I love these gloves.  The leather is extremely soft and supple and of high quality.  The gloves are very thin and one has full dexterity of the digits.  Padded palms for easy gripping.  The velcro is of high quality as well, and I've had problems with other cut-off gloves in that after a few uses the velcro becomes too worn to stick.  The longevity of the gloves may be the only issue after many uses, they may only last a couple to three months depending on how much the user wears them.  For less than $20.00, however, even if they're worn out in a couple months, they are invaluable to some one who uses them frequently and is relatively inexpensive in this regard.  5 stars.  Highly recommended.
