Stephen Glendale,  CA I was not impressed I ride every day and I depend on my gear to last at least a year before holes start to appear. For some reason I thought these had more leather and a thicker layer, but they are only 35% leather. I really like Alpinestars gloves, and I have their SP1 and SP2 GP gauntlet gloves for track, and shorties for the street. I have had their SPS and those are full leather all around so they are more durable plus less expensive, but the big lump on the knuckle is a little weird. I would do research before buying these gloves if you want durability as well as a nice look. I should have bought the GPX. :-(

Brett Riegelsville,  PA Alpinestar SP-X Gloves When you’re looking for a glove there are so many different parameters to think off. If you’re looking for a summer glove than this one's for you. The breaks in armor pads on the top of the glove feature superb venting for those hot days. Speaking of the armor, it’s made of woven carbon fiber, that looks great and is highly functional. The only problems that I encountered was that, even when using alpinestars size chart, the glove was quite tight when I first got it. It’s been three weeks now and it's still slightly tight. One other problem was the retention system on the wrist consists of Velcro and tears up the opposing thumb material when tightening. The cost is not that bad either, at 99 bucks.

Dan Mount Pleasant,  MI SP-X Gloves These gloves are great. Make sure you buy a size bigger than the one that should fit. The finish is awesome. I have had them about 2 months now and couldn’t ask for me. Comfortable, especially after you break them in, and very durable. Amazing!

chris c Voorhees,  NJ They are my first pair of gloves They are my first pair of gloves, and I like them. I wear size 8, or small, and it has a tight fit. They are strong finished and feel durable, although I haven’t really done anything to test the durability. One thing I like about them is the carbon knuckles. One thing I don’t like about them is that I can feel the seams inside the gloves. The price tag is a little expensive, but I do like them.

Rich Lawrenceville,  GA Alpinestars - SP-X Gloves Definitely get a bigger size if you do buy these, I returned them, thumbs bunch up if you try them on and grab the handlebars and knuckles are scratchy, the cheaper ones from another brand were better

Jody G Woodbury ,  CT Alpinestars - SP-X Gloves The fit is good once you break them in. I do find that the material on the finger tips is fraying from the Velcro loop when securing the wrist straps. The wrist straps could be a little longer as I find the overlap to fasten them is marginal. Other than that the form, fit and function is good
