Giro Monacos are very good gloves. Real leather (Pittard) palms are more durable than Clarino " synthetic leather". Colored models get back-of-hand sun-bleached color wash out, but the gloves otherwise hold up fine. Wait until October-December for major discount prices.

I also like Specialized BG Pro gloves. I think Monacos are better, but you decide.

I tried a pair of PI "clarino leather palm" gloves, not doing that again, they just didn't hold up with long, rigorous riding.
