Review 1 for Sombrio Sultan Long Finger Cycling Gloves
Overall:
Birdy
Date:April 17, 2011
Poor Quality
Pros: Attractive
Cons: Poor Quality, Wears Out Easily, Poor Fit
"Iv been using these for half road riding half XC riding and have had them for nearly 2 months now;
Pros; In my opinion they look good and they are also well ventilated so good for hot weather if you prefer long fingers.
Cons; The stitching quality is very poor. The seam between the ventilation mesh and the thicker palm material on my pair is splitting in more than one place now, and they are not even two months old. This is probably due to them being quite tight in some areas, however they are unnecessarily baggy in others, so getting the next size up is not an option. The poor fit also gives them little feel and confidence.
Pretty disappointed with these overall."

Pros: Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable
"Good quality grippy gloves, perfect for spring / summer rides and an alternative to fingerless gloves. Good ventilation so hands don get too warm whilst still offering some protection. Look forward to wearing them more as the summer approaches. Also reduced when i purchased them so very good value."

Value for money...
Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, Lightweight, Good Fit
"This was the first time I had tried bib shorts, so i thought I would take advantage of the low price for these and checkout whether they were suitable.
I'm wrapped to say not only am I sold on wearing bib shorts in the future, but the wiggle brand has exceeded my expectations immensely.
Fantastic value for money even when they are NOT on special, but when this happens you can be sure I will get more!!!!!!"

Pretty Average
Pros: Attractive, Comfortable, Lightweight, Good Fit
Cons: Expensive, Low Quality, Wears Out Easily
"Bought these gloves for summer, they are a pretty good glove, do exactly what they on the tin. Keep your hands very cool, don't really slip around or stretch. However they are not very durable, after only a couple long rides already had a rip on the right middle finger at the seam, so was a bit disappointed with that.
I'd say an average general purpose summer glove, but i think you can get a lot more for your money at that price."

Really impressive
"Great pair of gloves, no adjustment but they're a perfect fit, just warm enough for early spring roadwork and tough enough for mountain biking, really good gloves, I'm buying another pair"

Cheap gloves
"Bought these for hot weather rides and commutes and they are suitable for these temperatures as they are quite thin material, but they also feel too cheap and not that durable.
The fingers are not a very good cut and for a thin glove dont give that much comfort and dexterity
Also abit hard to get on as they just have elastic cuff and no velcro opening, which does help reduce profile but those with big mitts might take some extra time with fear of possibly ripping them.
nice look once on, but not the most grippy palms and no chamois on thumb ect."

Pros: Comfortable, Good Fit, Great Value, High Quality, Lightweight
Cons: Unadjustable
"Great fit. Really comfortable out riding. Just the right balance between keeping my fingers warm, but not too warm. Step-son (aged 4) thinks they look like Spiderman gloves!"

A great glove
Pros: Comfortable, Good Fit, Great Value, Lightweight
Cons: Unadjustable
"Perfect lightweight glove for Australian riding up here in the heat in Queensland. Thin mesh upper keeps the hands cool. Great snug fit as well. Can be alittle awkward to get on with the snug fit but this also means they won't slip down. Wish the palm was precurved to allow more comfortable fit on bars when riding."

Comfortable Gloves
Pros: Comfortable, Lightweight
"I was looking for a thin pair of gloves for autumn and spring riding. When I ordered them I was not sure if these would work, however they are great. The feel thin but protect your hands and keep my hands a comfortable temperature. I am already thinking about buying another pair so I have a pair to use while one pair is bing washed."

Pros: Comfortable, Good Fit, Lightweight
Cons: design
"The one gripe with winter gloves is that if you use a Shimano Flightdeck Computer it is very difficult to operate the little buttons on the STI hoods. These gloves however are a good snug fit and still allow easy use of said buttons. They are breathable and would recommend them for Spring / Autumn. The one negative comment is that the gloves are not long enough so that they do not go far enough up your wrist which is noticeable when riding into a headwind / descending as your wrists tend to feel the chill."
