Anybody have any info on the sizing? Particularly the Cyclone version. There are no sizing charts for Mavic gloves. I take a medium in Pearl Izumi. Thanks.

    IME Mavic gloves tend to come up quite large.

    I have some Mavic mitts and I don't rate the quality when compared with Prendas or Spesh BG.

    I found that the large was a snug fit. And the quality of the stitching etc.. quite poor
    Bianchi. There are no alternatives only compromises!

    My mate works for the company that owns Mavic and get their stuff free/cheap and is alway whinging about how his hands are cold or the gloves are falling apart! If you want quality gloves, try Gore Bikewear.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    I have a pair of Mavic Hydro (I think) anyway they are some Mavic water-resistant glove and my hands are warmer not wearing them. I'm a medium in gloves and they are similar to others I have (Rapha/Assos/Izumi)

    Found Mavic gloves to be a small fit. Had to go up from usual L to XL. Wish I hadn't - a pair of paper bags would have kept my hands warmer. Definitely won't be buying again!

    May the road rise up to meet you.

    Does he whinge about any of their other clothing? Is it all as bad as the gloves?

    No. Just like the look of these particular gloves. The Pearl Izumi gloves look like they come from Lidl.
