Is this normal wear and tear?

I payed about $40 for these gloves back in August.




The only time I've worn them was during my Basic Rider Course. It was a 5 day course -- about 4 hours every day.


Maybe it's because I am a noob and was giving the left handle bar a death grip. However, there is hardly any wear on my right hand glove.

But since the 5th of August, they've just been sitting on my dresser collecting dust.

What do you think, is this normal damage? I am kind of embarrassed I payed $40 for this pair. Especially since I could have got away with using just about anything for the MSF. Eventually, I'd like to upgrade to something more full.

Normal wear caused by friction. Looks like it's from minor rotation of the left hand on the grip. Not noticed on the right handle since the glove moves with the grip.
