Pearl Izumi Gloves

Just wondering if anyone has tried them, i know their clothes are top of the line.

Do you think they will stand up to the wear and tear of trials or are they aimed at XC rider's i don't really know. But i'm due a new set as I've killed my fox one and my raceface one's...

Well firstly it depends what PI gloves you're talking about. Secondly its a good bet to just try them out. I use XC gloves generally (and have used Specialized, Troy Lee, Fox, Raceface, Thor, THE, Fly, 661 in the past) and some are better than others but none were total shit and none were way better than the rest. I usually find either the stitching or mesh around the fingers breaks through first, or the terry cloth sweat wipe on the thumb can wear through.

I've also used Hebos, Try-Alls and Mechanix gloves, Hebos being my favorite of those 3. Mechanix were really tough but I miss having a sweat wipe section and did't fit me as well as the Hebos. Try-alls were pretty average.

They may fit you really well, but other people don't get on with them. Maybe look at some women specific ones?

Have already decided to give them a bash! They are women's ones, just that i have tried some expensive ones like these with a gel insert and i poped them and they fell apart from that point on. Just wanted to see if anyone had a bad review about them.
