Comfortable and cool April 30, 2008 C. Meyer (Gainesville, Florida) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
These gloves fit my hands great and provide an extra bit of cushioning when griping handlebars. The woven-cotton-upper provides more than enough ventilation for me in the Florida heat. There are even patches of terrycloth on the thumbs to help wipe away sweat. I highly recommend these gloves for summer riding.
Nice gloves April 24, 2008 Ataber (New York, NY United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought these because they were cheap. They're somewhat adjustable around the bottom, thanks to velcro strips, and saved my hands from the pavement when some idiot crashed into me on his bike, making me glad I was well-protected (and maliciously glad that he wasn't).
Satisfied Customer June 20, 2010 G. McVey I like the web-knitting on the back of the hands. It allows perspiration to evaporate and keeps my hands cool. This is the second pair of gloves I've purchased. The first pair lasted 3 years (over 20,000 miles).
No surprises in this basic bike glove July 31, 2008 William Croom 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
These gloves ran a little small, but were comfortable and cool with the netting back. The padding on the palm is adequate. A good choice for the recreational biker.

Planet Bike Taurus Cycling Gloves
Crochet backed gloves are some of my favorite riding accessories. Not only do they keep your hands cooler than regular gloves but you get a really strange tan in the summer that is sure to be a conversation starter where ever you go.
When I first received these gloves I was immediately impressed with the look and feel. They have Kevlar sewed into the heels of the gloves to give some added protection in the event of a fall or is it there for protection against a road raging driver with a gun? I hope I don't have to find out either way.
Like most crochet backed gloves I noticed that the sewn interface between the leather and nylon sections as well as the sewn interface between the nylon and cotton crochet areas at the ends of the materials are the weakest parts of the glove and I had some reinforcing sewn into those areas. That's not an issue specific to this brand of glove, I have that done on most of the gloves I wear since that is the area prone to fail first.
The Velcro strap surface area is large and provides a very secure feeling that the glove is not going to come undone when brushed against something.
Overall I am very happy with these gloves and I will be purchasing more in the future.
