Drystar is not goretex
Gloves won’t breathe and make hand sweat in warm weather. Rain soaked through in about 40 minutes.

7 hours rain - damp hands - ok with heated grips
I recently rode in the rain for 7 hours with this glove. I would say my hands ended up still a bit damp. If you demand super dry hands, this won't do it. But I wasn't too disappointed. With heated grips my hands never got cold during the trip, so I was pretty pleased. Not 4 or 5 star rain protection though.

Not recommended to buy
Poor quality wearing out after a 3 day ride no rain or water exposure just riding.

The stench is disgusting
Not sure exactly what it is, the material or chemicals used to treat it but these things stink. Hands sweat and end up stinking as well. Currently doing what I can to combat the smell but I don't have much faith it will improve. These gloves just don't breathe at all.

Fix the finger length issue and it would be a win
Nice looking glove, a bit warm on hot days. Fingers are a bit long unlike other Alpinstar gloves I own.

These are nice!
These fit my hand so much better than my last gloves and also the sizing guide was pretty accurate. The only thing I can say is the fingers are slightly long but overall very nice gloves.

Day one, not great
Just bought these and firstly the shipping is incredibly fast! Wore them today and not pumped on them yet. Had to work had to grip the bars first ride and hand was tired afterwards. Hoping these will soften up with a couple of uses. Also, the fingers are long as many other people noted. They look solid and well built. I want to like them and hopefully they will brake in nicely. I'll report back
