Five Globe Gloves Item # 609870
Description
The universal glove with protective shells.
The Globe provides the minimum essential protection you need for any two-wheeled activity (motorbike, scooter, bicycle). Its basic nature makes it pleasant to wear, and it has rapidly become the benchmark basic, universal glove. It comes in black, for the classicists among us, and in graphical Globe Replica versions for bolder riders. Lightweight, but still including PU protective shells on the topside and the palm, it offers a satisfying balance between enjoyable wear and safety. This is a simple, practical, and ultra-affordable glove.
Features:
- Polymesh™ construction (topside) for comfort/synthetic leather (palm) for durability
- One-piece PU metacarpal-knuckle and knuckle protection underneath the fabric
- TPR protective palm slider shell
- Synthetic leather hypothenar muscle reinforcement
- Lycra® fourchettes for optimal fit
- Airprene cuff for adjustment, comfort, and ventilation
- Closure system with TPR tab + Velcro and synthetic leather on-off pull tab

Solid Glove - Great Value
Lets just start by saying this is a budget glove by a dedicated glove company - so its better than most other $50 gloves.
Pros - Comfort - first time I slid it on I thought there was no armour in it - but the knuckle armour is substantial! So yea it is very comfy. Fingers fit well and the wrist slider is an added bonus you dont find at this price point. (Honestly that's why I bought these).
Padding and vibration dampening was noticeably better then my admitted old work out pair.
Cons -
Hot. These are NOT summer gloves. above 22C and you will get sweaty. Ventilation is nil.
Palm protection seems thin, documentation says its there, but idk how well that would do in a slide. No extra sections of padding or anything
Fit is perfect, I wear a small and it fit perfectly.
Still a great value if not a perfect glove. Highly recommended for a cool weather glove, or spare. or for pillions to throw on.

Super comfortable - Decent Protection
Bought these for my wife, as she has had a hard time finding gloves that are comfy for her. These are extremely comfortable, light and thin material. The knuckle protection is unnoticeable while wearing it too. Very flexible.
The slider is a great feature - thanks F9 for the tips on Five gloves (see their video on basic gear you need).
Palm sliding seems like it could be better. The booklet said 3 seconds...not sure at what speed but I'm not sure how well it would do. Hopefully I will never know.
She wears a small and the small fit perfect.
