fit (u can geat a better fit with AXO's though). Super cool affordable price!!!!!!
Weaknesses:
The inside of the gloves have an exposed padding of thin sponge, thin meaning super slim so much so that as though it had no padding at all. The loud colour might put of a few.
Similar Products Used:
Fox Incline Axo Descend GT x and some other weird brand-name gloves made by not so famous companies yet perform great but look worse than your granma's ass.
Bottom Line:
You could get better gloves, in terms of fit. But none beats this in terms of their looks (good for posers like me !LOL!) and price. If performance is what you want go get some AXO's for cryin' out loud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
