Even better than expected!
These gloves are great. They fit more comfortably than most. You don't even notice the stitch lines in the fingers, even during long rides. The leather is soft and very flexible. They are also well vented. I've used them on 90+ degree days, and my hands remain comfortable. Highly recommended!

Great gloves...excellent price!
When it comes to bike gear if you are looking for value for the money I would recommend Olympia. These gloves confirm it. Great fit, very comfortable. I use them for the spring and fall. Perfect for me.

Olympia - 340 Vented Kevlar Protector Gloves
Great protection, high-quality, strong seams, break in easily, good dexterity, and race-legal. Ventilation is not like a perforated glove, but I’d buy ‘em again in a heart-beat.

Nice gloves
I'm a fan of Olympia gloves, having owned them before. I bought these for the external knuckle armor and the big gauntlet. Protection looks superb. The styling is great. The stitching is a cream color, which was unexpected, but after a couple of days, it grew on me. The big gauntlet will wrap around any jacket sleeve - nice. My only complaint is that they feel tight at the bottom of the thumb, particularly my left hand. The lowest joint in my thumb gets rubbed when I clutch a lot (think stoplights). I had hoped they would stretch, but after a month or so of usage, they haven't much. Going up a size to an XL would (I think) have been too much room. They are vented, but I get no real ventilation. I can wear these easily into the 50-degree range. Overall, very happy with them.

These gloves fit great and are wonderful especially when gripping the handles on my Road King there is no binding feeling in my palms. I absolutely love them! Thanks!

Very Nice
I ordered a medium as my standard fit, and the hand part fits perfectly. Getting my hand through the wrist part was a little tight at first, but it has stretched nicely and now it glides as expected. The Construction is very nice and the gloves look very cool. The gauntlet is also very good quality with padding on the wrist on multiple spots. The vents work very nice and I have not felt overwhelmed by the ATL 90+ temps. This morning it was 65 in the early am and the gloves felt great, not hot not cold.

Stay safe and comfortable with these great gloves!
I've only had the gloves for a few days and I can tell that they are a steal. The cost to benefit ratio is outweighed by the benefits. They seem very durable, vent well and feel comfortable at the throttle. It was actually tough to try and ride without the gloves. I ordered a Large which is my normal size for gloves (based on my snowboarding gloves). I highly recommend these gloves to beginners like myself and any advanced riders as well.

I hope I never have an occasion to fully appreciate the cost-benefit ratio of these gloves. But now that I have a pair that fit (sizes seem to run small as they are a unisex product), I couldn't be happier. Even in Texas triple digit temperatures and high humidity, they are comfortable. And, with Velcro fasteners at the wrist and lower forearm, they are easy to get into and out of.

Nice Gloves That Are Well Worth Serious Consideration
I gave it all high rating because it exceeded my expectations. Nice leather, no break in (very soft), fits very well (I am a medium, and the medium fits like a medium), seems to be well constructed with good protection zones. It is not all black. The thread is either yellow or white, so it stands out. The glove has gauntlets and they come up several inches above the wrist. Has nicely placed padding on the guantlet - not in the way. Although the manufacturer wants you to believe they are made in the USA (see their web site), they are made in China. Quality seems fine, but if you gotta have 'made in the U.S.A.', move on. Oh, the little vent on the top of the glove does work. It's not like A/C, but it does help to cool hand when moving at high speeds. Right - size, construction, comfort, style... Seriously consider these gloves. I am glad I got mine. Happy riding.

I just wanted to say that MC Super store was great. They shipped out my item quickly and I was given full communication during the process. The gloves themselves are of great quality and comfort. I look forward to using them over and over again!

Great gloves
These gloves are extremely good and I would definitely buy them again. They have a perfect fit and I feel more protected with the added kevlar. The knuckles aren’t too obtrusive and the padding on the palms is definitely a nice feature. Aesthetically, the gloves look good, but they have bright yellow stitching, which is kind of flashy. The only feature that I would change a little is to put an open/close option on the vent. It chills the wrist when the weather gets a little cold or rainy. Overall great gloves though!

Great Gloves
I was so happy with the design, fit, and comfort that I bought a second pairs of them when I lost one of my gloves. The vent does work, but it's not dramatic.
