I bought a pair about a month ago. Fit and feel are excellent for the price. Zero issues with dye bleed and I definitely would not be able to pull them off with the wrist strap secured.
First time I wear a size medium with Evo4 I normaly wear a large . For me the gloves fit perfect like a second skin. The armor is im all the right spots and supports my hand on the bars with a great grip possitioning and feel. Every other glove I looked @ was double the price but I thought the Evo4's were the better choice. Time will tell.
Came to the same conclusion as yourself,, with the price for protection with the alpinestars GP pro I've worn ,,but get 2 pairs of these with the money 🤑🤑,,be getting a pair of these and UK made others send products away but wanted premium money still ,☘️☘️ from northern Ireland 😁
Hi. Great video. Have you noticed you were able to put the glove on with the wrist closure closed. I bought a pair and can fully tighten the wrist closures and still be able to easily remove the glove. This is because there is a stretch panel on the wrist right at the wrist closure. Ridiculous design flaw. I returned mine. Can you tighten up all the closures and slip your glove off?
@@garyflowers9 no worries, thanks for viewing. I have noticed some inconsistencies in their manufacturing though so that could be another explanation. The Evo R should have been the same sizing, can't remember now if it came up bigger or smaller but it was miles off.
@@hast42 they're doing very well, still very comfortable and look great but I only use them in dry weather and have put around 3k miles into them. Thanks for watching.
How do you like them after riding with them for about a month now? How do they compare comfort wise to your old dainese gloves? Lastly i have to say great little review.
Thank you, that's very kind. The RST are so far very good, very comfortable and no signs of any issues. I haven't put a huge amount of time in to them yet (around 3 hrs) as the mornings here in the UK are still a bit cold to wear these, hopefully in the coming weeks I can wear them more as the temperature rises. Comfort wise, they are very comfortable, they're a good fit for me but my Dainese will be very hard to beat, maybe impossible. For the money I've paid I'm extremely happy with them and I am very confident they will prove to be a great summer glove. If money was no object I would find a pair of Dainese with the same features but I'd need to spend 3 times more. I hope this helps, thanks again.
Any issues with dye bleeding? My hands would get black/purple from the previous tracech glove. Have had them for a couple years now and it never really stopped. My hands tend to get sweaty when riding but another pair of Held Phantom gloves don't have this issue. I'm interested in these new ones but I can't live with my hands getting 'inked' every ride haha
I hope not, I honestly can't say at the moment though as it's not warm enough yet for my hands to start sweating. Hopefully it'll warm up in the coming weeks and I'll be able to give you a update on the gloves.
@@gtewewrrrrrr sorry for the delayed update but the weather has only just picked up enough for me to thoroughly try these gloves. Unfortunately I can confirm that they do suffer from some dye bleeding. My hands weren't particularly sweaty but still had some dye transfer.
@@Shrekeo No worries! Thanks for updating me, too bad they bleed dye. Maybe it will stop eventually, but in my experience it did not. Back to using my old pair of Held Phantoms for now, been eyeballing the newest Held Titan RR for a while so might just spend the cash for those, haha. Happy riding!
Was the Evo R’s wrist gauntlet hard/rigid? I just sent mine back and picked up the Evo IV and it seems like the gauntlet is much more soft and malleable.
Hi, I just tested for you as I didn't know myself. I can confirm that they did not work with my Pixel 6 or a iPhone XR, neither screen responded at all.
They seem to be nice and cool, obviously could get a cooler glove if I bought a short pair. Nice air flow between the fingers but do still have some dye transfer to my hands when it's warm.
I personally think they come up a little on the large side. My palm measures 9cm across and going by the size guide on Sportsbikeshop I should just about be wearing a large. I wear a large in Dainese but the large in these Evo 4 gloves was huge on me so I returned them and kept the medium. Sportsbikeshop do free returns so I'd say order your 2 most likely sizes.
