Good quality snug unlined leather glove
I used a similar style glove in a previous job, this style usually need to be snug, thin, unlined, comfortable with as minimal possible loss of touch or feel through the glove and these fit the bill. I currently use them for just cool or cold weather to wear while driving or outside in general. The gloves are not lined so I wouldn’t say they are shoveling gloves but they are thin, durable and still keep the hands warm while living in a cold weather environment. A lot of times this style of glove fits snugly as intended but have too much length in the fingers so the fit and feel strange, but this brand seem to be sized correctly in the finger length as well, so they are worth the price.

Great for cashiering!
I got these in a 7.5/Small, which turned out to be too big for me. However, I am not experienced measuring myself for gloves, and am between 7" and 7.5" around the knuckles, so the fact that I need to size down is, in my mind, in no way a reflection on the sizing itself. I would say they are true to size, and it was a 'me problem'! Other than the gloves are PHENOMINAL. They are thin enough to use a touch screen (maybe turn up your sensitivity is all), VERY well constructed, and fit incredibly well--which is saying something, as my wrists are small and I have very long, slim, marfanoid type hands and fingers. I got these to protect my skin while cashiering and they did work really well for the day that I tried them out, before realising they were a size too big. They do leave black on your nails but I don't really consider this a flaw, as its pretty typical of any dyed leather. They are very soft, and very warm! I did not expect them to be so warm, but I was out in 25F windy minnesota morning and my hands did not feel cold at all!! That's saying something, because I always have cold hands! I am planning on returning and exchanging these for the correct size, and am overall splendiferously happy to have found a brand that carries my size in gloves!

Tight fit
Incredibly small opening for XL and tight overall. It's a nice glove and the leather/workmanship seems high quality. I have big hands but XL is usually fine. It took me 20 seconds to put on each glove and about the same to take off each glove and it wasn't easy. It's a struggle with pulling an pushing all around the hand and wrist and snug when finally on. I think I pulled a muscle in my thumb and back trying to get them on. I would recommend 2 sizes up. The price is right. I may order another set 2 sizes up and will regift the current pair.

These run VERY small. Order up at least one size
Went to the manufacturers web site to use THEIR instructions for measuring hand size.Because the Amazon ad fails to display any size chart, despite instructing you to use it for sizing.My hand size was exactly in the middle of the “Medium” range stated in the size chart.Could not even get the glove on, much less find it was juts uncomfortable snug once on.DEFINITELY order a size larger than what your hand measures. Even if measured EXACTLY as the depict.

Snug fit and feels like a second skin.
These gloves are absolutely amazing! I was on the edge of getting a large but decided on medium. They fit so well and tight. My hands didn't get hot after wearing them my entire 12 hr shift at my security job. I am able to use the phone and manipulate small objects with ease. These are going to be my warm weather gloves. Highly recommend.

Okay for the price
Overall, the gloves are pretty good with good materials, look good and are sufficiently thin, They may be slightly undersized as the size medium were very tight and difficult to pull on. Right glove much worse than the left. The fit of the finger lengths was a mixed bag. The thumb and forefinger on both gloves fit perfectly, but the middle, ring and little fingers were about 1/2" too long on both gloves. A lot of pulling downward on those fingers got them to a closer fit but left some room at the end of the fingers. For a law enforcement officer using these gloves for body search, he had better be able to do it with one finger and one thumb (per glove). Perhaps the length of my fingers are an anatomical aberration, otherwise the gloves are just not cut right. Would not recommend unless the issues I have cited are unimportant to the prospective buyer.

Really nice light weight gloves !
I didn't purchase these gloves expecting warmth...I live in SW Florida and wanted some hand protection from sun but mostly wanted better grip on the hand controls . These gloves exceeded my expectations . They fit almost like a second skin and , so far , are wearing like iron . I've gotten many compliments on them as well as friends asking where I purchased them from . I've re-ordered these gloves four times so far to accommodate my riding buddies (they all repaid me) and , to a man , they all love these gloves as much as I do . These appear to be quite well made , are wearing well and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them highly . Just remember that these are not for warmth but only to afford some modest hand protection and to provide better grip . In my opinion , this purchase was money well spent !***A quick update.....I had ordered another pair of these gloves for a riding buddy and upon arrival found them to be defective (first time I've had a problem) . The return was taken care of within a matter of a few days . These gloves , IMO , are great and the vendor definitely stands behind what they sell .
