Do you mean weight-wise or warmth-wise?

Pretty sure he's asking about heat weight not pounds weight.

Just picked up a pair myself, excited to try them out!

I have had plenty of people wear them through the TX summer with no complaints.

Well that's a lot more difficult to measure.

The last pair of gloves I had which I really liked were some old Diadoras with, I think, kangaroo leather palms. They were used when I got 'em, so I don't know what size they are/were, but now they are toast.

This is a good general guide for gloves.

Yes - they look too warm. I could give a hoot about +/- 5 grams of weight. Sheesh! I'm wondering about breathability and there doesn't look like there's much absorbent material to wipe away sweat.
Hey - they look like nice gloves, just may not be my cup of tea for a hot, sweaty day.

My hands are a tiny bit over 9" in circumference, and I needed the XL's. I couldn't get the Large size on.

I ordered L and XL. Hopefully the large fit. I planned a head a little bit just in case.

Will you make a full finger version at any point?

They are all leather. No special snot wipers or anything like that. If that's what people want then there are plenty of others out there that fit the bill.

I can say that I have had zero complaints about them being too hot. This is from a full summer of testing in TX and Nevada and Arizona and California and Lord knows where else. The vent holes in the fingers help more than you would think.

All that said, they are not for everyone. Esp from an aesthetic stand point. I'm fine with that.

The Cuero's are in line with that chart. Thanks for posting that.

Yes. Definitely. But the design will be slightly different . And I need my vendor issues squared away first.

Wore them the entire Texas summer last year and had no issues and they didn't feel water logged when I road them...Really dig the gloves. I am rough on them (don't treat them)...and like them the longer I have them. Like the patina on them as they've aged.

Would/Will buy again.

Handlebra opened my eye to premium leather product on bikes...and they (well made stuff like Ray's and J's) is worth the price of admission (at retail). At this price point for J's samples...this is a no brainer, even for someone trying to decide if it's for them.

Very cool. I have some old Knog gloves that need replacing.
