I like the web-knitting on the back of the hands. It allows perspiration to evaporate and keeps my hands cool. This is the second pair of gloves I've purchased. The first pair lasted 3 years (over 20,000 miles).

Planet Bike Taurus Cycling Gloves
Crochet backed gloves are some of my favorite riding accessories. Not only do they keep your hands cooler than regular gloves but you get a really strange tan in the summer that is sure to be a conversation starter where ever you go.
When I first received these gloves I was immediately impressed with the look and feel. They have Kevlar sewed into the heels of the gloves to give some added protection in the event of a fall or is it there for protection against a road raging driver with a gun? I hope I don't have to find out either way.
Like most crochet backed gloves I noticed that the sewn interface between the leather and nylon sections as well as the sewn interface between the nylon and cotton crochet areas at the ends of the materials are the weakest parts of the glove and I had some reinforcing sewn into those areas. That's not an issue specific to this brand of glove, I have that done on most of the gloves I wear since that is the area prone to fail first.
The Velcro strap surface area is large and provides a very secure feeling that the glove is not going to come undone when brushed against something.
Overall I am very happy with these gloves and I will be purchasing more in the future.

Great gloves, but they do run a size small..... I wear a large, and should have ordered the XL.

After I received the glove I couldn't help wondering if they were made for yuonger adults, say ~ 15-16 y/o? I ordered XL and I don't consider that I have huge hands for a guy. Yet, they feel very snug. The web backing gives them some stretch, so I hope that wearing will help shape them. I don't think they will last long though. But, for $10.00, they aren't worth bothering to send back and if I get a season out of them, they'll have beat gloves I bought for 5x as much!
I have yet to find a glove that my hands feel good after 10 or 15 miles of riding.
No surprises in this basic bike glove July 31, 2008

These gloves ran a little small, but were comfortable and cool with the netting back. The padding on the palm is adequate. A good choice for the recreational biker.
