Pearl Izumi Elite Gel Vent Glove

Non-gel gloves leave your hands feeling numb but gelled gloves give you sweaty-palm syndrome while you ride. Pearl Izumi understands and it made the Elite Gel Vent Bike Glove with vented gel pads. These gloves absorb vibration and allow hot air to escape. The U-bridge design alleviates nerve pressure on long training missions while an antibacterial bamboo palm lining wicks moisture. Pearl Izumi finishes the outside of this glove with a soft leather palm and a microfleece wipe surface on the thumb.

Bottom Line: For long, sweaty rides.

Sizing..

By: JoeyQuick
October 15, 2009

Hardest part of ordering online is sizing I would think. I'm 6'4 with average size hands and the XL turned out to be a bit big although I've yet to wash them. Very comfortable and stylish though and the padding is effective.

Nice summer gloves - good venting

By: pugetmarco
August 31, 2009

These are my second pair of PI Elite Gel Vent gloves. That's all you really need to know!

The venting around the palm is nice. The fit is snug, which is a good thing for a bike glove. I've washed my first set of gloves, and they still fit and look like they survived the washing machine and dryer ok.

Pulling them off is a bit of a struggle, not any worse than other gloves I've owned. Hopefully one day more glove makers will incorporate tried and true ways to help pull off snug gloves - look at Castelli Rosso Corsa for example, or Schieck weight lifting gloves.

So to sum up, all in all, a nice summer glove!

Good summer road bike gloves

By: pugetmarco
May 26, 2009

PI gloves are generally reliable and well made. These are no exception!
They are nicely vented, even through the palm area - which worked well in 80+ deg weather. The padding was minimalist, a bit less than other PI gel gloves I've had, but sufficient. Like most bike gloves, they slide on more easily than they come off!

Great gloves

By: jer100278058
May 27, 2009

I have both full fingered and fingerless Elite Gel Vent Gloves. Both are lite weight. The full fingured gloves keep your hands worm whem it's cool and the fingerless gloves stay cool when it's warm. Nice snug fit. However, I found that the sizing chart seems to be off by one full size. I measured a Large but the XL fits perfectly.

Cool Gloves for Summer

By: scooke11072014757
May 1, 2009

I bought the gloves as a present for a significant other. He reports that the gloves are light and cool and run true to size. They served him fine on his road bike for short rides, but didn't have enough padding to cushion his hands for long or extended road trips. Based on the price paid, I was disappointed in the amout of padding and cushioning.

Disappointed in Pearl Izumi.

By: lticew2107594
May 14, 2009

Considering the usual quality of Pearl Izumi products, these fall far short. I would even go as far as calling them "garbage". Within two days of having them, the gel pad started to come through the mesh on one of the palms, and the only way to get it back in was to cut the mesh, reinsert the gel, then superglue it shut. As of this review, I have simply just removed the gel and mesh after dealing with it so many times. They should have sealed it with leather instead of mesh. Also, after only two weeks, the reflected Pearl Izumi logo has completely peeled off of both gloves. DO NOT BUY THESE GLOVES. Pearl Izumi, I am incredibly disappointed in you.

Fit great. Not much padding.

By: Susan K. Bailey
June 14, 2009

These gloves fit great. They don't squeeze or pinch or have seams in the wrong places. But if you are looking for padding, these are not for you. The padding seems to be placed strategically at pressure points but definitely not cushy.

Coolish

By: com100336659
June 20, 2009

They look pretty cool! all black and red...
I've had gloves that retain odor, these don't (so far)
The gel pads seem a little firmer than I expected, but I've gotten accustomed...
They seem to run just a liiiittle bit small. All the reflective logo work is peeling off. (whatever)
I think the only downside is the lack of soft material on the backside-- I forgot my headband one day and about rubbed my eyelids raw.
Other than that they're on the cool side, both physically and aesthetically...
