I mean the Capo gloves weren't so bad but I figured gel padding would make it even better but this just seems to put pressure in certain parts and no support anywhere else. When I was picking up the Descente's I looked at the CSC team edition gloves and was shocked that there was NO padding, now maybe I'm seeing why. Ugh I really like these gloves too, everyone's been telling me about the specialized gloves maybe I should try those. What sucks is the shop replaced my capo gloves with these descentes so i didn't pay anything for them but i could have just got another pair of capos, maybe they would have worked better.
