Disappointed
I bought these along with a pair of the Parado riding jeans. The jeans are great. I literally just received them. The gloves however are a disappointment in the quality of craftsmanship. On a good note they look great and are overall comfortable. I wear XL gloves normally but the other review on here said they fit small so I ordered the XXL. Good thing, the wrist opening is quite tight. I could barely get my hand in. Once in though it is a pretty nice fit. The small secondary velcro strap under the wrist is so short it can't be done up when the glove is on. It isn't long enough to reach the buckle to feed through, let alone pull back on itself to secure. Not sure what the point is. With the main wrist velcro, the small one is not necessary anyway.
Once you manage to get your hand in, on both gloves the fingers are the right length for 3 of my 4 fingers, but the pinky fingers are about .5" to long and on the left hand the pinky is sewn on almost sideways.
The thumb on the left hand is perfect and round at the tip.
On the right, the thumb is sewn virtually straight across with a slight downward angle so the internal stitching rubs the tip of the thumb.
I ride virtually daily and anticipated having these gloves for a big ride this weekend but now I have to decide do I send them back and hope I get a better built pair in another 2 weeks or just get a refund.
It is really too bad because the jeans are top notch. I love the look and style of the gloves but the quality of the build is underwhelming.
I can't comment on the airflow or breathability as I likely won't have the opportunity to try them.

Nice gloves, but beware the European sizing
Quality control comment 1st: I've had F9 send me 2 pairs of these in different sizes. The 1st pair had a rip in a seam near the Trilobite tag. The 2nd had some of the velcro exposed inside the glove which poked sharply at my wrist. Also, the fingers don't seem to be sewn equivalently, some look more rotated than others, but probably wouldn't affect usability.
The main issue is size. Using Trilobite's measure guide, they say I'm a small - well that glove I simply could not get my hand in past the wrist!! Ok, upsize to a medium. Now the palm fits beautifully - but the fingers leave me with upto 2 cm of flop on the pinky! And plenty of slop on all others. It's so bad, the 2 fingers that are touch screen ready are not useable for that because my fingertips don't reach the special material!
Apparently euro fit vs American fit applies quite well here. Which is too bad because they are a rather nice looking and featured glove.

Good gloves, quite warm for early spring riding and still fairly breathable, and very comfortable to wear on long rides, though some things to note, maybe good, maybe bad.
-fits tight to get your hands in with longer than average fingers
-two velcro straps per glove
-hard plastic knuckles, but only slightly stiff foam palm slider
