I Have a pair of the pearl attack gloves. I have to say they saved my hands. I was struck by a car while on my bicycle and when i was struck it was from behind and the impact sent me over the handle bars and my hands and forearms touched the cement first, had i not been wearing my gloves i would have had some serious soft tissue damage on my hands. The gloves gave in to the course cement and they are destroyed but they saved my hands except for friction rash from the pressure of the glove grinding on the cement.

I 've had Pearl Izumi Select gloves for about 18months and they were starting to show a lot of wear so I saw these and they looked the same but they bunch up between my pointer finger and thumb making my hands go numb very quickly when road riding. They are also a bit smaller then my PI Select's but they probably have stretched from being soaked with sweat from 2 summers of riding. They are very well made with durable materials. One advantage that these gloves have over the select's is that the palm of the glove extends an extra 1/2-3/4" which would protect you wrist better from road rash if you fell and put your hand down to catch yourself. I might give them a go when I am mountain biking, but I will probably just give them away and get another pair of Select gloves.
