I was surprised, since they are supposed to make quality gear. But, they were cheap and I bought them because I had neglected to pack a spare pair of gloves on a trip.

I restitched them and I think they'll be fine.

I had worn mine all last summer. Rain, sun...etc. with no problem at all. Their good to go again this year (after it warms up some of course).

Your experience is what I hear most of the time about them. Hence my surprise when they fell apart on me.

I just added my fourth pair of gloves: winter big gauntlets (expensive and worth it). But, the pair that I wear the most is a simple pair of fingerless, mesh, weight lifting gloves. They are inexpensive and have great palm padding.
