BikePerfect has reviewed the 100% Sling Gloves. Here is what they had to say:

Until I tested out the 100% Sling glove I wasn't really a glove guy, much preferring the direct feedback and control of having direct skin to handlebar grip feel. That said, I'm not much of a fan of direct skin to trail feel, which is a potentially common scenario while out mountain biking.

100% Sling are super lightweight summer gloves with an incredibly thin single-layer palm, topped with a four-way stretch woven material. Designed for summer ridding there are perforations across the entire palm, as well as laser cut holes across the back to keep your mitts as cool as possible. There is no fiddly Velcro closure, they just pull on and stay in place thanks to their great fit.

Sure, they probably won't offer a huge amount of protection from the ground, or the cold, but even having an extra layer between you and terra firma could significantly reduce the quantity of little stones you need to pick out your hands post-crash. Most importantly, the minimalist design still offers an amazing bar feel and better grip, enhancing control without missing even the faintest of trail brail.
