Anyone's experience with synthetic leather? [View all]

So I'm shopping around for a nice pair of gloves, but I try to avoid animal products when I can. It seems the most supple ones are made from calf and kid skins, which is especially unappealing to me.

Anyway I started searching online for synthetic leather gloves, and have found some nice looking ones at places like thevegetariansite.com. But I have no experience with synthetic leather and was wondering if anyone could tell me about it compared to animal leather, durability and feel etc. TIA!
