RE: Summer Gloves

I recently purchased Icon Pursuit gloves and think they're excellent; 55 bucks list.

RE: Summer Gloves

I like the HD fingerless with palm padding. Good coverage for most of the areas that would get road rash if you wend down, but still able to handle coins and small things in your pockets without taking the gloves off.

RE: Summer Gloves

A pair of deerskin driving gloves from Northern Tools or similar will set you back about 12 bucks and do the job. Yep, they are yellow. Nothing a box of Rit dye won't cure.

I picked up 2 pairs of the Firstgear Mohave 2.0 gloves, one with fingers and one without. Nice perforated all leather glove with gel pads.I think I paid around $60 for both pairs.

RE: Summer Gloves

I bought the harley perferated gloves feel they are okay but my hands and wrists are pretty big and the velcro is always bothering me. Does anyone know of a summer glove without the velcro?

RE: Summer Gloves

Last year my old cheapo swap meet fingerless gloves were falling apart, the seams finally unraveling after several years. I bought a new pair of fingerless gloves from Fox Creek that I have been happy with. I also have a pair of Fox Creek unlined deerskin gauntlets for those cooler Summer nights and general Spring/Fall riding that are easily the nicest gloves I've ever had.
