Air Glove - Men's

My “Go To” MTB Glove

Familiarity:

I've put it through the wringer

I can easily get a few seasons out of these gloves. Perfect grip and very durable.

Cheap stitching and the abrasion protect

Familiarity:

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

Size Bought:

Medium

The stitching on this product was so cheap. It ripped one the first time I tried it on. Also, the abrasion protecting that is normally on this product is missing from this version which makes this product very thin and offers no protection from the elements.

Skip Them

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

Size Bought:

L

I normally wear short finger in warmer weather and have various long finger gloves for colder temps. These are not very good below 60. Not even sure where to start. The wrist straps are for the daintiest of hands. I normally buy an M or an L. Knowing TL tends to run small I bought the L. Strap was still too small as it barely has any velcro attaching to the other side. The placement of the strap is horrible too, bumps uncomfortably against watch or long sleeve jersey. The weird webbing on the top part of the palm is airy but not too comfy. Putting the glove on -- a finger nail or three often gets stuck toward the end of the finger where the material changes. I've had them for a half dozen 1-2hr rides and I don't even see keeping them through a single season.

Great feel, good grip and lite weight

Fits like a glove.

I liked them so much I bought a second pair in a different color.

They shed little black pieces :(

I have 3 pairs of TLD gloves. These are my least favorite. They work well and breathe ok. I have the black color and they shed little black pieces of fabric all over my handlebars. I will not buy this model again, nor would I recommend.

Absolutely LOVED all the prior air gloves and only ever had to replace them once the velcro wore out but these are trash. Stitching started to come undone within a month and now at 6 months I've had the fingertips rip open on a couple fingers. Overall, TLD products have become dog water...don't waste your money.

All I can say is the prior version of the air glove is way better in my opinion, wish they didn't ruin something that was awesome. I still like TLD stuff, but this glove definitely disappoints. The glove opening is too small so hard to put the glove on, the old glove had zero issues with this. The glove doesn't last as long period. I still have all of my old air gloves, probably 7 pairs, so I can honestly tell you these are a disappointment.

Good Grip, Little Protection

Familiarity:

Give good grip which is the main reason I bought these. However, they give very little protection and tear quite easily. Trails I mostly ride have a lot of thorn bushes and they shred these gloves up quite quickly. Had cut up hands too often. If you want good grip AND protection I recommend the Dakine Covert Gloves
