Oakley MTB Factory Pilot Gloves, Factory Pilot Gloves, SI Assault Gloves, over the years there have been three different names for the same glove which is confusing in itself. Originally the Oakley MTB Factory Pilot Gloves came out in 2003 and they were designed for mountain biking. Then they disappointedly disappeared for a while. Then Oakley slightly tweaked them and brought them back and re-marketed them as tactical gloves. My first original pair was a size Medium, then I purchased the new updated tactical model and I now fit in a size Small, identical patterning, identical fit but the sizing tag changed, once again more confusion. Good thing that Oakley now make X-Smalls, especially if you like a snug performance precision fitment. Pretty much the only difference from the 2003 MTB original model and the tactical model was that Oakley went from synthetic leather and mesh with Kevlar padding palms to full perforated goatskin leather palms, and they took out the gray thin ventilating mesh material on the sides of the fingers. I have always sworn by the Oakley Factory Pilot Gloves, loved the fit, loved the quality and you can use them for pretty much anything. They have always been 5-Star gloves, BUT as of 2019+ they now have been downgraded to 3.5-Star gloves due to Oakley, unfortunately, making a poor decision and slight redesigning and utilizing lighter weight lesser quality materials. The 2019+ model now has thinner materials throughout which are NOT going to be nearly as durable, so the gloves will NOT last as long. The Carbon Fiber knuckles are now more flat and not as ergonomic or as comfortable as the previous successful design, the perforated goatskin leather is thinner as well and so is the silicone O badge. Feel free to go read the most recent reviews and you will see the unacceptable experiences of other loyal end-users. On the new Fall 2019 model I just purchased manufactured in Vietnam, the felt foam-backed liner material underneath the finger port vents has NOT been punched out to let interior warm air flow outwards, so now finger ventilation has been compromised. And if you try to cut-out the foam liner material underneath the finger port vents you will ruin the integrity of the gloves. I turned the gloves inside-out and I was disappointed to see some areas not stitch properly or stitch at all, I havent seen a lack of craftsmanship before in all the years of wearing these gloves. The one thing I always wanted Oakley to eventually update was adding finger tabs for touchscreen devices. The 2020 Oakley Factory Pilot Gloves 2.0 version that just came out added that needed modern feature but it does not work nearly well as expected due to poor execution. Unfortunately, the 2.0 version, has a different pattern and the fingers are now a quarter-inch longer making the gloves fit poorly. The palms are of a subpar leather, also they went with a lesser quality plastic Velcro closure which will NOT last. So all in all the new 2.0 version is a completely disappointing downgrade :( So if youre happy with the standard ones you have been wearing for years stick with them! Here in 2020 I just returned the Oakley Factory Pilot Gloves 2.0 version and re-purchased my tried-and-true Oakley Factory Pilot Gloves/SI Assault Gloves, but I am NOT happy with the downgrade of the overall design and lighter weight and use of lesser quality materials :( they are not worth the $70 MSRP anymore. The Oakley Factory Pilot Gloves have now become $50-$60 gloves at best. Oakley, what happened to the higher-end SI Tactical FR Glove and SI FR Fast Rope Glove? Please bring them back, and make them more accessible to purchase. Oakley/Luxottica Designers, when something is perfect and iconic please dont mess with the successful design!

Good quality, just wrong size.

Se adaptan bien. Buen tacto y sensibilidad. Muy cómodos. Aptos para altas temperaturas. Destiñe un poco al principio con el sudor.

Fit like a glove! Lol size fit me good!
