Great gloves
I love these. Wore them all winter.
I read another review here that said they dont work under $20. Of course they dont! They are not made to do that.
What they do is keep your hands dry and protected from the wind. I wore these in 30 degrees and snow and they were just fine.
Pros: Comfort. easy to get on/off
color! see these a mile away
Cons: None yet, but like all gloves - I wonder what a second season will bring. My last PI gloves started to come apart, but that was after a cx season...
Would Buy Again: Yes

Yes No Report as InappropriateJust not cut out for a Chicago Winter
I bought these as an avid user of other Izumi clothing, I have some baselayers and jackets that I love. I figured I would try out their cyclone gloves for the Chicago Winter. When the temperatures started dipping to about 20-30, the gloves worked pretty well but I would definitely feel the chill in the tips of my fingers. But when the temps dropped below 20, I couldn't take it anymore. I bought the Izumi glove liners too and it still doesn't keep my hands warm. I unfortunately have to keep these for late Fall/early Spring because they don't hold up to harsh Winters. I would give these gloves a higher rating if they weren't marketed for cold weather gloves.
Pros: The look and feel great on the hands, nice padding and reflective quality with the yellow.
Cons: Can't handle anything near 20 degrees or below.
Would Buy Again: No
Would Recommend: No
