Highly recommend for motorcycle use
I purchased these gloves for motorcycle use. Before the HWI Duty Glove I would go through a pair of gloves once a year. My motorcycle is the only vehicle I own, so having the right gear for practical use and comfort is important to me. The HWI glove holds up extremely well, better than any other glove I've owned in the past 30 years. The first pair is a 1 1/2 years old get used daily in all weather conditions. They've been soaked with rain and dried out numerous times and still show absolutely no signs of wear.This is a tight fitting glove, but gradually stretches over time to fit perfectly. I bought a second pair - not because the first wore out, but because I was afraid I wouldn't be able to find them again if it did.I have average sized hands and purchased a medium. When I first tried them on I thought I may have to return for a larger size, but given the gradual stretch and the now perfect fit, I'm glad I didn't. It took a while to get used to the low fit at the wrist but these gloves are exactly what I needed. They're tight fitting enough I can still do things I used to have to remove my gloves to do from zipping my jacket, strapping my helmet or adjusting my fuel screw while riding.

These are VERY nice gloves although a little thicker than I anticipated
These are VERY nice gloves although a little thicker than I anticipated. Turns out I'm on the small size of large rather than the large side of medium per their sizing, so I'm exchanging my pair for one size up. Only reason they dont get 5 stars is because they're thicker than the description wants you to believe... still perfectly practical for pat-downs, daily duty use etc, maybe not so much for shooting.

Way too small - sizes run very small
I have worn Mediums my whole career with no problems. I first bought a pair of smalls for my wife, which is her size but she couldn't get her hands into them. So I returned them with no hassle (thank you) and got these Mediums. She complained that they were too tight and she could not get them on comfortably. I said "no problem, I'll break them in for you" but I cannot get my hands into them at all and I do wear mediums. The two samples of this brand have both been significantly undersized. I'm tempted to order a Large size for her but I think two tries enough.

I get these gloves a size smaller than normal for work and shooting.
I wear these gloves on a daily bases for my repair and remodeling business. While using a circular saw, the blade hit a nail in a wall stud, kicked back and hit my gloved hand. These Kevlar lined leather gloves saved me from loosing two fingers.

Fits Like a Glove, Velcro Position Needs to be Swapped
These do fit tightly. However the leather will stretch with use. The Velcro should be swapped between the bristle side and wool side. The bristle side is exposed and catches on most fabric around one's wrist. Competitively priced at $35/ea for the leather/kevlar combination. For my purpose, I needed a pair which were both protective and fit tightly. You can find plenty of reinforced bulky gloves. This one works like a slim glove enabling more dexterity. There is no touchscreen capability.

Runs small but good Motorcycle Glove
These gloves seem to run small, especially when it comes to finger length. I wear a medium everything and have ordered these gloves in both medium and large. The medium gloves are nice once they break in but the finger length is still a little short. The large gloves are thicker than the medium and you lose some dexterity and they are a little too big (I'm not taking a star off for this since I may be in-between sizes). Soak them in warm water and put them on and stretch them out for a good fit. Beware that these gloves do bleed the coloring dye so wear latex gloves under that if you don't want blue and purple hands!I use these gloves for motorcycle riding and having the Kevlar inside the glove is a nice touch that adds to the durability.I'm taking one star off because of the short finger length and because they are not touch screen. Everything nowadays seems to have some sort of touch feature and having a pair of gloves with this feature would be nice.

Great, if Velcro was better.
These are super comfortable. Still new but fit great. Only draw back thus far is the Velcro for the closure. Already having issues with the Velcro not closing right due to wearing out/fraying. Due to the leather, the smart phone doesn't notice when trying to swipe the screen.

Great Gloves
High-quality product. It looks just like the picture; it's not too shiny or matte black.The left glove I received had a slight defect. There was a small indentation and a scrape on the back of the glove. It almost looked like a screwdriver tip had scraped it and almost punctured it. It wasn't a hole, and it wasn't too noticeable. I still gave the product five stars because they are good gloves and real leather. Real leather is bound to have some minor flaws or be priced way higher.

I like these gloves
I like these gloves. The leather is supple and the shape is form-fitting, with a craftsmanship among the best in this price range. If I have to nit-pick, there are two issues with the pair I received. First, the sizing is not perfectly equal between each glove. The difference is not enough that someone else would notice, but if you held up your hands next to each other, you'd see one pinkie is tight, whereas the other is baggy for example. The second issue is that when the hand is held open, the seam of the thumb ends up right on the middle of the "touch" area of the thumb, rather than on the side where I think it should be. This has to do with the cut and design of the glove, so it's not a manufacturing issue. Overall I'm satisfied and hope this pair lasts me a while.

I Adhore these gloves
These gloves look great and fit great. I had to wait a long time for large to be in stock. I have smaller hands but medium way to small. Large fits like a glove.

Would never buy those gloves again, the Kevlar inside ...
Would never buy those gloves again, the Kevlar inside is basically non excistant and the leather is so thin I will not last 2 months, will go back to my old supplier next time for cheaper and 10 times the quality
