I have worn the same pair of gloves for 4 years and it was finally time for a new pair. After reading a bunch of positive reviews I decided to give the Ciao Bella gloves a try. They arrived quickly and were very comfortable when I tried them on after unboxing. However, I took them on their first ride today and I was decently uncomfortable the whole time. The knuckle armor slid/moved each time I squeezed my clutch or twisted the throttle. At the end of two hours I had red sores on the tops of my knuckles on both hands. I’m not sure if it’s a sizing issue or if my hand anatomy is just wrong for this glove. The color was also rubbing off the palm of the gloves by the time I made it home.
I was so optimistic and excited for these gloves, but unfortunately they just weren’t a great fit for me.
