These are basic and fairly thin and simple gloves. I wouldn't want to crash in them, but they would be 1000 times better than crashing with bare hands. The palms and inside fingers are nice soft leather, but a little on the thin side. There's some TPU padding for the knuckles, and the rest of the back is just fabric. They are breathable for warm weather. I usually wear heavier gloves that offer more protection, but these are a great option for low-risk riding and for weather too hot for normal gloves.
The leather is soft, a bit thin, and slippery when new. These aren't premium and they aren't super tough, but they are a good value. There is some very tiny padding on the palm, which helps a tiny bit for hand numbness.
Sizing runs a little small. I can wear 2XL in other Joe Rocket gloves and XL or 2XL in most other brands. I bought 3XL for these based on earlier comments and it's about right - tiny bit loose, but I doubt 2XL would fit at all.

The clip is nice.
The gloves come packaged as a retail pack clipped to a cardboard for hanging. The clip is quite strong and should work well as a positive, fumble resistant way to keep them together.The pair I received fit just fine and seem very flexible. The wrist could be about an inch longer as the base of the velcro strap pokes into the hollow at the base of my thumb. That strap looks like an afterthought anyway. I will probably not use it, or possibly just make a replacement because they do feel fine to me.As a protective device, I'll go with another reviewer in that it looks good for road debris but in a fall, you might save one half to one degree of injury over bare hands.Yes, the dye is bleeding off even after a half hour of wear. We'll see how long that lasts. BTW the instructions say do not wash. Anyway, they'll do for casual riding but they're a far cry from my last pair of Rocket gloves from 2006.

Las costuras se ven firmes y los detalles de acabos muy buenos, las sección para usar pantalla touchscreen me a funcionado muy bien pero esto depende mas del dispositivo ya que probé con otro teléfono diferente al personal y la respuesta fue mala .
Son un buena elección resta ver la durabilidad a largo plazo
