Need some summer long finger gloves, and these are looking appealing:

I don't have much experience with Royal clothing, so any opinions most welcome before I order!

Thanks.

it's good stuff, always ride in their race shorts and have a couple of race long sleevers too. Gloves wise the fingers are 'slightly' long compared to say Fox.

Also Peaty part owns Royal I think.

Nice kit, got shorts, tops, gloves by them, sometimes the build quality not the best though. Got some Royal gloves and they've been great, thumb has popped through now after a years use. Recommended.

For anyone that gives a monkeys, I bought them and they're brilliant summer gloves (so far). Much better than my old 661 Raji.

Do they have a nice thin palm that doesn't bunch up?

Nice thin palm. If I clench my fist off the bike it does bunch, but on the handlebar I don't notice any bunching. Sides of the fingers are vented too, so if you get hot just splay yer fingers.
