    What summer gloves do people like these days?

    I need to buy a new pair.

    Have bought MotoSprint in the past and they were ok.


    thanks

    just got a pair of mesh gloves, RJAYS $59.95.

    Leather palms, mesh on top with carbon knuckle lump thingos.

    Good fit, cool. I'd cut an angle on the end of the velcro loop to make it easier to slip it in the buckle hole. Apart from that...

    The Rjays mesh jacket at $149.95 is a bargain, includes zipout waterproof inner lining.

    Tried it out yesterday in 35 plus... way cool.

    Rode today with mesh, felt like I was riding nude (whooaaa, horrible image just came to mind).

    What have been missing out on all these hot summers!?

    Must go wash bike seat now.

    I'm on my 2nd pair of AlpineStars SMX-4 gloves. Motocross style glove made of
    leather with stretch material between the fingers and a bit of padding on the
    fingers. http://www.alpinestars.com/_lp/pdf/gloves/smx4-glove.pdf

    I'll put in another vote for the SMX-4. One warning - Alpine Star seem
    to have a bit of a quality control problem - I had to try on about a
    dozen pairs before I found some that were both the same size (ie. left &
    right gloves both fitted)

    Gday Grant,
    I just picked up some Dririder Dri-Mesh ones.
    Damn fine gloves and do what they are supposed to do.
    I have reviewed them and the Dri-Mesh jacket here.....

    Maybe your hands are different sizes; not unusual for feet.
