Review on 🧀 Genuine Leather Reverse Stitched Riparo by Victor Glatzel

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great looks and fit - durable

After one summer season wearing these gloves I have to say they have become my favorite pair of riding gloves. Sleek look and great fit - I have small hands so putting on gloves is sometimes a problem for me. Pay attention to the size grid of the manufacturer and everything is fine. After wearing them several times in warm weather, they conform to my hands like fine leather when well tanned. The gloves protect my hands from wind and sun on the bike without being heavy or sweaty. I treat my skin with mink oil about every month to keep it supple and clean. The color didn't fade and the stitching stayed strong and tight. No excessive wear after a season of daily driving - I expect they will last a few years. Highly recommended. Update summer 2019: After 1 year and approx. 10,000 km in sun, rain, heat and wind, my opinion of these gloves continues to grow. The photos here are after 10,000 miles on my Polaris Slingshot. I keep my gloves clean (Black Rock Leather Conditioner), use the conditioner about every 2 months. There are no tears in the skin and the stitching is still perfect. I see no reason why they shouldn't last a few more years. These gloves are great value for money. Please refer to the size chart. Wet them thoroughly before your first long ride in the sun and they'll fit your hands perfectly when they're dry. Order a pair, you will be very satisfied!
