These feel more like boxer's wraps than fingerless gloves to be honest, what with their long and thick finger ends that rest on the second knuckle and wrist that goes past the wrist to the forearm. They were much tighter to get my hand/knuckles through than expected too, so definitely not easily put on or taken off without accidentally tearing the material. I have no idea how this is a large since my hands are rather small and these barely fit me. I got the size that fits my measurements, but clearly they run a size smaller on the width and a size longer on the length, which really doesn't feel good. A size smaller though, I doubt I'd've been able to get my hand in the glove at all. A size larger, and it might've been halfway to my elbow with the tips halfway between the second and third knuckles.
Worst part? The finger ends. It feels like the ends are cutting off circulation to my fingers after wearing for more than 5 minutes, especially if I bend my fingers at all. The ends set right on my second knuckle, which just feels wrong and insecure despite how tight the gloves are. (Most fingerless gloves set below the second knuckle to avoid cutting off circulation)
Best part? The palm. The palm is perfectly fitted, lightweight, and breathable which is exactly what I was looking for. It feels good, isn't thick or sweaty, and has a nice grip that doesn't overheat too much in the summer.
