Hehehe, I clicked on the link for toughgloves.com and in my head I started hearing "YMCA". I guess I thought I wound up on the wrong kinda website. Looks like a tribute site for the Village People ;-)

But . . . . I am checking out their stuff. I need some good summer gloves as well.

(And my first impression had NOTHING to do with the San Francisco reference)

Just plain brown leather work gloves you can buy at any hardware store.

Mechanix work gloves. Only $18.00, durable, breathable, doesn't matter if they get wet and they're machine washable. Can't beat'em.

I went through too many pairs of crap gloves before I decided to try these. Had the same pair for almost 2 years and they still look good.

I've been using the full finger perforated HD gloves for about a year now and even in the heat of summer here in Ga, my hands don't sweat they actually stay cool because of the vent holes. Cost was $45.00, a little expensive, but worth it.

don't recall how much I paid ... but I wear fingerless HD leather gloves. I don't like the ones with velcro because it tears up the inside of my helmet when I toss them in and hang my helmet etc. when I stop for a break..

Ditto on the bike gloves. Excellent padding in the palm and breathable.
