Some pretty keen prices on gloves on Planet X, are they any good?

I thought they'd stopped them?

My brother swore by them especially for the price.

Got a pair delivered last week, the large are a bit tighter than I'm used to, stretchy though.

Flanders ones are great. As are some others by them I don't know the name of.

What he said. Awesome gloves.

Used them for road, XC and DH and they're spot on for anything but freezing weather.

Got a bit of space in them which helps them stay warm and dry quickly I think.

I got some flander, sized up going by their chart and still too small. Have torn some stitching due to stretching them.. I 've found them perferctly usable down to the low temperatures (I've sealskins gloves for this range), & would buy again though but go up 2 sizes!

Dear god, just realised with these, my Bell badger stripe helmet and new vaude (B&W) backpack, I've almost got a matching outfit... NOOOOOOOO!!

I like the Flanders gloves, cracking early spring/late autumn gloves. Their classic track mitts are pretty good as well for road bike use.

Flanders gloves are good in the dry. Awful at the slightest hint of moisture though as they soak through immediately and your hands freeze. A good glove for dry days in autumn/spring - c 5-12 deg imo.
