Hi. I've used them everytime I ride. They are still in great condition. If they get dirty or smelly I wash them and dry in low heat delicate mode. Fingers fit great.
The Flou Red looks more orange in the pictures than in real life. In the reviews of my boots a lot of people say it looks orange, but it looks pretty red to me. I think it depends on how sensitive your eyes are to color, but when I put my boots on photoshop and check the RGB values its almost max value of red with a little bit of blue and green. It would need to have a lot more blue in the RGB value for it to be considered orange. Photo shop also shows that in person in both bright light and in shadow it is still more red than the picture online.
