Very comfy, but the logo fell off…
Very comfy and have been really effective at protecting my hands. The only negative I can come up with is that the “Rapha” logo peeled off the right glove within about 2 hours of wearing (not an issue for me), and on the left glove, it has lasted just over 4 weeks of daily wear. It did worry me slightly about the overall quality, that the first logo lasted such a short time, but otherwise they’ve proven themselves to be very worthwhile.

Good mitts, good value
Good gloves for the money. They have some padding that is ok. I prefer Pro Team with no padding but these are fine. The logo does peel off, but it's just because of the placement right near a high stress area on the side of your palm. Not a big deal at all. The logo itself is a rubberized piece that is quality, if that matters. If it were placed more on a "flat" area, like the back of the hand, it wouldn't have this issue.

Snug fit
I followed the sizing guide, measured my hands and sent off for the extra small ones which surprised me as I'm normally a small with other brands. Anyway they for very snuggly, don't pinch between any of my fingers, which is often a problem, and are like a second skin to wear. They are quite difficult to remove and I'm not sure how long the removal tabs will last. All in all a good pair of mitts.

They'll last one season
These were a replacement Rapha reluctantly awarded me after my first pair fell apart after one season of use. The logos have never peeled like many others have stated but the frailness of materials used in this glove make it not worth the investment even at its low entry cost. I use the finger pull tabs as one should, but this gloves material is far to fragile.

Poor quality, thin gloves
I appreciate that these were the cheapest mitts but I was nevertheless pretty disappointed with them. Very thin fabric and minimal gel padding. I have paid the same kind of price from other brands and think the quality has been better. I have learnt my lesson and will buy a more expensive pair next time if choosing from Rapha.

These are ok, I expected more.
These are ok, probably expected more... They fit slightly big but were comfortable. The biggest problem was that the right glove ripped at the seem between the thumb and first finger. Frankly, I had them sewn here in Canada rather than sending them back. Disappointed that this happened. Likely a quality control issue.

Go to gloves
The gloves seem to be true to size, but I might have wanted something more form-fitting. However, as soon as I put my hands on the bar, they work great and I forget them.
There is not much padding in the palm, but it's well positioned, which suits me well.
The fabric breaths well and it's really comfortable.

Great mitts with fragile logo print
Great mitts that does the job well. Good padding in the palm of the hand and thin material on the top of the hand for good ventilation. Smart tabs on edge inside the mitt to make it easy to pull them of after rides. The white printed Rapha text will drop off within a week or two but that is mostly their loss.

Great Fit, Comfortable
These are a great fit, I went for the size that I expected and they were spot on. Comfortable for long days in the saddle, decent grip in the wet, and appear to be durable so far after 10+ machine washes, with no sight of the logo peeling which was mentioned by one or two other reviews

Good value
Comfortable gloves with even padding across the palm. The Rapha logos peeled off within a couple of weeks but I reckon they look better without logos.
I’m on my second pair now after the previous pair saved my palms from what would have been nasty gravel rash.
Good value.

Highly recommended
I was a bit sceptical about one style of glove to fit both men and women but (pardon the pun) these fit like a glove! They don’t chafe in between the fingers and are lightweight and comfortable. They wash well too. I would highly recommend them.

Classic and comfortable.
Lovely mitts. They look classic and understated. I usually find that mitts irritate and hurt between my fingers after a long ride but I haven't had that problem with these mitts at all. They are really comfortable. Minimal padding but sufficient.

Comfortable and good fit
The mitts fit very nicely on the hand, they don't constrict between the fingers, which can happen. They are comfortable, pleasantly breathable, and you don't even notice them during the ride, which is always a good sign. I recommend them.

Perfect fit
Struggled to find gloves that fit like a glove so to speak, always seem to be between sizes but these fit perfectly. They are accurate as per size guide. So yeah, very chuffed with these. Well made look good feel good. A great purchase

Signs of wear after first use
The gloves themselves are of good quality, however after wearing and washing them just once (as per care instructions) , the decals already came off. For this price, I would expect the build quality to be better and more sustainable.

Underperformed...
Overall nice quality but the Rapha logo has started peeling off on one of the gloves. I have barely worn them two or three times, and washed just as many times. I would have expected better quality for a pair of 40 dollar gloves.

Simple, comfortable - perfect.
Really simple, comfortable gloves. Nice fit which doesn’t bunch in your grip and has just the right level of padding. The Rapha writing came off after two washes (I was pleased as the white on black was a bit too much for me).

Could be better
comfy glove that after a few rides and washes the 'Rapha' logo has peeled off and seam stitching on index fingers is coming apart. Still useable, but could be better. XL is my normal size for gloves, but these are a touch big.

The Cool Gloves
I have ridden several times in these gloves. My hands never suffered from cramps during any of the rides. The gloves fit my hands nicely, almost like a second skin. I highly recommend these gloves to other cyclists.

Quality expected of cheapo gloves
Disappointing, thin around stitched areas, holes already forming and unravelled threading at finger tip ends. All after 2 rides totalling no more than 5 hours of riding. Won’t be using Rapha for mitts at least anymore

Pricey -- But Worth It
These gloves are pricey. But then again, all cycling gloves are pricey. However, I am hoping and do believe that these will last more than one season, which would be a good thing compared to other gloves I've had.

Great basic!
Looks simple but I like ‘m a lot! First impression of the fit was a bit wide, but they are perfect.
Quick dry, padding seems a bit thin, but no deaf fingers here after 100k gravel rides so must be good enough!

Nice gloves
The gloves fit well, are comfortable and the padding is adequate. Not much to say really, they're gloves, they don't feel better or worse than my Craft or Castelli gloves. Would I buy them again, maybe.

Still a great product but it stretch out too quick
Lightweight gloves with minimal padding. Good for wiping off sweat on your face, dries quick. My only gripe is that it stretched out too quickly (used less than 10x) and the Rapha sticker is peeling.

The go to riding mitt
Really impressed with the core mitts. Great fit (like a glove!!) and the padding adds just the right level of comfort. If you’re looking for a lightweight mitt, then you won’t do wrong by these 👌

Super comfy, light - you could possibly size down.
Super comfortable gloves, I went a size smaller than usual. Normally a large, I am very comfortable with the medium. Stretchy, light overs & great summer glove. I bought two pair they were so good!

Top gloves
My last white ones lasted about 4 years before they finally started to go at the edges. Hope to get the same value for money out of these. Very comfortable. Just right amount of grip.

OK.Decals coming off very quickly.
The mitts are ok. The decals on the sides (that says Rapha) are coming off after few weeks. They are bright white, so they are also very visible when they come off.
