GiroMonaco II Gel Glove(Return to Product Page)

Bought these Monaco II gloves in vermillion to replace a pair of older version Monaco gloves in red & white that I wore out after a couple of thousand miles. The vermillion is a bit glaring, sort of safety-cone red rather than simple red but the color has faded a bit (unevenly...) over months of use & many hand washings. These gloves in size large are definitely smaller than the older version in large and I wish I had bought next size up. These may have shrunk a tiny amount, but it is hard to tell...just much tighter fit than old version.

Gloves are very comfortable. They provide cushion at the righ places and remain cool throghout the ride.

The gel padding is just thick enough to make the ride very comfortable. The soft leather palm makes the glove very comfortable.

I don't know why all the size charts are always off. You can bet if you follow the recommended size it will be off by one to two sizes.

Used for E-Skate, glove size runs a bit small but overall impressed and will buy again.

I like the padding on this glove. The sizing seems to run very snug. It can be a chore to get them off when sweaty. I would consider ordering a size larger than you normally would.

You will forget you're wearing these very quickly. Super comfortable. Very high quality and lightweight.

3rd or 4th time purchasing Giro Monaco gloves, after 1st using Giro Bravo gloves, which I liked, and which lasted long time. Did not like 1st pair of Monaco gloves. Though leather and well gel padded, leather did not last long after repeated handwashes. Tried to minimize washes with 2nd pair, but eventually leather hardens & begins to crack. This pair appears a bit more flexible in design. Limiting washes to remove sweat and avoiding getting leather wet, only washing top mesh surface. This model II may last longer. Time will tell.

Great gloves. The full leather palms give you great grip and the padding is on the thicker side but not uncomfortable. After I used them on a couple of rides I had to buy another pair.

road cycling

nice fit

Very good product.

I don't have huge hands and small fits me well. They do loosen up over time but still good fit for me.

I always order xl because they fit better and they are easier to put them on. They are very comfortable to enjoy long rides.

Product came as expected. Size and fit was accurate.

Great for the hands

Good fit, and high quality gloves.

Great style and right amount of padding

Extremely comfortable gloves, comes in vibrant colors

They are easy to remove and they run a bite small. Excellent cushioning.
