Review on 🧀 PEARL IZUMI Elite Gel Bike Gloves by Bernard Foley

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Comfortable, well-fitting and effective

I don't know what gel they're talking about, but it's more like a soft TPU. It does have some utility, but I wouldn't necessarily call it a gel. Either way, it feels good and is also well perforated, keeping the gloves dry and comfortable. The stitching is pretty good, but it includes a long nursing and care label that reads "War and Peace" that's not really easy to remove without creating an annoying rim in the glove. There are cloister hooks that make it easy to put the glove on and off and I found they fit a lot better than their winter gloves, which I struggled to get rid of the thumb pad. They won't miraculously cure my tingling fingers, but I think it's asking too much of the gloves anyway. However, they protect my hands from blisters. All in all I am very happy with these!

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • So far so good
