They fit pretty well, and have an understated look. There is no padding in the palm at all, and the leather on the palm is thin as well. I would see if you can find them at a shop to try on.

I don't have them, but I wanted to pass along a discount code to you. If you go to www.sportbiketrackgear.com and use promo code ICON GEAR you get 20% off.

Alternatively, if you like Alpinestars, you can use ALPINE for 15% off. I just got my Astars SPS gloves from them for $59 + $10 shipping.

I have a pair of those.

I have had them for maybe a year and a half and really like them. The leather is thin enough to be comfortable. Not sure how much protection they would provide considering I have never had to put them to the test. The only down fall is, I have just started to get holes in the fingertips. I am actually in the middle of deciding if I want to get another pair. I really like how comfortable they are and how they look, but I remember them being kind of pricey and so far they only got me just over a year and a half or so.

I wear XL in other gloves, but the XXL Astars SPS fit great. I would go one size up if I were you.

I have a pair of the perforated Pursuit gloves in black and highly recommend them. I like the clean, uncluttered look and the perforations keep me comfortable in the heat. The gloves snap together when not in use - that part I really like. Been using them for about a month and they've held up pretty well.

A little late, but just to add more input for anyone else: I've had my pair for close to 3 years now, love 'em. I have big hands and long fingers, 2XL fits perfectly, and they're plenty comfortable in temperatures ranging from 40 - 100 °F.

I have a pair as well. They have held up well for over a year. Not very good in the winter though

I have considered a pair of the "stealth" as well. The non-perforated verision.
