Default RE: Summer Gloves

Every year pick up a new pair at the local hardware store in the spring. Wells Lamont STYLE: 1132 - Grain Cowhide, usually around $10.oo. They last all season, then when fall hits they are worn enough to use Aviation Flight gloves as inners and the Wells Lamont as outer shells. Cuts the cool breeze. Then when winter is here I run the H-D's water proof gortex winter lined gloves.

Never with out gloves when I ride.

Its like not using a seat belt! Just does not feel right for me when I don't wear gloves.

I wear the mechanix gloves I bought for 10 bucks. Lets air flow through and no loss in dexterity. I don't even have to take them off to pull credit cards or cash out of my wallet when stopping for gas.

H-D airflow full fingered gloves. Fabric on the backside, pigskin palms. Cost around $30. They work well for me.

I wear regular Mechanix gloves -thin, breathable,they mold to your hand fast , enough protection from those bugs when they hit your throttle hand at 95 mph! And your hands don't get sweaty .You can find them for about $20 at Walmart,Lowes ,Menards or any good hardware store. They have a website that offers all the various models .I have the cold weather ones ,they make a glove with small lights on the index finger base for when you need to use a tool in a tight area and can't hold a flashlight also. Many ,many different kinds they offer.
