THE NEW SIMI gloves from 100% use perforated leather on the back of the hand for protection and a thin Clarino palm for maximum grip and feel, and look very similar to Giro's excellent Remedy Xs.
The cut is good, and we really like the oversized
Velcro closure on the outside of the hand, which allows for a close fit.
Padding in all the right places helps protect the back of the hand should you
take a spill.
Unlike other brands that use clumpy fabric on the
fingertips, 100% use a tech thread on the thumb and index finger for
touchscreen compatibility, though we did snag the thumb fabric on ours on a
gear cable, leaving us wondering how much longer it'll last.
The overall feel is great and
there's enough protection on the back of the hand to ward off brambles without
it feeling clumpy or obtrusive, while the thin palm with its perforations feels
great on the bar.
