Strengths:    Great look with great durability and light/thin structure

Bottom Line:   
These gloves are an all around great pair. They appear to be very thin, but have been very durable through all my falls. They are currently covered in blood, but still look great.

If you do DH, I might look for something with a little more palm padding. These palms are thin, but give a great feel of the grips.

Strengths:    Armored knuckles, keeps the thorns out of your hands.

Really cool lightweight and durable mesh on the sides of the fingers.

Fit my hands. Most gloves leave a lot to be desired.

Speshy quality.


Weaknesses:    Questionable velcro closure, but it fits so well this is not an issue.
NO padding in the palm.
Grip strips for the braking fingers are too far out on the finger tips.


Bottom Line:   
A great glove for anyone who does not like thorns ripping into his knuckles on fast turns. If you do not mind thorns and only ride XC, you probably want something else with a bit of padding. If you use Oury grips and/or are an all-mountain rider, this is as good as it gets.
