3/5

It wasn't bad.

I had been using SP-8 for many years and it was getting tired, so I decided to buy SP-8 next time.
Minor changes have been made to the design, etc., and a wrist-stopping band has been added for a more fit feel.
It was a good impression.

… but the stitching on the index finger of the Right hand is distorted and the sensitivity of the phone Touch is significantly poor, so I asked for a replacement.
I think the sewing in this area is better handled in the old version.

The product was found to be defective, but there was no replacement in stock, so it was returned Gold.
Perhaps it is an individual difference, but it is unfortunate. View detail

A little fancy.

I was using FOX RACING Bomber Gloves for summer gloves.
It was so worn out that I decided to replace it.
Bomber Gloves, the price seems to have gone up a lot, so I decided to go with this one, which is a little cheaper.

This is my first Alpinestars product, though,
As for the appearance, Quantity:Pair (for Left and Right) Asimen Birdoo and flashy,
I bought it because I thought the fluorescent color would match Motorcycle's insert color,
When it comes down to it, I sometimes find the color inserts in my field of vision while driving a bit depressing, I guess I'll get used to it.

As for the fit, the tip of the index finger is made of a different Material because it is compatible with smartphones!
The sewn part is on the inside, but I felt that the feeling of the sewn part hitting my fingers was not quite right. View detail

No real smart phone Touch available.

The phone Touch is very unresponsive.
The index finger is very unresponsive except on the side of the thumb, so although it sometimes responds with the tip of the finger or the belly of the finger, it cannot be operated as expected. It is almost always a misoperation.
I think this is unique to this product as it works normally with other Alpinestars gloves.

I am satisfied with the fit and design. View detail

Size is Small.

As mentioned in the title, it is small in size.
However, in my case, I am not happy with the fact that the Small fingers have about 1 cm extra.
The fit is tight, but I expect it to get more comfortable in my hand every time I use it.
The design is AlpineStar, which I think is cool. View detail

The phone is not Pinch operable!

[For smartphones]
The index finger has a material for touch screen and can be used for smartphone operation.

When I received the product and tried it on to check the feel of the phone, I found that Pinch In/Out was not working.
I noticed that I can't do it. (I don't have a phone compatible Material on my thumb)
I am sorry but I had to return it because it was free to return.
I use GoogleMap a lot for touring, so not being able to PinchOut is a problem.

You should check the operation of the application you plan to use before ordering.

The design is Simple and Parenthesis is good, but …. View detail

The design is fantastic!

Purchased as Gloves for spring and summer, compared to FIVE and Alpinestars Leather Gloves.
The size is L for FIVE and Alpinestars, and XL for KUSHITANI, but I have no problem with L size. The fingertips are wide, but there is quite a bit of room. When I apply brake strongly and slide my finger to release, I feel a little uneasy because the feeling of control is not so good. Well, it should not be used for aggressive use.
However, it is highly designable and would be an option if you are considering a codec. Especially for those of you who like the "DSL" Logo! View detail

It is for spring and summer.

I am replacing my spring/summer gloves and my main use is touring.
I tried on a pair at a real store and was attracted to the fit and the design that was not too assertive.
When I tried it on, it didn't bother me too much, but when I tried it on, I was really bothered by the lining, where the index finger meets the sewing. If I don't care about it, it doesn't affect me at all, but if I start to care about it, it bothers me anyway. It's only on the Right side, so I guess it's an individual difference.
I turned it inside out and cut off the part that hit it.
I'm okay with it because I don't mind it anymore as I use it and get used to it. View detail

Perfect for summer commutes!

It is made of cool Material, so it is good for summer commute etc.
The phone has a Material that you touch, but it's on the tip of your finger.
For some reason my Iphone is not responding and I have to take off my Gloves.
The Protector itself is the outer Material:Plastic mono is available, but we feel it is inadequate, so we have made it ideal for commuting to and from work. View detail

Size is a little smaller than other products.

I switched from Alpinestars GP Plus V2 to these Gloves.
I used to use the GP Plus one in LSize, but when I bought this one in LSize, my wrist was too narrow.
When wearing a racing suit, it is tight.
I think I have thin wrists, but perhaps I should have gone with the LL.
The phone responded. View detail

Ideal for spring and summer use

I bought these for spring and summer and they look great and fit well.
It is breathable and not that hot.
However, after about 9000 km of use, the index finger of the Left hand (exactly where the Clutch hits) has been torn.
I thought it would be better if it could be used a little longer.
The Magic tape has become weaker and almost unstoppable towards the end, so it would be nice if that could be improved as well. View detail

Suitable for people with thin hands

Was the one you received as per Image?
It was as per Image, but I ordered the wrong color...
This is common in mail order, so be careful.

[How did you feel about the Fit?
The length of the fingers is just right, but the thickness and palm area is a bit tight. I thought my hands were rather slender, so I was a little shocked.
When I return home after a day of touring, I can see the Glove marks on my hands.

How was your experience with it?
It's tight, so if you keep using it for a long time, it will start to hurt a bit.
I'd like a little more room.

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
If you put your hand in it, it will sting all over the place and be uncomfortable. I think it's a matter of the material used and the treatment of the seams and such, although I may be too sensitive.
If I buy one Large Threshold Size and use Inner Gloves together, I can use it comfortably.

What are the specs of the product, such as protector?
Material on Knuckle:The Protector is a hard resin of Carbon Style, and there is a pad of leather on the palm of the hand that seems to stick to the hand immediately when it falls.
The fingertips and the back of the hand have a lot of Mesh, and the leather part has Punching.

How did it compare to other products?
I like the design that the wrist part is neat and thin, and the one that I tried on was not bad, and I chose it because it was comparatively inexpensive, but when I use it for a long time, such as overnight touring, I use RS-C of FIVE that I had until now and the size was a little too large.

The design and other looks are very good, but it's not very comfortable to wear …

It looks great, and when I use it, every part of the lining hurts against the back of my hand. Maybe that's because I'm just starting to use it, but honestly, it hurts so much that I'm wondering if my hand is getting cut on the inside. I'd like to think so.
But I like the logo and the look of Alpinestars, so I'm just going to put up with it and use it. Yes. View detail

Small, hard

It was a M size on SizeChart, so I bought a L
It's still Smallish
I was acutely aware that the Italian product needs to be raised 2 sizes

Unsatisfied with Size table

I purchased M Size along SizeChart, but the finger length was not enough at all
I tried using it trying to endure until I stretched hard but the nail breaks.
SizeChart seems to be fatal if there is only Size of Size and there is no Size notation concerning length.
I think that this is not information on Pine side rather than Uebi, but ...

For the time being, from the next time I learned to buy 1 to 2 Size Large Yeah
I've paid Gold for a very high price ...
Design likes Large, but ...

Oh, I still sang it as Air but it's not cool at all.. It's super hot. View detail
