I have tried just about every major brand lightweight (trail?) glove out there, and the Giro DND is my absolute favorite. Great fit, no shrinking, and durable. Riding in the hot and humid Southeastern US, I sweat like a fat prom date, so my gear can get washed several times a week.
Weekly scrubbings (machine, hang dry), crashes, and moving the occasional branch or rock, the DND gloves have not only survived but also held up far longer than any of the others. My current 18 month old set still fits well and is the easiest to get on/off sweaty hands. The only "damage" is some of the "grip strips" across the fingers have come off, but nothing that would affect performance.
The fit around the fingers is snug, but not uncomfortable, and the palm has very minimal padding as well.
The brow wipe across the thumb, and touch screen compatible fingers are also welcome bonuses.
If you are looking for a glove that doesn't feel like you are wearing a glove, the DND might work for you.
