Joe RocketMen's Eclipse Gloves

I already had a pair of these that were not touch screen capable and they are great summer gloves. The gloves I received were also not touch screen capable, so, I immediately returned them.

Gloves offer good protection. Go with a size larger to get best fit.

They fit good.... But, When they get wet from a little rain they dyed my hands the color of the glove which is disappointing. I should of got the black joe rocket gloves.

First impression on removing them from the package was that they are very light weight. I wasn't even sure if it was real leather.My hands have weirdly long fingers, and I get XL even though the palm measures for M-L. So, I soaked these, and dried them to shrink them a bit. The leather shrunk nicely, and they are a little thicker now. Also some of the brown dye came out of the leather during the soak. They fit really well now.Interestingly, the fingers without the extra pad work great on all of my touch screens, and even the track pad on my laptop. The index finger has an extra leather pad that is supposedly for touch screens, and it doesn't work well at all. They would have been better leaving it off. Still the glove works with touch screens if you don't bother with the index finger. I can deal. To be honest for this price I would buy them again. As long as it works on my screens I'm good.I have seen a few reviews from riders that had these in accidents, and while the gloves were shredded the hands came out okay. That's good enough for me.I will certainly follow up on this review after I've ridden a season with these gloves.Edit 8/29/22:I really like these gloves. Over the last year they have broken in nicely, and the leather feels more confidence inspiring.

I buy a new pair of these gloves every other year. They are comfortable, not bulky, and reasonable priced. They need to be broken in before the ability to use on a touch screen is reliable. My only issue with them has been that the dye bleeds all over your hands when the gloves get wet from rain (it hasn't happened from sweat). I buy new ones every other year because that's when they wear out near the heel of the hand (base of the palm).

Highly recommend!

The gloves come packaged as a retail pack clipped to a cardboard for hanging. The clip is quite strong and should work well as a positive, fumble resistant way to keep them together.The pair I received fit just fine and seem very flexible. The wrist could be about an inch longer as the base of the velcro strap pokes into the hollow at the base of my thumb. That strap looks like an afterthought anyway. I will probably not use it, or possibly just make a replacement because they do feel fine to me.As a protective device, I'll go with another reviewer in that it looks good for road debris but in a fall, you might save one half to one degree of injury over bare hands.Yes, the dye is bleeding off even after a half hour of wear. We'll see how long that lasts. BTW the instructions say do not wash. Anyway, they'll do for casual riding but they're a far cry from my last pair of Rocket gloves from 2006.

These are basic and fairly thin and simple gloves. I wouldn't want to crash in them, but they would be 1000 times better than crashing with bare hands. The palms and inside fingers are nice soft leather, but a little on the thin side. There's some TPU padding for the knuckles, and the rest of the back is just fabric. They are breathable for warm weather. I usually wear heavier gloves that offer more protection, but these are a great option for low-risk riding and for weather too hot for normal gloves.The leather is soft, a bit thin, and slippery when new. These aren't premium and they aren't super tough, but they are a good value. There is some very tiny padding on the palm, which helps a tiny bit for hand numbness.Sizing runs a little small. I can wear 2XL in other Joe Rocket gloves and XL or 2XL in most other brands. I bought 3XL for these based on earlier comments and it's about right - tiny bit loose, but I doubt 2XL would fit at all.

Llevo mas de año y medio con ellos, de uso diario y aun no hay nada roto o descosido!! Me sorprendieron mucho! Excelentes!

I have used Zeus biking gloves which got torn out within a year after regular use of 5 day a week commute to office which is 15 kms from my house. Also Inhad used Alpinestars but they also got worn out in a year. These are one of the best biking gloves available in India. I have been using them for past 1 year. One recommendation would be that take a size bigger than your usual size. The gloves very easy to wear and comfortable and also the ergonomics are too good.

The finish is great and quality made. The fit is not that great if you have Indian size hands lol. But I'm 5'10 and the large fits well just a bit off on the thumbs. All in all a great pair of gloves!

Están muy bonitos, muy cómodos y transpirables.. pero considero que en una caída en la moto.. difícilmente aguantaría para protección en las manos

As usual, great quality product from Joe rocket.. Buy a couple of sizes bigger than you wear for your usually fitting gloves.. Thank you Amazon for I your timely and assured delivery
