    The remedy gloves look like what I'm after, what are they like? Any one use them?

    I wrote some lengthy feedback to Giro on them because

    they were the best, comfiest, gloves I had ever used with a bit of knuckle protection (I'm always picking thorns out of my knuckles otherwise)..

    … but the palm let me down. It's pittards leather and went dry and shrunken too quickly.

    I've still just bought some more though.

    Got the rivets, whilst the fit is as good as i've used, the seams are coming apart. Fox sidewinders are far far more durable IMO.

    Great fit but the silicone on the fingers rubbed off after a few rides on mine. Still wear them though.

    Hmmm, generally favourable, but a bit of a mixed bag then really. Thanks chaps.

    Jon T – The knuckle thing is exactly my requirements – Interesting thing on the Palms though. I've never had any trouble with pittards on other brands.

    Had some Xens. They came apart at the seams after a couple of months. Would not recommend.

    Bought some Rivets back in June, they are beginning to come apart at the seams already. (they have probably done about 1000 miles all in). Should have got some Gore Alp X instead. The Giro gloves are very comfy however but just don't seem to last.

    Got some Xens. Cripplingly uncomfortable on the first ride, then have been OK.

    Have gone through both thumb tips after about 6 rides.

    Nice and airy, but could do better.

    I went with some TLD's in the end. I know they fit and last!

    Its pretty amazing!

    I'd darned the other ones at least 5 times. 😯 😆

    These ones should smell better too…

    I bought a pair of Rivet gloves and the stitching only lasted 4 weeks before it came apart 😕

    Bit disappointed as I've always thought of Giro as being a quality brand.

    Oh yes, the stitching broke on mine too (ok there wasn't enough material, which broke; the stitching was ok).

    The fingers lasted better than me 661's though.
