Giro Xen Men's Mountain Cycling Gloves

9" palm width puts me at the far end of L and flirting with XL. Went XL. What I like: tab to pull gloves on as opposed to the "slip on" style. Often with the latter style, I find it almost impossible and always awkward to successfully scrunch my hands into a smoosh small enough to get the glove onto the hand. Touch screen feature is fine, obviously the glove's finger tips need to be warm enough to fool the screen that there is a living or at least warm thing sliding around. Somewhat dubious construction, after less then 20 rides, seam threads are breaking. I tend to ride pretty hot and while these are not super thin, the fabric is holed/vented.

Best overall gloves I've found for protection and comfort. If you want a good trail or all-mountain glove, look no further. These are very breathable for the amount of coverage. They are touch screen capable. Padding in the outer palm, and the pinkie knuckle protection is great. I ran into a prickly bush/tree with my handlebar the other day while trying to look back to check on a friend, and there was only a tiny scratch on my hand.1 star ding is for the weak velcro strap. It wore out after about 10mo, but considering how hard I am on these gloves it's probably to be expected. If you're doing XC biking and don't crash a lot there maybe better options for airflow. Like many of the popular glove brands out there, they run a bit small. So, probably best to order the next size up. Any other glove I've worn (latex, work glove, leather gloves, etc) I use a large. These require an XL, and probably still could use just a smidge more room.

Works great. You get what you payed for. This is my second set. Happy with these gloves.*EDIT*This is my second pair. 1st pair lasted about 4 months... this second pair that I purchased only lasted about 40 days. They started developing holes in the fingertips. Both pairs... I do not even have fingernails.

These are now my go-to summer gloves. Great grip. Nice and cool. There's hardly any padding or support on the palm. So it will not be as supportive as other options for someone who gets numb hands or has carpal tunnel issues. Sizing is pretty spot-on. Touchscreen works well enough if you have the right size.

Well made glove, much venting for unwanted sweaty hands, plenty of padding to absorb hits. Initially ordered size LG which did not fit comfortably, returned for XL and there was not that size jump one would expect. Maybe they have to be broken in? update 05.25.18 - Not very well made, only looked, after 8 uses of normal pavement cycling stitching is falling apart. Previous gloves used are Specialized Enduro and several Pearl Izumi pairs, used for years and still intact. Have to admit will never purchase anything bearing the name Giro related to cycling ever again.

These are the worst gloves I have ever seen! 3 rides and the palm sticking cane apart. No idea where the quality control was at but stay away from this product! Get yourself a pair of 100% or fox. Giro REALLY dropped the ball.These are supposed to be touch screen comparable as well... only if you take one glove off while leaving the other on to hold the device.They are a thinner glove so could have made for good summer wear. Breathable mess on the back of hand, and over all they look good. They are just functional a tremendous letdown.

I purchased an X-large and it fits real well. I have worn these in 45 degree temps and they do keep my hands warm. I noticed they have nylon mesh between the fingers which is not clearly visible in the ad photo and I thought this would defeat the purpose of wearing cold weather gloves. Since my fingers are close together while I ride the air that does get in has no effect. The glove material is not bulky and truly does block the wind from my hands. I will purchase again when the time comes.

Bought these because they were on sale and had great reviews! Just being honest! But I'm glad I did and I would purchase them again. I wasn't too sure of them at first because they are really light and feel a bit thin. But they have held up pretty good. Nice padding in the palm outer edge, nothing heavy duty. Good glove for hot days, like I said, on the thin side but durable.

Habe mir diese Handschuhe nach Empfehlungen aus dem Internet bestellt, nachdem ich in mehreren Geschäften die dort vorrätigen probiert habe und mit keinem der Modelle zufrieden war.Und bin sehr zufrieden mit diesen nun.Sie sind meiner Meinung nach gut für den Sommer und die Übergangs Zeit geeignet, für den Winter eher nicht.Und man sollte schon eine Nummer größer bestellen als man üblich hat, sie fallen sehr klein aus.

Mein 3ter Girohandschuh und die Qualtität stimmt auch hier. Leider fällt der Handschuh in diesem Fall überraschend klein aus. Trotz der, für mich, regulär passenden Größe sitzt der Handschuh ausgesprochen eng, sodass sich mit der Zeit Druckstellen bilden und die Fingerspitzen taub werden. Außerdem ist der Klettverschluss so eng, dass ich ihn gerade noch zubekomme, obwohl meine Handgelenke eher schmal sind. Gerne wieder, aber lieber eine Nummer größer.

guanti molto comodi e freschi, purtroppo poco resistenti, alla prima uscita ho fatto una scivolata su una roccia, praticamente da fermo ho strisciato leggermente la mano sulla roccia e il palmo del guanto si è rovinato.ho fato cadute peggiori con altri guanti, mi sono attaccato a rami, rocce,etc...e non si sono mai rovinati, a questi è bastato un leggero appoggio su roccia e si sono tagliati.li consiglio per comodità e freschezza, ma la durata dubito sia molto elevata

avevo già un modello simile che ho consumato, e mi ci son trovato benissimo. Sono guanti leggeri, con ottimo grip e sensibilità, offrono anche una buona protezione, soprattutto sul taglio della mano, non se ne trovano altri così

Convient aussi parfaitement pour une femme. Ces gants sont résistants et épousent parfaitement la forme de la main. Du tissus léger avec des trous (genre moustiquaire) est utilisé sur les côtés afin de permettre une bonne aération. J'ai teint ces gants 2 fois afin d'obtenir une couleur plus près de celle de mon vélo et après une 2e année, ils sont toujours en très bonne condition. Vaut son prix.
