I received my gloves and am initially very impressed,the photos do not do this glove justice!At a glance,they look similar to alpinestars gp pro,laminated carbon on knuckles,fingers,gauntlet and small spot on the palm.the first 3 fingers have vents similar to joe rocket.The gloves seem like they will take awhile to break in,hopefully a sign of quality.Looking at these gloves,I can't believe they were only $35, shipping included.I commute,so wearing these gloves everyday, should break in soon.Check out highvelocitygear for photos,bought mine new on ebay.I will report periodically on how they are holding up.They also came with a nice little bag for storage that is mesh one side.
