These are great gloves with padding in all of the right spots. I originally ordered a medium but returned for a large when they arrived. Changing to these gloves along with a few other setup changes helped with my hands going numb. I love the finger pulls to use when taking them off too just wish they were in each finger and not just the middle and ring finger. Will order again when they wear out.
Amazon Customer –
I love these gloves

I have spent countless hours and tried numerous gym gloves in my pursuit of perfection. After going through at least a dozen pairs, I stumbled upon the Pearl Izumi Elite Gel Gloves, and I must say, these gloves are nothing short of exceptional!
While these gloves aren’t specifically designed for the gym, they have become my go-to choice for all my workouts. The first thing that caught my attention was their impeccable fit. These gloves feel like they were custom-made for my hands. The snug yet comfortable fit ensures that they stay in place, providing a secure grip throughout my entire workout session.
The materials used in these gloves are top-notch. The construction feels robust and durable, making them a long-lasting investment. The gel padding is strategically placed, providing excellent cushioning and shock absorption, which is crucial during intense lifting sessions or high-impact activities. I appreciate how the gloves protect my hands without compromising on flexibility and dexterity.
One of the standout features of the Pearl Izumi Elite Gel Gloves is their versatility. I initially purchased them for cycling, but I quickly realized they excel in other activities as well. Whether I’m hitting the weights, practicing yoga, or engaging in various cardio exercises, these gloves consistently deliver outstanding performance.
Despite not being designed specifically for the gym, these gloves have exceeded my expectations in every way. They provide the perfect combination of comfort, protection, and durability that I was seeking. The fact that they have stood the test of time with regular use only reinforces their exceptional quality.
To conclude, if you’re like me and have been on an endless quest for the perfect gym gloves, look no further. The Pearl Izumi Elite Gel Gloves offer an unparalleled fit, remarkable materials, and exceptional durability. I can confidently say that these gloves deserve a solid 5-star rating. Give them a try, and you won’t be disappointed!
Note: While these gloves work wonders in the gym, I recommend checking out Pearl Izumi’s dedicated gym glove line for specific gym-related needs.

Let me start off by addressing things I’ve read in myriad glove reviews. Firstly, cycling gloves, gel or not, are NEVER going to stop your hands from getting numb on a long ride. If your hands get numb, this generally means there’s just too much pressure on your hands, for too long and gloves won’t save you from this fate. On average, the only way to fix or mitigate numbness is to change your hand position on the bars often and/or, change your overall position on the bike. The latter is normally accomplished by moving your saddle slightly forward or changing your stem length. Either of these can impact multiple things, so you really need to take some care when going down this route. Try moving your saddle by a small amount first but make sure your leg position on the down stroke is still efficient. See if this helps the numbness. If so, you can start going further down this rabbit hole but you should consult a bike fitter. Secondly, cycling gloves are meant to be very snug. Not so much as to inhibit circulation but tight fitting on your hand. They aren’t meant to be removable by just sliding your hand out effortlessly. Finally, for the money, these are very good gloves. I have three sets of them and rotate through them during each week. They are well made and comfy. I also like some Castelli gloves too BUT they don’t seem to last as long as the Pearl Izumi Elites and they cost a little more.

Great quality
Pappy –
hand surgeon recommended bikers gloves after a recent palm surgery, we both agreed these haven’t got the gel we thought we’d get for the 104.00 price tag. I have purchased 20.00 gloves of better all around quality than these. very disappointing.**update** unlike most other returnable items on Amazon postage is paid unfortunately this vendor only provides the return address label and you have to pay postage to return, and an entire second page outlining return policies around the item to qualify for a return, i’ll update once again when i receive my refund.
Thomas S. Gentry –
I’ve always purchased Pearl Isumi bike gear. This choice was not the best one; the padding is minimal to say the least and long rides on a bike (40 – 50 miles) will result in some hand fatigue and pain wearing these gloves. I switched back to my 10-year old Pearl Izumi pair that are better than these gloves. My advice is to pass on these gloves if you are doing longer rides…short rides are no problem, that’s why the 3 stars. Otherwise, meh.
Buncha –
Feel comfortable and not numb when cycling
Doug –
I first noticed the cycling gloves were way too small. I ordered a men’s large, but the gloves were a child’s size. Then I noticed the gloves were very thin, with thin padding and a very flimsy Velcro wrist closure. I had to return them. This was disappointing, given the reputation that Pearl Izumi has in the cycling world.
Sqwibbs –
Nice gloves
mark paul –
This is the third time I’ve bought these large size gloves, and while I’ve been very happy with them in the past, the sizing on this pair is a problem for me. For some reason, the wrists on these are very tight. Although I have small wrists, I have trouble getting these on, and I’m only able to close the Velcro fasteners halfway. Plus, the seams are very stiff and scratchy, which makes it very uncomfortable getting these gloves on and off. I’ve always been a big fan of Pearl Izumi accessories, but I’m disappointed in these gloves, especially considering the premium price.
Dana W. –
Love these gloves. Replacing an old pair that I used for years. They are very comfortable with great padding. I bought an XL but they were tight so replaced with XXL. Perfect.

Pieter Loman –
I guess I ordered them too small. Moreover, quality not top. Stitches badly finished and bothering between the fingers. Velcro closure to small and flimsy. Asked for return. Amazon label now printed and waiting for the label of the seller. Already 2 days overdue. If not correct after the weekend, I will be forced to file a complaint. Disappointed in both product and seller. Pity.
Addition: return label arrived from seller. Posting tomorrow. Curious when return funding will arrive. I will update when done.
Update: Finally found a XXL size (not via Amazon) and now trying them out. I will not return these, since the size is OK, however, quality is still not what to expect from PI… Even the 2 gloves seems not the same size, the right one if a tad larger then the left. After measuring, indeed, about 5mm difference around the wrist. I owned a couple of the previous quality and those were perfect, thick gel padding, comfortable, one word, professional stuff. Unfortunately nowhere to be found anymore.
A call to Pearl Izumi to review the quality and revert to the “old” ones. Frankly, I prefer to pay a slightly higher price and to receive good quality, rather than counting on the usual good name of the brand and being disappointed. Pity…

These gloves are quite flimsy, I don’t think they’ll last long. The padding isn’t very thick either.
Disappointed, disillusioned, and disgusted.
Jeanne Rapalee –
Pearl Izumi is my favorite glove brand. Great quality that I can feel. This pair is a bit tight for my usual XL. Padding is good. Nice bright color. I always recommend Pearl Izumi for the Lifetime Warranty alone! I’ve enver used it after 30 years of buying their products.
Dazzle –
Perfect replacement for older pair of pearl izumi.
Amazon –
I’ve used cheap gloves, expensive gloves, and everything in between. These are my least favorite gloves. They fit really well and they’re comfortable. But the padding tends to bunch when you actually use your hands to grip your bike’s handlebars, so they’re not very comfortable when in use. But that’s not the worst part. The material isn’t very absorbent. I’m not a sweaty person. But my hands were constantly dripping wet from sweat while I wore these gloves (and the outdoor temp was only about 80). There are so many better options than these gloves, especially for this price point.
D. Gates –
After about six hours of use, I’m quite pleased with the comfort, look and quality of these gloves. Size seems a bit tight for and XL glove, but once on they feel fine. Good value at the sale price.
Mark K –
Just completed a century ride with these gloves. The gel is really nice.
Abraxas –
Very nice quality. I’ve been using PI gloves, clothing and shoes for cycling over the last 20 years and have come to rely on the quality and durability of the products. I just need to stop losing the gloves.

comfortable with less hand pain.

Arsenal1893 –
Fits nicely and great quality. Go one size higher to fit comfortably though I have “fat” fingers
RoadRider –
A lot of people mention the gloves are too tight. The opening of the glove is much smaller than other gloves I’ve worn, so they are hard to put on. I stretched the opening, which made it better, but still tight. The padding isn’t as “cushioning” as I expected.
If I was in a store and tried them on, they wouldn’t be my first choice.
Blair –
I’ve been riding these gloves for years over several iterations. Best glove out there. although too expensive, I usually hit the Prime sale for a great price.
Terry Jarrosak –
They are gloves. They work
Jonathan Bond –
Theres some type of plastic or sharp edged fabric in the glove where the attachment loop connecting to the packaging is sewn on. Scraped my hand pretty badly on first use.
OLDCMAN –
Sizes are way off Orderd a medium which was the size of me current Pearl zumi gloves The ordered medium gloves were so tight I could barely put my hands in Had to return and reorder a XL which fit great
Amazon Customer –
I t is my opinion these gloves are difficult to put on however they are very comfortable to wear.
Kris –
Little tight getting on and off but overall good fit.

Comfortable and good quality! These are padded on the palms with comfortably placed gel pads, and are well made. They fit big hands well.

A lot of people mention the gloves are too tight. The opening of the glove is much smaller than other gloves I’ve worn, so they are hard to put on. I stretched the opening, which made it better, but still tight. The padding isn’t as “cushioning” as I expected.
If I was in a store and tried them on, they wouldn’t be my first choice.

I’ve been riding these gloves for years over several iterations. Best glove out there. although too expensive, I usually hit the Prime sale for a great price.

Theres some type of plastic or sharp edged fabric in the glove where the attachment loop connecting to the packaging is sewn on. Scraped my hand pretty badly on first use.

Comfortable and good quality! These are padded on the palms with comfortably placed gel pads, and are well made. They fit big hands well.

The materials used in these gloves are top-notch. The construction feels robust and durable, making them a long-lasting investment. The gel padding is strategically placed, providing excellent cushioning and shock absorption, which is crucial during intense lifting sessions or high-impact activities.
