GiroMonaco II Gel Glove(Return to Product Page)

Fairly standard glove with the exception of the Pittard's leather palm, which grips like no other gloves I've used before. Giro seems to be making their gloves smaller lately, so I would definitely size up.

Other reviews note that they fit small. While true, you will also find that they relax (stretch may be too strong). When your hands are a little damp after 50 miles peel these off; don't expect them to slide off like the skin off a banana

Something about these glove doesn't fit correctly so that I experience radial (thumb/forefingers) numbness. They just feel too tight despite measuring and following the size chart. Also, I got the black ones and due to the Tennessee summer heat my palms are are discolored from the dye.

Its like Im not even wearing gloves

I use this glove for road cycling. Typically ride 150 to 200 miles a week. The padding on the palm helps relieve the compression of the ulnar nerve. A pair lasts me about 6 months through multiple washings. The cloth on the thumb is useful for wiping sweat from the face. The only problem I have had is with those with black material that bleeds through to the hands the first few times they are used.

Picked these up for the gel padding and namequality. I'm very happy with them for summer gloves. Wore them on the Crater Lake Century this year, and my hands did well in them. Washed them multiple times and they continue to hold up.

Great gloves. Very soft and molds well to your hands. Just weird that when washing, there's a ton of dye coming out. Best to not mix with other stuff when washing. Overall love the comfort and breathability the gloves provide. Order 1 size bigger

Was throughly pleased with these gloves. The quality and appearance was great and the gel feels very substantial. Don't have tons of miles on them but I can tell they are much more substantial than my last ones. Only downside is that my normal L hands really needed XL for this brand.

Due to the winter temperatures, I have not yet used the gloves. They fit, maybe a bit snug, but I suspect they will stretch. They appear to be as durable as the Giro gloves they replace. The padding is well placed, seemingly, better placed for the way I generally have my hands on my bike's flat handlebars.

Nice gloves....Order a size bigger. I've always worn a medium for any gloves I have ever worn, but I needed to send these back for a large.

I've tried most of the high end gloves out there and typically prefer less padding; however, these gloves fit so well with the gel pads placed so perfectly that I rushed to buy 3 pair and have retired many of my old favorites. I hope that these gloves will always be available!

Rode a few times!! Did a 100 mile race and pulled gloves off when they ripped !!

Giro Monaco glove was improved with this version. I've used the original Monaco gloves for several years and love the fit and the performance on the bike. The look great as well!

These gloves have held up well over a full season However they seem to run a bit small. By the recommended measurement system I should have been a mid range medium. I couldn�t get my hand into a medium. Reordered large and all was well. I did experience a bit of black transfer to my hands during the first sweaty use.

Good material, snug fit and smooth, i could have gone a size bigger.

They are great they fit good seem pretty solid construction no complaints so far ????

These are nice well padded gloves but the sizing is extremely small. I've got large hands and in most brands XL is fine. These were way too tight. I ended up giving them to my son and he likes them.

I have had several pairs of these gloves in the past, but I was hesitant because of the reviews that said that they fell apart after only a few rides. I have several hundred miles on them and they have no sign of wear to date.

After a summer of riding, these gloves have performed well. They do run small so order up a size. The padding in the palm is where it needs to be without being excessive. They are the best gloves I have ever worn in over 50 years of riding. Catching them on sale, thanks btd!

My hands measured in the middle of the range for the medium size. I could not even get my hands into a medium sized glove. The large size are quite snug and have to be peeled off with the finger pulls.

The gloves are quite durable and provide a good padded feel on the bars. I would buy them again. Large size of course??
