Nice-fitting gloves. I haven't put a lot of miles on them, but they wear well, and any tough seams are tamed with a touch of leather conditioner. I appreciate the wrist closure being able to go over or under the jacket.

And the customer service people are world-class. In a world that mostly makes one feel ignored at best, snubbed at worst, the LeatherUp staff is like dealing with an old friend: you know there won't be any problem.

The fit and finish of these gloves are excellent. They are indeed well ventilated, and fit true to the sizing chart. They secure in place with a velcro strap, and I was initially over-tightening them and would get uncomfortable impressions on the radial aspects of my wrists after wearing them for prolonged periods of time, but I haven't noticed this since I started strapping them on less tightly. I have been wearing them for about a month so far and I'm very happy so far.

These gloves run snug. I've used them to go to work when temps were in the teens, although I have only about a 20 min commute on Pennsylvania Ave in DC to the Capitol. As with any glove, fingers start to get cold; and these are no different. Insulation is thin and the tight fit of the glove makes them more agile when accelerating and using the clutch and brake levers. The toggle tightening clasp around the wrist is a distraction and I'll probably cut it off eventually, but I usually zip the cuffs inside my jacket sleeves so really no problem. The gloves sometimes seem moist inside when I put them on so wondering if they are sealed so tightly the lining doesn't breathe? No bad smells yet and frankly I love these gloves because they are great looking and very responsive when riding, unlike some of their bulkier counterparts.

I was a bit skeptical when I got the gloves about them being waterproof. Finally got a chance to ride with them. Was half expecting rain but not heavy rain so I threw these gloves and a top part of a rain suit in the saddle bags. Before I left the skies opened up and it POURED. I was soaked completely from the waist down, but my hands stayed dry.

The gloves are a little bulky but not bad for fall/rain gloves. In terms of looks they are pretty good. Fit though, it is a real pain getting my hands into them. Especially when they are already wet. That's the big and only downside to this glove.

I bought this for my wife. Had looked at several rainsuits at our local businesses and on the internet. After receiving her new rainsuit form Leatherup, we decided that this was superior to the one's we looked at, both in person and on the other internet sites. The quality is as good, if not in fact better that the others, at substantially less cost. She has not worn it in the rain yet, but if our experience with several other Leatherup products we have ordered in the last year, we fully expect this latest product received will be as good as represented.

This rain gear seems to the be highest quality I have owned yet. It is quite heavy and bulky to pack but if it keeps me dry I can accept that. The quality looks to be top notch. Unfortunately I have not had the opportunity to use it in the rain as yet. Living in FL and riding to work everyday I get plenty of riding time in the rain. No other suit out of 5 I have owned has been up to the task of keeping me dry. The rubberized seat panel really grips the vinyl seat of the bike; there will be no sliding around there. I ordered a large and it is quite roomy; I might have gotten by with a medium. Hopefully the roominess does not translate into excessive flapping and contating hot spots on the bike, but I know I can get these over anything else I am wearing.
