We've long ridden with the mantra 'if it ain't broken don't fix it,' and while we think this saying holds a lot of water in quite a few areas, we admit that it has its shortcomings. For example, if the designers at Pearl Izumi carried on with this mantra we wouldn't receive the generous updates we didn't even know we'd want in the Elite Gel Full-Finger Gloves. These gloves provide tactile grip, and new 3D shaped pads that reduce bulk for a streamlined fit, which pairs with new 4-way stretch synthetic palms for total comfort.

I?ve used PI gloves more than other brands for decades. Because of that, I expected to need XL to fit my fairly long fingers. The size chart only uses hand width and going by that I?d need M. I went with XL and glad I did as my fingers reach the ends. Also at my wrist (I?m thin) the closures only go about halfway. There?s no way I?d fit in M. I haven?t had them out on the bike yet but they are comfortable and the touch screen feature works. They are very similar in the functional parts as the PI ones they will replace. The disappointment is the design and quality is not up to old PI standards. These are far less well made than my last pair of the same basic thing (probably 5 yrs old). The wrist closures are thin and flimsy with Velcro sewn loosely to the fabric. I can tell that?s going to fail after not long. I?ll get the intended use out of these but I?m sure I?ll be glove shopping again pretty soon. Not good PI, you used to make high quality products that lasted a long time and were worth a bit extra cash. These aren?t.
