Wait and see!
I haven’t worn them yet but I am hoping they are more resilient than the last pair I bought for £60. They split along some seems after 2 rides. Had them professionally sewn. Then more splits. Rapha eventually agreed to replace them. But they too have not worn well on the seams and more splits have appeared. And yes, they are not too small. I’m told this new pair I ordered have been strengthened. I do hope so. I would not have bought them if not in the sale.

Great mitts, but size up
Just the right amount of padding for rough asphalt. The distribution of padding is unique. Sometimes padding can actually be worse than nothing because it can end up putting pressure on nerves. Rapha seems to have gotten it right with these mitts.
Size up. Following the guide, I ordered medium, but they were really tight. I gave them to my wife, who loves them. I ordered large, and they fit perfectly.

Golden Gloves!
Putting on gloves before a ride shouldn’t be this eventful; however, after I slip these on, I always take a moment to marvel at how luxurious they look and feel.
On the bike, functionality is peerless. The padding is perfectly placed and all day comfort is guaranteed.
The price point may cause pause for some, but after a few rides, it’s clear that it’s money well spent.

Reports on here say these are Very Small for the sizing. I'd say they're just Small for the usual Rapha glove chart. I've had about 5 in various styles, Winter and Summer, and all have lasted well when you take care of them. The pad on these is great on initial rides. Warmer Irish weather would help... soon hopefully.

A Tad Neat
I have the Brevet long finger gloves in a small and they are a great fit, don’t know what has happened to these. I checked the measurements before purchasing and all good, gloves arrived, bit neat. To buy a medium might be too big. Hopefully the mitts will stretch a bit, all it would need.

A really comfortable set of gloves
These gloves fit perfectly and are soft to the touch without any annoying seams or pressure points. The glove fits the contours of my hands without any saggy spots. The result is a glove that I can wear all day without numbness and take off easily, reuse the next day without any issue.

New favourite mitts
size small felt too tight at first , after 1 ride feel like a second skin don't move around on your hands even after a couple of hours. padding excellent and does a great job of keeping tingles at bay , reflective bands excellent especially when indicating after dark

Tight fitting but instil confidence and look great
I have had some classic hits and so pro-team race its. These are the best balance of the two, with a tight race fit but some good padding where you need it. The quality is as you would expect and the design looks really cool. Great product.

they dress small
I have always bought the large size of other brands and have always enjoyed it. The size L of these Rapha gloves has disappointed me for now. I hope that over time they will expand a little. ... used once can I be replaced with an XL?

Great autumn/spring gloves
Great gloves for the autumn and spring time. Padding is the right amount. Only drawback is the velcro straps. If you match them full they bite so much they are hard to take off. Might wear off after several uses.

Difficult stitching
Actually very nice mitts. If there would not be the problem with the stitching, they would be perfect. It came lose on all of the three pairs i tried, the one i kept, the reflecting parts started to come of.

Loose stitching
Enjoying these mitts immensely. Only issue I had with them is after my first use one of the ring finger holes side stitching started to unravel. I sewed it up and currently have no other issues with it.

Great quality but small
Absolutely love the style and quality of these.
Downside is they are tight / small.
I do normally get as large as I can but biggest here is XL. I have kind of got away with it but.....

Great commuting gloves
After crashing a couple years ago without gloves, I never ride without them. I use the brevet mitts for commuting: comfortable, great fit and at night the reflective band helps a ton.

Good but expensive
Purchase was a self indulgence as they match my jersey. Very expensive compared to other gloves available.
Very comfortable, minimalist style. Padding seems to be in right places.

Does not warrant the steep price
These gloves are fine, but not superior in any way that warrants the steep price. The velcro strap over the wrist is a little uncomfortable. But they look good and do a fine job.

Great fit.
I own a few different styles of gloves from Rapha and I’m always please with the fit, craftsmanship and durability. Ive actually stopped buying other brands. Highly recommend

Great mitts - smaller than expected
I've been on 2x60km rides and they are really comfortable and stopped the pain in my hands.
I would size up compared to the size guide as they are slightly tight

Love these!
I love these, been through quite a few different brands and these are my favourite yet, snug fit, great padding and secure tabs to pull them off. Not cheap though.

they provide excellent padding but are very small fitting, according to the sizing I was on the edge of Medium/Large and brought Large. Should have brought XL

The XL is pretty small
Love the stripes on them so when I make hand signals/turns, drivers can see it. But...the XL is really tight, so I'll end up giving them to my wife.

Not happy.
Very sorry to say these gloves began to fall apart after about a dozen rides. Holes in one, stitching unraveling in the other. Very disappointed.

Comfy, Padded, Breathable & Lightweight
Fits well, great for eliminating road buzz on long rides. Very comfortable, also helps to wear a pair of gloves to work in new bar tape.

Sizing issue
The size guide appears to be very tight. I measured and was comfortably a large size but the brevet Mitts are incredibly tight to wear

Light weight and good for endurance rides
I bought large. My bad. They are a bit too small. Nevertheless they are durable and light weight yet great for Century Rides.

For hot weather rides
Small in size and little insulation. The pictures looked like some insulation on the back hand, but they are very thin.
