This doesn't really seem to be a problem for everyone else so I guess it's just an adjusting phase...but man it's a pain. they take long to put on and off, I can't do anything when they're on, I've tried to put my helmet on after putting the gloves on and that failed. So then I had to take the time to take a glove off then put the damn thing back on again.

I'm just venting and hoping it gets better soon, they really are a pain....
You will think differently when the palms of your hands are torn off.
