Review on Winter Motorcycle Gloves for Men - Cortech Scarab 2.0 by Frankye Sherman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Tight fit, great looks but a bit stiff

PRO:* Gloves look great, I especially like the part that sticks out when you bend your fingers.* Plenty of padding* Warm and waterproof for mild winter climates * Good value for money (compared to other similarly priced gloves) CONS: * I appreciate what Thinsulate does for me. but it bunches up too often, making it very difficult to put on gloves. * This might just be a quirk for me, but suppose someone has a hand as big as mine. Normally I'm tall, but in the end when I grew up, they had a lot of additional problems. I switched them to medium and they were too tight.* Continuing with the previous sizing I'm sticking with medium in the hope that they will wear and stretch a bit. I've used them for about 200 miles but that hasn't happened yet. CONCLUSION: I would still recommend these gloves, they have more features than other gloves in this price range. I think the cons are mostly just quirky things that annoy me a bit and no major issues with the gloves themselves, so I'm just deducting one star for that. They also look great if you want a more dressy black style, most other gloves I've seen in this price range have had lots of bright colors. Certainly not bad! Just a taste for style. UPDATE February 2019: I've used them a few times to shovel snow and after that they broke really well. Now they fit and feel almost perfect, it just took a while and normal bike use didn't break them for me.
