I have several pair of these, both new and some still around not so new. I think the strong point for these is the fit. I think the chamois is good, but not as good as some Italian designed shorts (but whose fit is too small.). These are my favorite by default and great value when on sale.
Lots of research went into choosing these gloves way before WBW put them on sale. I ordered one size larger than I normally wear because these do not have padded palms, grip surface yes but no padding, so I wanted to slip them over my padded fingerless gloves. They do that and I wonder if I could've done it with ordering my normal size? Then again, warmth is better with a looser fit. I appreciate the thin material used as I still have some feel for the handlebars. After my Great Divide Trail ride this Fall, I will be able to speak about durability. For now I am very happy.
Use for cycling, 3-75 miles ride. They have the right amount of cushioning without feeling very bulky. The length is perfect, comes to mid thigh (I'm 5' 1 tall). The material really wicks moisture away from you. Just the right amount of compression. If you are in between sizes I recommend sizing up.
