Default Gloves, Not winter ones.

Slow day so I figured I would shop for some gloves on line. Not knowing where to go I grabbed my first pair at HD. Not bad actually but the big HD badges on top of both just look stupid. Love my bike but dont need HD badge on every damn thing I own either.
Any favorites for general all around riding gloves.

Thanks

I found my gloves at a local leather shop. Ok for cool weather riding and easy to put the UnderArmor glove liners under, for cold weather riding.

I went with HD leather/Gortex & the HD logo was sewn over top so it could be removed w/little effort. Don't look bad & keep fingers warm on cool fall/spring riding days.

I use this company, they are a family owned outfit, very/extremely customer oriented.

+1, specifically, the Lee Parks DeerTours. I wore them when it was 110 degrees, and I wear them until the temps hit the mid 50's or so.

I use the Lee Parks DeerTour gloves in Georgia as well. 3 season gloves; they have a lot of 'feel' in them and seem very sturdy. I'm using thinsulate lined deerskin gauntlets right now in the cold.

Ive got a set of prefferated black leather gloves from Icon that I picked up at the local Cycle Gear outlet. A bit pricey($55) but they fit well and breath great. They're good for about 55* or so and Ive worn them when it's hot with no issues. Im wanting a set of cold weather gloves but not wanting to drop the coin they want for some of these things(~$100+).

I just pick up some black deer skin work gloves at my local Red Wing store . They have thinsulate ones and ones woth no insulation. I got the ones with none since I already have some cold weather gloves.
