This is my third or fourth pair of the Pearl Izumi Elite Gel Gloves. Every pair has lasted more than a year with several thousand miles of riding per year,
I finally bought a new pair this year because I wanted to see if I had just become accustomed to the older ones as they slowly broke down. Nope. I really cannot tell which pair I wear - the same great padding. I keep the older pairs in my bike bag as spares and loaners. I've had others forget their gloves, borrow my older pairs and go buy their own.
My only regret? I didn't buy the vented version...

I buy several pairs of these every year. They fit well and they last. Great value!

Can get tight into the webbing of my fingers, but these are a good glove for the price.

There is a seem that cuts into my hands over the long rides.
Review by A.D. pedaler
I use these gloves on all my rides . They are slightly tight which effects their removal, a minor point

These gloves are so essential to keeping me comfortable on long rides and the Ventilated design makes them cool to wear All day.
Always looking for an extra pair of these elite gel gloves!

I bicycle about 3,000 miles per year. The Elite Gel Glove contributes to good blood circulation to the hands on long rides.
Review by RVH
I have been cycling for 35 years and these are the best especially when on sale Gel padding is great cushion.

Gloves are the best thing to happen to me since bike shorts. I had no idea a ride could be so smooth without compromising on feel. You will not regret buying gloves, size is everything.

Ive worn these gloves three times and theyre already coming apart .
Obviously, thats poor quality control and workmanship.
I sometimes wonder if western bike works products arent defects or seconds as I have had other problems with other products ordered .
For example Michelin tires that started cracking two months after I ordered them.

These are identical to the gloves I already own. As expected for the Pearl
Review by Mike
I love the whole Pearl Izumi Elite line. Great value and quality without breaking the bank. This glove is an example of that.

I ride about 40 miles three times per weeks very comfortable pair of gloves but they do run a little bit on the small size
Review by Jonl
I have two pair of older style Pearl Izumi gloves in size medium. Perfect fit, favorite gloves. I saw these on sale at Western and bought them to work into the rotation. These are tight. Thought they would stretch a bit. They do not. They put my hands to sleep and I have to undo the Velcro and slide them toward my fingertips on rides to keep the blood in my hands. PI must have changed manufacturers or something because ALL of its apparel is now so variable in size you cannot trust them, and cannot afford return shipping. I tried to give these a chance but cannot wear them. Money wasted. Going to other manufacturers I can trust in sizing. Too bad.

I usually wear a large for cycling gloves, so order this pair with that size. I also have a very old pair of Pearl Gel glove and love it so much that I always kept an eye out for similar ones. Well this pair of Pearl has nothing resembled that pair that I so loved. It is tight, too tight even. I rode in the low 90s weather and it got so hot that I can't wait to pull it off at rest stops.
