fit
These are what gloves should be like because the fit surrounds the bars at the perfect locations where the padding is needed i.e. the grip is sublime. The gel is not squishy like others I have had. The soft wipe thumb area is like velvet to the face. The material is soft yet feels secure and the stitching is strong but not noticeable to the touch. Only drawback is that I would like to have a slightly more solid wrist closure only because I worry that in time the velcro catch may become worn and for me I can't afford to buy this level of a glove every year. Lastly the Castelli logo appears to be affixed so that it won't rub off quickly; and come on now it is CASTELLI, and you wan't to show that SCORPION off to everyone in the peloton. lol
