Craft Bike Weather Glove Review

Whilst the quality of materials used and indeed the finishing, fit (snug) and feel of these gloves is excellent, i feel the design could be better. I believe they are somewhat compromised because the two materials used - the elastic material used on the back of the glove does not work well with the non-elastic grippy/padded palm side material. For me at least, the gloves would have been better if the material used on the palm side had been panelled onto a glove made wholly of the elasticated material (like seal skinz and nike gloves i have owned). As it is, the non elasticity of the palm results in crumpling when you grip the bars. One plus of this palm material is that if like me you have a habit of cleaning your tyres whist riding in winter/wet conditions, they will wear longer. The thermal properties of the glove are good though, offering good protection without suffocating the hands. Overall, if half stars existed they would be closer to 4 than 2....
