3 season budget glove
After an incident where I high sided due to someone slamming their brakes in the middle of a green light my right hand/wrist got pretty jacked up. I bought these and a jacket the next day. <br /><br />I got these because I needed something that didn't look power ranger esque but still gave good palm protection and other impact protections all the while having enough breathability to use in 90 degree DC heat. These gloves deliver in spades and are priced right!<br /><br />Pros<br />Ventilation, for a more protective leather glove these actually breathe quite well. My hands sweat **a little in 90 plus heat wearing these in DC but at 30 plus mph i can feel a slight breeze in them if the finger tips are pointed up. It's just enough to keep you from sweating but the gloves seem warm enough to work in spring and fall as well.<br /><br />Protection,<br />I have no doubt if I was wearing these when I high sided I would have had a much better day. These things feel like they would protect any part of my hand in any crash at normal speeds of 80mph or less. Thinks wrist/palm protection plus very nice knuckle and finger guards.<br /><br />Style,<br />These things look bad ass and can be worn on sportbikes or cruisers<br /><br />Cons,<br />Only downside to these gloves I have experience are bulkiness/no touch screen finger and stitching. After pulling a glove off with my teeth twice I can see some fraying from the stitching. But for 50 bucks you cant beat it.
Working out just fine
My priority was protection. After severe scarring on my left hand due to an accident in August. This glove fits the bill. Sizing was per the chart. Except the thumb is too long. Good value. Mild weather, so I will wait and see how they perform in the summer. Located in Texas.
Great protection
Gloves fit me a little on the large side especially on the thumb. The comfort is great thou. Relatively cool. Protection is great. Fell off bike at around 15 mph and two days later the the knuckle are on the glove had road rash. I hadn't noticed it because I did not feel any problems with my hand at the time of the fall. love those suckers.
Klaw II
The Scorpion Klaw II is very comfortable, airflow is good, design looks great, the feel is awesome just order a size lager than what you normally wear, also feels like your not wearing a glove (ever heard the expression "fits like a glove", it truly does). The padded palm area is sweet, knowing you'll have the extra protection. The materials used on this glove feels durable, feels like it'll last a lifetime.
I love these gloves. I have put just over 11k miles on them and there arent any lose strings, splits or holes. I trust them. If you live somewhere hot 85+, I wouldnt suggest these. They are feel great between 50-85, but any warmer or colder and they become too cold or too hot
Velcro issue
I got these gloves for my boyfriend as a Christmas gift. It was a good bang for your buck for a summer short cuff. The only issue is the Velcro stitching came undone on one glove the beginning of his second season which is a bit of a disappointment. His first pair of scorpion gloves are 6 years only and they dont have any product defects aside from normal wear, so we were surprised and upset that the stitching issue occurred so quickly on these new gloves.
Great gloves!
These gloves are amazing! They're very well made and the fit was perfect for me. I was in a serious accident with them a few months ago and even tho the rest of my body was messed up my hands were perfect. I left a big mark from the knuckle protection on the car involved and if I hadn't worn these gloves I probably wouldn't have any skin left on my knuckles. I'll be getting another pair when I start riding again. For $50 you can't beat these!
Velcro Issues
The gloves themselves have held up relatively well, especially for the price. However, the velcro began to fall apart within the first month of riding with them. I'm now two-seasons in and I have since replaced the velcro with my own. While this sort of works, it isn't permanent and is still very annoying. The gloves still feel great though, but none of that matters if they won't STAY ON.<br /><br />Please, Scorpion, fix this issue!
Durable and Long Lasting
Great gloves. Lasted me years - on and a little off road too. Snug at first, but they'll break in.
Great product for the price
Little tight on fit at first but quality product. Stretched out a bit now after a month and fits better. <br /><br />Styling looks a lot less extreme in person than online. Love the pre-curve fingers and solid padding on contact surfaces. <br /><br />The Velcro strap also has a nifty button on each so you don?t lose one between rides. <br /><br />Good price for the product. Great for those not wanting to break the bank. Would recommend a size up if you are between sizes.
Good gloves, mid level priced
Good fit immediately. Minimal time to break in. Worked for me in the 60-80 degress temp range with good control feel.
Nice Simple Gloves
Fit is accurate to size chart. As a new rider I found that I would clench my fist too much and cause the knuckle armor to rub my knuckles, but as I've relaxed my grip I haven't had any issues with comfort. Note that they are short cuff and have a bit of a gap at the closure, so maybe not the best for cold weather. No palm sliders.
Great Warm Weather Gloves
I bought these when I knew nothing about riding gear & was just about to learn to ride, & I still use them as my main go-to gloves as long as its at least 70 degrees out.<br /><br />They breathe really well, which is great for warm to hot weather rides, but cold air eats right through these. They have very good range of motion, too, but the thumbs take a bit to break in. It won't restrict you from using your turn signal, but its not the easiest to do until they get broken in, either. As for protection, I have no doubt they'll keep my hands in tact in case I ever unexpectedly punch asphalt.
Highly Recommend.
Purchased these for use with my CBR 500R sport bike. Fit is great as is comfort. OK for moderately cold days too. Love the visual style- don't appear as star war'ish as many seen during my search for gloves. Ted C. South Carolina.
Velcro became separated from rubber straps after one weekend.
The look, feel, style and fit of these gloves are great. However I've only worn them for one weekend while taking Harley-Davidson's Easy Rider traing course. In the process of putting them on and off during the two days of riding, both gloves suffered the same failure - the Velcro on both gloves is separating from the rubber strap. I don't understand how this could've happened to me but not to anyone else who've also reviewed these. But because of this failure I cannot recommend these gloves.
Klaw II Gloves
Good gloves for the price. However, the velcro strap is very small. The size of a quarter. They will never stay on in an accident. I can pull them right off tearing the velcro connection easily.
Fit Great
I got the grey version. My hand measured a tiny bit over 9" so I got the XL which is stated for 9" and they fit as would be expected. A little snug when first tried on, but 2XL would have been too big and I know they will break in. Great product for the price.
Nice gloves that fit well
Fit snug yet flexible enough to finesse controls. They feel like very good protection, not yet crashed with them. Good fit and finish.
Good Glove for a budget
Good entry level gloves. I was looking for some gloves as my first set. I bought these thinking these were going to be my end all be all glove. As a first set of gloves on a budget they are good. For me they fit great on the palm area but the fingers feel a bit longer then the average hand.
Great for warm weather.
Personally, I love these. They feel solid, they're super comfortable and look badass. One note... they're best in warm weather. I tried putting a sub-layer in (from another store, not Scorpion) and they became stiff and my hands ached while riding.<br /><br />I'd have liked touchscreen ready fingers, I stuck them on, you can get those anywhere.<br /><br />However, for daily riding in temperate weather they are awesome.
Comfortable well fit glove for 3 seasons.
These were my first riding gloves. They fit well and have a nice grippy insert on the palm. They are comfortable and were not too hot in the summer months. The cloth on the lateral aspects of the fingers allows some air flow, so exposing my hand to the wind cools it down quickly on a hot summer day. Without any insulation, they are a little challenging to use in the winter even with heated grips. <br /><br />I did have a small issue with the velcro closure separating from the glove. A little CA (superglue) fixed the issue for me.
A great present for my boyfriend!
My boyfriend just recently got his first motorcycle! I got him these gloves as a small present and he is SO happy with them! He always raves about how much he likes them, they fit perfectly, theyre super comfy and theyre just overall really cool! Super easy to measure, and were both very pleased with this purchase.
Very good for warm weather
I would definitely recommend these gloves. They look great and you get great feedback through them. I dont know how they would do in a crash and Im trying to keep it that way (ATGATT). They are definitely not cold weather gloves. The ventilation is amazing
Awesome gloves for the price
I don't think you can find a better quality glove for under 60 bucks. I like the style of the gloves and the airflow is fine. <br /><br />Another review said to go a size down on these and I did, however the larges I ordered are a big too snug. Its possible that they will break in and become less stiff but I think I'm going to exchange them for XL size. My hand is 9" for those wondering.
Fall apart
I love these gloves except that the velcro is garbage. Now I have to either modify them so that I can wear them or just buy new gloves. I have only maybe gone on 25 rides with them. There also is a hotspot between the thumb and finger. But if you dont mind the velcro coming apart in 6 months or less, then get them. They flow a lot of air.
Changed the quality
I had these last season and they were built well. Bought the same pair in january 2018 and the quality is waaaaay downhill.. all the materials used no are very thin and cheap.used to be one of the best bang for the buck gloves, now its built like its priced, CHEAP. I have my old pair to compare from last year and the difference is huge.. same rand name, same series, and a different fit this year then last means no more scorpion anything for me.Im returning these cheaply made gloves, bummer im on the line for return shipping
Fits like a glove!
I am a beginner to the street world (although I've been riding dirt bikes my whole life) and was looking around for some fairly cheap but protective gloves since most of my money went towards my new bike. I watched countless videos on Youtube and read multiple reviews and ultimately went with these as my first pair. I don't regret it one bit! These gloves are very comfortable and the pre-formed design makes it feel like i'm not wearing a glove at all. The knuckle protection is very bulky and the added pads on the palm are a nice feature - so you know you're going to be protected in the event of a crash (god forbid that happens). My one AND ONLY complaint, as mentioned in previous reviews, is that the thumb is a little long. It seems as though it's a common issue and not just for a select few with short thumbs. It's about a 1/2 of an inch too long. Nothing to worry about and I honestly don't even notice it but i'm just wondering why Scorpion cut them this way.<br />Also, the sizing chart is spot on. I measured 8 inches around and ordered a size large. The gloves fit perfectly. Overall I am very pleased I purchased these as my first pair.
They Are Gloves
IDK, man. They're gloves. They look OK, they're not too hot in the summer, not too cold in spring and fall, easy to get on and off, nice pre-curve to them. Really comfortable, honestly. I've had mine for a couple years now and they're holding up well. A few loose threads here and there but nothing to worry about. The knuckle protectors are probably a little more Wolverine-looking then they need to be. But maybe that's your thing. <br /><br />It does seem like the sizes are skewed small. I don't think I have particularly large hands but I wear a 2XL in these.
Pass on these, stitching on the velcro strap goes quickly.
Gloves were great for a few weeks, then the velcro strap tore from one of the gloves though normal use. Only got about a months worth of use out of them, only riding a couple days a week.
Two Years Later - No Regrets
Love these gloves. Been riding with them for the past two years and they are so comfortable, look great, and I feel protected at all times. Highly recommend them.
Gloves
Snug but going to have to break in and get use to the palm that is padded for safety.
Good stuff
I had these ones before. Bought them again! Perfect for my needs. Comfy and durable. Buy size up (I got XL but usually wear L)
Oof ouch owie i fell and scuffed my 70$ gloves
Well built hope its holds in crash wish it had touch screen
It's great! Except for one thing.
For $55 they're pretty darn good. The leather is comfortable, and the stretch zones make it easy to use. Airflow is descent with the perforations. <br />The only thing I despise about these gloves is they cheaped out on the hook-and-loop closure. After only 8 months it's not holding together well. The cloth that it actually hooks onto is completely shredded. The palm is also showing some wear so I'm already looking for a replacement. <br />If that hook-and-loop would have held up I would be recommending this as an excellent casual glove.
Different sizes.
The gloves are two different sizes, one fits great, one is just a bit too small. Normally if gloves are the right size, they both fit me fine.
Too Bulky. Not satisfied with these gloves.
Not happy with these, too bulky and the knuckle protection is ridiculous. Id return them if I can..
Quality, bang for your buck gloves!
Size chart was spot on for these gloves. Great bang for the buck gloves! Quality was great and style was awesome on hand. Only grip about this for me personally is that if you have skinny fingers like me, it will feel a bit too beefy especially around the thumb. I would have kept these gloves if it felt more snug around my fingers. Great product overall!
My knuckles hurt
my knuckles were tight and it hurt after a while.
good buy
Some stitching came loose a few weeks into wear but it was more annoying to look at than compromising any functionality. Still going strong 2 years in. Warm to moderate weather.
My first gloves
My first set of gloves so this review may change. They fit well and feel great while riding. I rode in some cooler weather (upper 40's) and they were cold but I was expecting that. Air flow is very nice and they seem pretty stout.
great gloves but needs reinforcement stitching on velcro bits
i got this glove 8 months ago and although great and comfortable the stitching has come off both velcro straps on both gloves. Ive tried to stitch back some of it but dont really have the time or energy do it. Its still usable after i fixed it but dissapointed that in only 8months those parts have failed. The rest of the glove is still in great condition. I think that part of the glove needs to be revised as some other customers also pointed out.
Followed the size chart and ordered the wrong size.
I was planning on ordering a medium before I looked at the size chart. After measuring my hand and looking at the chart, it said I was a large, so I ordered a large. When I received it, it was too big. I'm disappointed because I planned on ordering the correct size for my hand, but after looking at the size chart I changed my mind. Now I'm having to pay shipping and handling for a return that was not my mistake.
Mediocre glove
I bought these against my better judgement, based on the good reviews. I have a full gauntlet Cortech gloves(~$150) , that I normally wear , but got these for casual rides in the summer , where I don't feel like putting all my gear on...omg , did I mess up. These are cheap and you get what you pay for.<br /><br />I can only imagine , that someone would call these comfortable, if they have never had comfortable gloves. I can barely feel the controls, almost no feedback from throttle . <br /><br />The fit is weird, I am Large , according to their chart , but the fingers are a tad long. <br /><br />Also, whoever said they have good airflow - they don't. I can easily ride my Cortech all day , cause they are actually ventilated. These are not. <br /><br />The gloves itself feels somewhat too thick, despite it doesn't really provide decent protection . Apart from the knuckle protection , the rest is superficial padding. <br /><br />Even touching it feels cheap. Basically - if you can only afford that , I guess it is better than bare hands..although I feel more comfortable riding bare hands , than with these on .
Perfect fit and ventilation
I am a fan of Scorpion and these gloves do not dissapoint. The sizing chart is spot on and the gloves fit perfectly.<br /><br />Other gloves tend to cut off circulation or are poorly made however, the Scorpion Klaw II uses quality leather, durable stitching, and elastic materials on the fingers and along the index finger.<br /><br />These gloves are a must in warm weather. The fingers are perforated and allow for proper ventilation / cooling.<br /><br />Another nice touch are the elastic portions on the cuff which keeps the glove from covering a wrist watch and stays snug to the wrist without cutting off circulation.
Poor build quality
These gloves are incredibly comfortable and breath well in the scratching city that is Houston, Texas in the summer. What keeps me from recommending these gloves is the poor build quality. One of the finger tips stitching came apart within the first month of wearing and the stitching on the velcro tabs came undone after the second month.
Great!!!
Great glove! Very stylish and offers a great protection! The area in the curve of my hand (in between thumb and index finger) is slightly uncomfortable at times, but the glove is made that way so it fits better when riding. Sizing charts were spot on for me too. Only a decent amount of airflow but so far I have not found it to be an issue. Very reliable glove and for what you are getting, the price point is almost a steal! Extremely happy with these gloves and would recommend them to everybody!
Good bang for your buck all around daily use gloves
Just ordered my 2nd pair, only because my previous pair (purchased 2 years and 8 months ago) finally started coming apart,<br />and that's daily riding/commuting.<br /><br />To say I heavily used these gloves is a gross understatement.<br /><br />Comfortable in summer heat, long rides etc.<br />Only switch out winter or rain gloves when it gets bad.<br /><br />I've had better gloves but generally end up spending double or more.would be nice to have a slightly heavier leather and or padding for very long rides, and there are other gloves out there with that, but again, you'll pay alot more for it.<br /><br />Velcro started to crap.out after a couple of years. <br /><br />Overall no complaints.
Love these gloves! Good value, comfort, looks & protection.
Great glove! I like it so much that I am a repeat buyer. I like it in white the best. Good knuckle protection and fits the size of my hand really well. Only negative is that the velcro wears off over time.
Klaw II Gloves
I have a hard time deciding on a size of glove. Xl is perfect for me usually width wise but has a little bit more finger than I want. I decided to get a large this time. When I got them n tried them on they were pretty tight. Very glad I didn't send them back. After 3 or 4 times of wearing them for 5 to 10 minutes at a time, I have never had amore comfortable glove. Great quality n fast shipping
Excellent Gloves
Great glove! Fits well, love the armor and sturdiness in all the right places while still being comfortable. Looks pretty cool and not over the top as well!
Decent glove but agree with previous reviews
Actually have the same issue as the review before mine. Glove is holding up really well besides the hook/loop fastener. The outer cloth/leather has separated from the Velcro which makes it harder to take off after riding. Generally a good glove for the price though, it?s just that one issue. Only lasted about 3 months before the fastener started going. So if you have the extra cash I?d recommend buying something a bit more expensive. But as a starter glove for new riders, it?s not bad.
Worthless gloves
Bad product I just purchased these gloves over a month ago they are already ripping apart from the thump finger. The Velcro strap does not work properly and the worse part you can't use your phone with the gloves on. So disappointed.
Returned
Not a true fit and some fingers fit perfect while others Were too long
Excellent Glove
These things are solid. The padding and solid rubber knuckles are confidence inspiring, you just know theyre going to hold up fine in a crash. Theyre comfortable and have good air flow, I dont get sweaty hands at all. <br /><br />The airflow can be a downside. 50 degree mornings can be pretty miserable without some kind of insulating liner inside. Im 150lbs and have shmedium large hands. A size medium nitrile glove is tight on my hands, a large is a little too loose. I went with size medium gloves and they fit perfectly, with just enough room to still wear a cotton glove liner.<br /><br />I didnt want to mess around with my hand protecting, we do everything with them after all. But I also didnt want to spend a ton of money. These fit the bill perfectly.
Velcro ripped out its own stitches before I even used them for riding
I picked these up yesterday. While trying them on, the velcro ripped its stitches out of the glove. <br /><br />The fit feels OK, the pinky and thumb seem to be abnormally long. I can't comment on anything else as I haven't used them for riding yet. I think I will return them and get something else. If your product breaks before I even use it, it makes me question your manufacturing process.
Great for price
My first pair of gloves and I love them. Quite cheap and very comfortable after you break them in. I have had several compliments on how they look! I feel protected while maintaining dexterity.
Meh
Stitching on velcro wrist straps unraveled first time I used them.
Almost what I'm looking for
I was looking for a glove that looks like it could take a fall while still able to have a good feel of my controls . These gloves seem to settle this need.<br /><br />I had to go one size down according the size chart. I had originally gone with what the chart recommended and I had a little excess room at my finger tips, making it difficult to do things that require a little dexterity like buttoning my jacket, picking up things, or using my turn signal. After sizing down, these issues were no longer a problem.<br /><br />Would like to see this style of gloves with at least index finger touch screen. I ride along and international border with my phone as GPS and sometimes I will get a pop-up that I want to exit or quick command that requires a single tap. I cannot do these functions while wearing these gloves
Very Uncomfortable for me
Oddly, these gloves feel too large AND too small. The finger length is way too long for me, got about half an inch of space at the end of the fingers. They also feel too tight. I regularly have bruising alongside my fingers from the stitching inside the gloves after about 30-45mins of use. The palm part of the gloves seem to fit fine and they feel very protective. I'm not experiencing any airflow that is supposed to be a draw of these gloves. <br />For reference, I am a 5'7" 140lbs male.
I wore my last pair out
My original pair started to give out right around the velcro straps. You could say I'm rough on stuff.<br />I bought a replacement pair (not Scorpion Klaw 2) at a local shop, but they were too small and cut off my circulation at the wrists, so I gave them away. I like the black/white coloration. They get a driver's attention if I must point at them to give way or make a right hand turn signal with my arm.<br /><br />I probably should buy another pair just to have on hand.
2,500 mi Review Decent glove. Velcro on both gloves Failed from normal use
Fit is okay. pinky is extra long on mine. The most irritating thing about these glove is that the Velcro on BOTH gloves Failed from normal use. Now it detaches a moment after taking off on a ride. <br />MSF course and 2,500 mi of use/ About 7-8 Months of life. and now they have little to no closure, they would fly off easily in a crash at this point. Huge bummer, but a great glove while it worked.<br /><br />Rode in CA, Bay area weather, never in rainfall.
Solid Gloves - Slick Look!
These are pretty thick gloves, but definitely not cold weather gloves. The venting is great, and sucks in the cold mornings, because my fingers still freeze, ha. But they're doing their job. <br /><br />They feel super solid, but without compromising flexibility. They are quite comfortable, and fit snugly, and true to size. <br /><br />My only complaints would be that the velcro on the wrist, it's tiny - which makes it kind of difficult to get off, and half the time it feels like I might pull the velcro pad off the glove. But it's still solidly attached so, so far so good. <br /><br />The other thing would be the effort to move your fingers. I'm not a weak dude (but find me a guy that will admit they are...), but I've noticed after longer-ish riding sessions my fingers are sore from the effort to keep my hands cupped around the bike grips. I've not had that happen with any other glove, but it's not really that big a deal, and I assume with time it'll go away. <br /><br />The snap on the wrist is a nice touch to help keep them together. Makes it way easier than having to dig through a bag for both gloves. They also look super nice. <br /><br />Overall, I'd highly recommend these. For the cost, you're absolutely getting your money's worth.
Scorpion gloves
Great protection. I recommend getting the next size up for a more comfortable fit.
Best $50 I've Used
I've been using these gloves almost daily for around 2 years. They look great, feel great, and are super affordable. I highsided going 60-65 recently and these gloves protected my hands perfectly. Despite every other piece of clothing/gear being ruined, these gloves barely look used.<br /><br />Very. very happy with this purchase.
Awesome at first!
First things first: For the price they are great, but don't try to make them your main gloves.<br /><br />I have had these gloves for a while. I really enjoyed wearing them at first, they were quite snug and the grip was solid. The styling is great and the white and black goes well with my other gear.<br /><br />You get what you pay for though, In less than a year of off and on use, they have stretched so much they nearly come off in the wind when saluting other riders. The velcro has almost completely lost its sticking power, and when the weather is just a bit cold the gloves literally stick to the control levers...even after cleaning the levers and the gloves. This makes modulating the clutch difficult on those frosty mornings.<br /><br />Overall, they are great looking and fit well at first but they stretch a LOT and wear out quickly.
Over 10 years of use. Great glove, but wrist closure will fail.
I originally bought these gloves in 2013 when I first started riding. Since then, these gloves have been used frequently and probably have accumulated about 70,000 miles of riding. The only thing I have done to them is I applied some black leather dye about 4 years ago because they were quite faded on the top where they are exposed to the sun. I truly love these gloves. That being said, there are some drawbacks:<br /><br />Pros:<br />Comfortable (for me). My longest ride in these gloves was about 18 hours. I literally forget they are on my hands.<br />Durable (for me). For how long I have had these gloves, its truly remarkable they have not come apart at the seams. They are well made. Perhaps if you buy a size that is too small for your hand you may have issues, but I never had.<br />Protection: I have not fallen in these gloves but given their durability and the thickness of the material, I feel their protection is very good.<br /><br />Cons:<br />#1 CON The Velcro wrist closure fails (relatively) quickly. If I am remembering correctly, the velcro closure failed within 2 years into owing these gloves. Back then I was riding daily, in sunshine and rain, so perhaps that contributed to the Velcro failing quickly. It failed by losing its stickiness and by coming unstitched as you can see in the photo. I still where the gloves because they fit my hand snuggly and are not going anywhere. Honestly this is a pretty big con for me, which is why I am not considering purchasing the glove again.<br />Air flow is limited: Air flow is not great in these gloves. On long summer rides/summer rides in traffic I have had very sweaty hands. At highways speeds its not so bad, but air flow is certainly not a strength of this glove. <br /><br />Would I recommend these gloves? Well I love them, but they stay snugly on my hand without the Velcro wrist closure. I wish I could give them 5 stars, but the velcro wrist closure failing so soon is a major issue. But I still wear them to this day, so I guess that tells you how much I like them.
Weird Finger Lengths / Not for Me
Finger lengths starting from middle to pinky get progressively longer, almost 3/4" of an inch past the tip of my pinky. The velcro strap is very small and you do not have any tightening positions. The only 2 positives I can think of is they seem like they would protect you in an accident & I like how the fixed position kind of arcs your hands around grips. These are just not for me and I wish they had a little more wrist forearm coverage, I shouldnt have cheaped out. I currently use mechanics gloves and these mechanics gloves are better than these Klaws. These will be for a back up in a pinch situation only and will live in the panniers forever.
Not Great
The knuckle guard is very uncomfortable and really limits mobility. Disappointing for sure.
Not Great
The knuckle guard is very uncomfortable and limits flexability. Disappointing.
Eh
A year and a halt later, they are coming apart at the seams. I guess they aren't bad for $55, but dang.
Very comfortable, a bit warm for summer in my opinion due to the padding and felt like lining and I don't feel like they offer much airflow. If these had touch screen finger tips I'd still wear them year round because they're that comfortable.<br /><br />I will also mention that the stitch on the inside of my right hand popped open very early in their use, but never got worse.
Just ok gloves. They fit well when I am not riding, but they put my fingers to sleep when I am riding. They are stiff and do not let me access the controls on my bike easily.<br />I am bummed because they are really cool. I will continue to wear and try to break them in and see if they get better.
Great gloves. Will buy another pair one day.
I?ve had these for several seasons and they?re fantastic. Will buy another pair when these wear out.
Great Gloves!!
These are very comfortable from the start. The only "nit pick" I could possibly mention is the thumbs are a bit long on both gloves. Still though, I won't hesitate to recommend the Scorpian Klaw II gloves. It's Winter where I live so can't comment on durability or air flow.
Scorpion EXO Klaw II Gloves
Love them! They?re super durable and they look awesome!
Sturdy Leather Gloves
Sturdy gloves. Still breaking them in. Good material and a great value.
Not bad
Not bad fits good I would like to see more protection on the palm other than that it?s great
Nice
Would like more slide protection but they fit good and pretty soft
Comfort and Longevity
Since buying these gloves, I've ridden over 12,000 miles with them in all types of weather. These gloves are extremely comfortable and aside from some very minor wear and tear, they're holding up extremely well. Until it starts getting too cold, 45 degrees Fahrenheit or lower, these will be just fine. For the price, you can't go wrong with these gloves. I'm guessing they'll last me at least a couple more years before I'll end up needing to replace them.
Avoid
Definitely stay away. Spend a little extra money on nicer gloves. The velcro strap is a joke it will peel off in a month. The fingers are abnormally long while the knuckle is too tight even with a large. Overall feels super cheap and I would not trust it in a crash.
Came damaged
They came with a seam ripped so I never even tried them on.
Ran too small
I had to return them because they ran too small. Ordered an XL (a size up from their chart, which suggested an L), but it was still too small. Recommend 2 sizes up.<br /><br />The wrist velcro strap is quite narrow / small and doesn't give great coverage, feels like it could easily tear loose and expose the wrist to the road.
Improvements needed
These need a smartphone capable finger. Stitching came undone pretty quick.
Great gloves!
These gloves look and feel great!
Small
Good glove but runs very small
Great bang for the buck, with some build quality issues
These were my first moto gloves. I still love them, and they're very comfortable, nice and cool in hot weather, good reinforcement in the palm, but I have a few frustrating gripes.<br /><br />First and foremost, the quality control on the stitching seems lacking. I had to do a warranty exchange on my first pair because a seam split along one finger in the middle of my second MSF class. Scorpion required that I destroy the first pair and email a photo before sending a replacement (which seemed like a horrible waste, especially with the glove that wasn't screwy). The second pair lasted longer, but the seam between leather and stretch panel at the top of the wrist came apart. In both cases it was the left hand, but that's likely coincidental. The gloves are still usable, and I don't feel that's a structural problem in this case, but it's disappointing.<br /><br />Less problematic but still not confidence inspiring is the puny velcro wrist strap. I'm not sure how well that would hold up in a slide. I always feel like I'm going to break the thing when I cinch them down. The snap to hold the two gloves together is awesome, though, especially when fueling up. I wish more gloves had that.<br /><br />One other complaint that's more just a nice-to-have is the lack of touch screen support. Having to pull over when I forget to restart Rever after a fuel-up is annoying. All moto gloves should really have that feature at this point. Not a deal breaker given the price, but strongly desired for a Klaw III!<br /><br />The more amusing comment I have on these is that the open spot at the wrist where you cinch them down exposes your skin. When I was using these during the summer for long rides, I got tan marks on the back of each hand. I thought they were bruises at first! More funny than problematic.<br /><br />For the price, I absolutely do recommend them. I have high hopes for a next version. Bump up the price $10 to add the touch tech, address the structural flaws and quality control, and this would be an absolute go-to glove.
Great gloves.
These gloves are just what I was looking for. Snug fit, great mobility, and sturdy build. I love them.
These gloves are great. The fit is tight but not restrictive. They naturally curve which makes curling your fingers easy. The snap to connect them is sturdy. They breathe pretty well on the road. The materials are high quality.
Nice gloves!!
Very sharp looking gloves too. Im 5'9 and 250lbs with smaller hands and ordered the large and they fit but were tight, so I returned for xlarge and theyre perfect.
Built for the long haul
I've got 20k miles on these gloves. All year all weather. These have def stood the test of time. They are not winter/wet gloves but damn if they dont work for everything else. Ill keep these gloves until the stitcjing pops, which has yet to happen, not even 1 stitch. edit: I can use my phone with these.
Excellent 3 season glove
Though this glove is designed for summer use, I find it perfectly comfortable in the Spring and Fall in 50 F weather, Heck, I even rode through a rainstorm with these gloves and it didn't soak up a ton of water either. Super comfortable, I love them.
good value
I bought the size large and they fit very snug. First few time riding with them my hands would become numb. Soaked them in water and wore them while riding on a hot day until they dried and now they fit perfect with no numbness. They have a lot of rubber on the knuckles, a little too much in my opinion. Overall I would recommend.
Great gloves
For the price, you cannot go wrong. After measuring a couple of times I ordered the large. They fit ok, but I think I might have been better off with a medium. The felt good on and look like they will hold up well.
Awesome Gloves
These are some really awesome looking and feeling gloves. I would say fit true to size. Finger length is just slightly short but I think theyll stretch over time to fit perfect. Definitely feel like they should protect well in a fall. Would recommend!
Good comfortable gloves I would suggest maybe going up a size, overall a good pair of gloves.
Great gloves starting out.
But they kinda fizzled out after 6 months. The velcro strap is literally tearing apart at the seam, and a lot of the stitching is begging to come undone around various parts of the glove. Otherwise, it was a great pair to own as I started out my first year of riding.
Excellent gloves for cafe & touring
I picked up these gloves because I trust scorpion gear, especially their 'Exo' line. They didn't let me down.<br /><br />I ordered a 'small' knowing that I have smaller hands they fit perfectly. My index finger is fit against the end of the glove with no wiggle room. I'd suggest ordering a medium if you have average sized hands. One of my favorite features is a snap on the wrist to keep your gloves together when you're off the bike. I love that!<br /><br />The ventilation is good at medium speed, they get a little sweaty if you're stuck in traffic on a hot day. I'll happily take that over the reinforced layers of leather in slide zones (mid palm, low wrist and pinky side edge). The protruding knuckle guards offer reinforced leather (extra points for style, especially in grey).<br /><br />Baseline: I wouldn't take them to the track but they're excellent in every other category.
Great entry level gloves.
These were my first glove purchased. They fit juuuust snug compared to the measurement chart but break in very quickly<br /> I put over 18,000 miles on them and couldn't be more pleased. <br /><br />The 100+ degrees out here they do get a bit warm at traffic lights, but the air flow once you're moving cools you off quickly. These are not good for cool weather. Sub 60F I recommend inserts. With inserts, I would go much past 48F.<br /><br />I've recently upgraded to a gauntlet style glove for more protection - but I loved these so much I picked up a new pair. Never know when these things will get discontinued!
Awesome Gloves!
These are a good price. Very comfortable, and they look awesome as well. Padding in the palms is nice and thick, and the fingers feel great.
Great budget gloves
Pretty nice warm weather gloves. The leather breaks in well and feels comfortable. No trouble with the knuckle armor rubbing.<br /><br />I'll have to see how they hold up with a little more time, but they seem pretty solid so far. Would buy again.
Best bang for your buck!!!
The gloves look great, very light but durable, and for $55 you cant really beat it.
Agressive
This scorpion gloves is very durable and can take an impact at high speed and very relaible
Definitely will buy again
As titled love them im a new rider but definitely a comfortable pair of gloves to wear straight out the box
Heck yeah
These a super cool, and fave ones I've bought!
Would buy again
These simply put, are great gloves. They offer great protection, with hard knuckles, goat leather for abrasion resistance, and eva foam on the palms for impact protection. The style is also a nice aggressive looking style, though I do wish they had more color options. The fingers are a tad bit long but it's manageable, also they don't breath air insanely well, but they could be worse. I enjoy how they connect with a button and once again, think they're a great buy. If you're a beginner on a budget, buy these gloves, you won't regret it.
Everyday commuting glove
I wear these everyday except when it's raining. They've broken in nicely, have great grip and flow air nicely on hot days. I find women's gloves to be too short in the fingers, so a men's small works perfectly instead.
Great gloves for the price
These gloves are durable, fit well, and have enough warmth and airflow to ride from 40F to 85F. <br /><br />I have large hands. I went with the XL based on the fitting guide, and it is a snug fit, so if you are in between a size, I'd recommend going a size up. <br /><br />My only concern about these gloves is the Velcro closures on the wrists. They hold just fine right now, but the surface area on the Velcro is quite small, so I worry about it being too weak to stay shut after a year.
Velcro mishap
These gloves are great...except for one thing. The velcro strap has lost all use only after one season. I will have to buy something to repair it because at this point, if I were to fall, I doubt these gloves would stay on (they are already a little too large). <br /><br />Besides that, the gloves are great for summer due to good breathability. <br /><br />4/5
Nice glove, needs better stitching on Velcro corners
Good flow, great style and feel protective. Stitching is lose in some corners and will let loose eventually. Ill have them sewn myself to tighten them up. Not bad for the money at all.
Didn't get to use them because of sizes.
My hand measures a size XL on the sizing chart so I ordered XL. Turns out it was too small so I returned it and ordered an XXL. To my disappointment, they were still to small as it hurt my knuckles to close my hand into a fist. Since they don't sell a 3XL, I will have to look at another glove brand to use :/
If it's Good Enough for Ryan F9, it's Good Enough for Me
I noticed in one vid that Ryan F9 wears these. I decided to give them a try based on that, and they do not disappoint. Great fit, great tactility, just enough air flow, good length, good fastening and ease of use. Great durability. No complaints from me. <br /><br />I can wear them from 100°-45° weather, though they're happiest at around 70. My hands naturally did sweat in 80+ degree weather and I can only last about an hour when temps are 50 or below.
Lots of glove for the price but one issue..
This glove was marked down. Killer features for what it was. I compared a bunch in this price range. Very comfortable with lots of padding in every area. No touch screen dedication compared to my lucky icons but loads better protection which was a good trade off. I just had one question for scorpion.. What man do you have in your fitment depth that has a thumb that stops just below his index finger? I'm sure his wife is happy about that but I am not. Thus the score.
Nice looking gloves but...
I bought those gloves at the end of last year riding season. I was excited to use them this season but after 2000 miles of riding in them this season they are already falling apart stitches start to rip around wrist. I am really disappointed about that. It is nice glove comfortable and looks good on your hand but quality is poor.
N/A
The stitching on the velcro strap got destroyed after ~1 month. This is the only weak part of the glove, although it is substantial enough that I will not buy these gloves again.
Sizing
I got this glove based off of the reviews and that it offered more protection compared to others at this price point. After having used it on many rides I can say that this is the most annoying glove I've had. I went up a size according to the video and reviews and the glove feels really good around my palm like it should. However, the fingers are not consistent. The length fits for most of my fingers but not all and the size around the finger is big on all of them. It is a very annoying feeling and I feel like if I went down a size it would be way too tight around my palm. I'm very disappointed with Scorpion and wont buy any more of their products and I won't recommend their products to anyone.
Not great quality.
The stitching on the velcro tabs started to come out on the first day of use!
Awesome glove for $50.00
These gloves fit great. Very comfortable in hot weather and now that the weather here in the south has cooled a little they are just fine on 55 degree day. <br /><br />I ordered mediums as that is what a normally wear in other gloves. Fit was a little tight but they did stretch enough in a short period. <br /><br />Dexterity is very good and the they seem well built. <br /><br />I wouldn't hesitate to by another pair of the Klaw II.
Chunky but comfortable.
A nice glove for those who like a feeling of being adequately covered. Breathes very nicely as even on warm days as they pull off easily and your hands stay dry. Have had them for just over a month now and the leather is softening up very well. Fits perfectly, expect for the thumbs which are just slightly longer than usual...not a major problem but hitting the flicker may take a little bit of practice. Even with the extra padding on the palm, they don't have a feeling of "scrunching up" whilst on the throttle. Good value for money purchase. I think these are the type of gloves that should fir better once they have aged in a bit.
Good beginner glove.
I haven't worn enough gloves to provide a real comparison, but first impressions are good.<br /><br />I'm not a huge fan of the seams on the inside on the fingertips, attempting to divide your nails from your fingers, but it's something you can overlook.<br /><br />Also, it may just be my hands, but the thumb and little finger are a hair too long, while the rest of the fingers are a hair short. Again it's probably my hands.<br /><br />I haven't gone down at all yet, and I don't intend to, but if (or when) I do, I feel like these gloves will give me some decent protection. They won't do you any good in the rain, but if you expect your hands to stay dry with ventilated gloves, you have been somewhat....mis-informed.<br /><br />All-in-all, a great buy if you need an inexpensive glove to keep your hands from becoming hand-burger in the event of a crash.<br /><br />Recommended.
Great Gloves!
These are my first pair of riding gloves, and after 1,000 miles I'm not disappointed!<br /><br />These gloves look great, feel great, and have all around protection.<br /><br />Only minor issue I have is airflow. These gloves have decent airflow, but in the peak of summer, my hands sweat slightly when commuting (I have not gotten any black residue on my hands like some reviews claim). Overall, it's not enough to be a real problem. <br /><br />Used these in cool 70 degree mornings and 90 degree afternoons comfortably.<br />Great for spring/summer/fall.<br /><br />Gloves felt a tad tight at first, but broke in very quickly. Size scale was accurate for me.<br /><br />Highly recommended!
Definitely worth the price!
Bought these gloves thinking they were going to be uncomfortable but after wearing them for a while it was like i didn't have gloves on. Really like the product.
Excellent gloves
Fit well, feel well, and are very comfortable on long rides. Mine took about 2 weeks to break in and now they are excellent.
good protection at this price point
These are a great pair of gloves for under $50. They provide good protection and did not really need to be broken in all that much. They fit true to to the sizing chart for me and will be my go to gloves as long as the temps are above 50 degrees or so.
Comfort and protection
I've used these gloves in weather ranging from 30 degrees up to the 90's and they worked well in both extremes. They look good but more importantly the functionality is great. Brand new they have a true fit and great flexion, not stiff at all and once you break them in they're even more comfortable. So far no issues with the stitching.
Great value
Was on a mission to get a starter gear set built up on a somewhat small budget. Purchased these gloves and have been very pleased with them.<br /><br />At first I had some concern because the knuckle protection was hitting my knuckles when I would make a fist but after breaking them in that went away. May have just been a sizing issue as well but again was the first time I had measured and ordered gloves.<br /><br />They are super comfortable and its hard to beat the look. Definitely get lots of compliments on them.<br /><br />No wrecks yet (knock on wood) so hard to speak for the protection but have worn them for 2k miles now and other then changing from being broken in they still look like new.<br /><br />As far as air flow its great if you open your hand. With the fingers together and on the grips you don't get much airflow between the fingers. It has actually helped me as they are my only pair of gloves and I have done some riding in mid 30 degree temperatures with only my thumbs really going numb to the point of pain.<br /><br />I would recommend these gloves to anybody, they are great.
Well made gloves
Love these gloves. It keeps your hands warm and less fatigue experienced.
Fit is too small and inconsistent between gloves.
For some odd reason the thumb for my size was bit too long and its hard to use turn signals and ignition. Feels odd but verall okay gloves.
Nice gloves
I like them but size up 1 or 2, they run a little small. I'm still breaking them in but I like them.
Liked them so much I've bought them twice
Second pair of these gloves. The first ones lasted 4 years and many miles. These are the exact same product and I like that. Hard to beat at the price point. They're not too thin, not too stiff. They might fit a bit tight when you get them, but they break in beautifully.<br /><br />I know they're street gloves, but they've been on a few trail adventures with me and the supermoto and held up nicely.
Well built glove, comfortable and have faith that they will hold up to any abuse that comes its way.
Great gloves!
Great gloves...my son loves them!
comfortable
good fit and pretty comfortable. they don't have screen compatible finger tips but overall good comfortable glove for the money
So far, so good
So far, so good. I'm glad I went with one size up. They feel great and offer good knuckle protection. Let's see how long they last.
Good gloves. I like the looks & feel of these gloves. I can feel the hand grips better than my previous non-mc gloves and they help to reduce the vibrations. They are not warm weather gloves though. I went for a late morning, out of town jaunt in Wyoming with upper 30-degree temp and 20 mph+ winds and had to stop and warm my hands 30 miles out. Fingers went numb. Decided to turn around and went back into town. My hands stayed warmer at slower in town speed. Good gloves but not for those temps.
Good glove
Nice warm protective fit good they just make you a little bit clumsy but that is what it is
Great Gloves
Very comfy pair of gloves
Does what I want it to do
This is a nice, solid piece of gear. It looks nicer in person than it does in the pics. Haven't taken a fall yet but i can throw punches at things and barely feel it. Great for a beginner.
Gloves I loves
Super good feel to them and I followed the chart, they fit almost perfectly. Been using it in the colder 40-the 50s and they are just fine for shorter trips.
Premium Look & Feel with protection and value for money.
I love it. They feel strong, comfortable and looks premium & stylish. Many people were impressed by the looks and asked me for the brand & model.<br /><br />On the cons, I'd been happy if they had touchscreen ready fingers.
Awesome Gloves for the Price
For the price, these gloves are a great deal and they are super comfortable. It is rare to get a goatskin glove at this price point. Fits perfect and dexterity is not effected as much as other gloves I have used. The expansion panel really takes the pressure off the knuckles which is a problem with a lot of gloves for me since I have wider hands than average and it normally leads to issues with glove fit. I measured right on 8" and ordered the large. Have not been in hot weather yet but I don't think they'll be too bad, similar to any other armored glove. Only giving four stars since they are made in Pakistan. Only made in USA gets five stars.
Never disappointed with scorpion gear and these gloves are superb!
Good Glove
Seems like a nice glove. 4 stars because Ive only ridden less than 500 miles with these gloves. Fit seems to be ok. I got XL which fits great everywhere except my thumb and pinkie finger. That my issue . All gloves fit me that way .
Good gloves. I ride in florida and these dont give me issues with feeling too hot. So far pretty comfortable
Excellent for chilly to very warm weather
Very comfortable, maintain a comfortable temperature in lots of weather. Short trips, long trips, doesnt matter with these easy to get on and off and dont get uncomfortable even after a 10hour ride. they're not waterproof (they're not expected to be) but even in heavy rain the hands stay warm even though they get wet. about 6 hours on a fan will dry them out from being soaked. kept me warm in 14C weather and dont get hot till 30C, hotter than that holding my hand in the wind to let the air go through the air holes every several minutes cools them down no problem. Thing to note: these are not gauntlets they'll let wind blow up your sleeves if you dont have tight fitting cuffs.
Great product
Great gloves. Fits normal and keeps your hands cool. Soft and comfortable
Awesome gloves
The glove feel awesome, the fit is on point. I thought the gloves wouldn't breathe well but I was wrong. My hands are cool and fresh
Best gloves
Everything you want in a glove
Gloves fit great. They are comfortable and seem durable
Gloves fit tight as they should during break in period. Great durable glove. Big fan of these. Very well made
Great gloves!
Fit was true, pre-formed so no break in time, well vented, and very comfortable!
Im happy with the buy
Gloves were comfortable, fit very well for my hands. Id say my hands are average size. Im 511 190lbs. Athletic build so the large was perfect for me.
Black and white version
Happy with this purchase, the gloves fit snug but can easily reach the controls. Breaking in nicely. Overall satisfied with this purchase.
Great Gloves!
So far so good with these gloves! Although a little stiff @ the beginning, it was easy to break them in. Lots of tech/padding.
Great gloves
Fit is true. <br />I was riding on the freeway and it was 44 degrees and the wind stayed out of my gloves. A+
Quality glove for a good price
Glove fits true to the sizing chart. I usually wear an XL mens glove (snowboarding, winter, etc.) and this is no different. <br /><br />These gloves look nice and seem to provide sufficient coverage. I've ridden in them down to 55 degrees F and they were warm enough for me, but I would likely not want to wear them in much cooler weather.
Good quality for the price
Well made<br />In ordered a large, had to switch to X large<br />Theyre pretty stiff, but havent broken in yet (less than one month riding)<br />If they loosen up theyll be perfect
Very nice.
Very good overall, not much more to say that hasn't been said already. I got them in white. I do not know how well the color will last. I also question how well the rubber finger nail protector things will stay on (visible in the pictures). But, so far these gloves have been great, would recommend any time of day except on holidays.
Sizing was off by a lot. Supposed to be a 2XL and they are way too big. Go small.
Good fit
I wear/ordered a large, fits true. Leather feels good and the sewen in pads are a nice touch on the palm. Wore them cple times for about 10 min breaking them in a little. I've worn them 4-5 times on the bike so far and wouldn't hesitate to purchase again.
Fit nice, feel good but are cold
These gloves fit very well. The leather is nice. But at 50F and below they are really cold even with heated grips and hand guards. Not bad for the money.
Bang for the buck
These gloves are very good. Luckily I havent had to test their legitimate durability, but that being said they feel tough and the leather is thick and stitched nicely. Take a little time to break in, which Means the leather is good. Id recommend these as a good pair of gloves that arent going to break the bank.
Gloves are durable and fit true to size
Very comfortable and durable so far. Size was as expected.
The gloves are very high quality and look sharp as well, definitely recommend.
Very comfortable gloves. I would get a next size up.<br />Would buy again.
Excellent Bang For Your Buck Folks
I absolutely love this, and love them even more because they look and feel like gloves well over the $100 mark. <br /><br />Fit is a touch on the small side. I have average hands for a guy and the fit was a little tight at a medium, but I know they loosen some because theyre leather, and Id rather have a touch on the small side versus too loose. <br /><br />Love the hard plastic knuckle protector and wrist guards, and just really like the overall design of these. They seem to offer great protection without being too bulky or looking like something out of a transformers movie.
Great gloves for the price
You can't go wrong with Scorpion products. At this price point, these are great gloves. My only complaint is that the whole glove fits well except for the fingers, which are slightly too long for me. But I'm sure they would fit someone else perfectly so I won't blame Scorpion for that. It is not a big enough of a deal for me not to wear them, though. They breathe pretty well for leather gloves. I have rode with them in 90 degree sunny weather with high humidity and my hands weren't very sweaty after an hour.
Good protection and air flow for little money.
I purchased this gloves after seeing a review from Ryan F9 at FortNines youtube channel. They offer great protection and have good ventilation. Whats best is the price, very affordable.
simple gloves that work
these gloves just work. super comfortable. just follow the sizing chart and you'll be fine. perfectly happy with these
Nice gloves
Have ridden about 500 miles with these gloves, all is good so far, they look great are easy to get on and off, you can still feel controls with your fingers and they seem well made like they will hold up for a long time. I would buy again, for the money they would be hard to beat.
