Sub standard
Poor quality is the only phrase to describe these mitts, stitching coming undone & Rapha logo’s peeling off each hand after a dozen rides over a few weeks.

Glue issues and arduous to take off
Fabric seem cheap. Logo came off on the second, super hot Austin hill ride. The glue can’t take the heat. Not easy to take off if you have larger hands.

Split after two rides
Great looking pair of mits - I am assuming made for the pro peloton.
My problem is that they split at the seam after two rides, I am assuming they are made for only pro tides wearing them limited times. Sent them back and will buy cheaper more robust gloves in the future. Maybe I had a faulty pair - either way, disappointed.

Simple and breathable
I purchased these gloves to get a minimalistic look while protecting my hands in case of a fall. The material is light and breathable and fit very well to my smaller hands (I got the XS). I don't even notice them once I have them on and my hands do not get hot and sweaty. There is some minor amount of padding which is nice but I have never had issues with hand soreness while riding so the padding is not a deal breaker for me. I would highly suggest these gloves if you are looking for a good summer riding glove.

Not worth the price.
Worn it a couple of times during the summer season and the logo started to peel off. I hand washed them and hung them to dry too. Glove fits and feels awesome just a cheap logo glue job.

Disappointing for the price
Light and practical mitts that keep me cool and sweat free in most weather. After the first couple of rides when the material rubbed the webbed area next to my thumbs, it was easy to forget that I was wearing them.
The stitching is looking a little worn after 10 rides or so and the Rapha logo on the outside has come off completely! I think I’ll be looking to buy a different brand of mitts when these eventually fall apart.

Very comfortable gloves.
These are comfortable and perfect for those hot summer days. However, I have noticed that the stitching is starting to come undone.

Logo rips off
The logos start to come off after a couple of hours of use and it will soon look very bad. Just finally took them completely off, which is a shame. Otherwise it’s a nice and light glove with clever details. For maximum comfort I would go for something thicker but this is good as it is. Hope the logo will be updated in future versions for something more permanent.

Nice style and comfort, snug fit
Pros - style, comfort, no huge gel pads in the palm!
Cons - fits snug (almost tight), manufacture quality is marginal. I tore a seam the very first time I used these gloves. Decided against returning for an exchange due to the hassle and the seam was a non-critical part of the glove (top of the hand)

Good, but not great and not usual Rapha standard
Not bad, not the best though. I really love Rapha kit and own a lot of it, but these mits - they just aren’t quite it. Quite thin which is good, and no silly Velcro fastener. But the logo is coming off after only 3 rides, which looks messy.

Lightweight & comfortable
I took a gamble & choose a size large & feel the sizing is accurate. Great lightweight feel with a bit of stretch built in & a lightly padded palm that is more comfortable & grippy than I expected. Easy to get on & off.

what a pity
They look very nice, but I use them for a month during my weekly ride and they are already unstitched, and I washed them only by hand... In my opinion the padding on the palm of the hand is too thin

Not great but not rubbish !
The mits themselves or quite comfortable for normal road riding conditions. But I found my hands got quite fatigued on fast switch backed descents due to the lack of padding. Also the Rapha logo really needs addressing as it started to peel off, after only two low temperature washes. And to be fair to Rapha they offered me a return and full refund, or to keep them and have a credit towards something else, which I took.
So 2 out of 5 for the gloves but 5 out of 5 for customer service.

Nice gloves, shame about the logo peeling
I really like these gloves. Great fit. Not sure the price is justified. Logos started peeling very quickly. It the quality I expected from Rapha.

Core mitts
I am a big Rapha fan but I disappointed to discover a tear in a seam on the palm of these gloves after just wearing three times.

Poor stitching lets them down
I want to love these but they’re just too flimsy.
First pair split as soon as I put them on. Stitching is just to weak.

Decent no frills mitts
These are well made, comfortable mitts perfect for every day riding in Spring to Autumn. Lightweight and stylish. I haven’t had any issues with the Rapha name peeling off though they are only a couple of months old. Some padding but not too much. I would prefer the loops for removing to be a little larger as they are hard to find, but overall I’m pleased. You could get cheaper to the same standard from other brands but I like the Rapha name and style 🤩🚲
