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

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

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
