I have a pair of Joe Rocket gloves in XL. They are a little loose so I ordered a pair also in Large. Hopefully they won't be too tight. Thanks for the link!

heh i just found out yesterday when i got the mail. well... at least you didn't pay retail price for them

hell, they're so cheap i ordered a pair even though i already have 2 sets of gloves. i'm almost tempted to just buy 10 of them and make a profit on ebay.
everyone else better act fast because they only have a limited quantity!

Good idea on ebay! $25 for a set of that quality is hard to beat.

I took a ride with them this afternoon and like 'em. The fit is good, the leather is soft, and the knuckle guards suit well. Overall good quality gloves, so far.

Not sure I'm a big fan of the chrome yet, but everyone that has seen the gloves had good comments, and the chrome may grow on me. It depends on your bike and helmet, too. Mine's black and silver with chrome bullets around the windscreen and a black, white and silver helmet, so it matches pretty well.

Ricey? Maybe. But it's different and I like it

do these have an inner liner? my gloves are just a layer of leather and they stick to my hands if its hot and sweaty. everyone i ride with can pull their gloves off in 2 seconds, and it takes me forever to get mine off cause i have to tug each finger...

what kind of gloves do you have? my buddy has a pair of cortech accelerator gloves and they're a bitch to take off because it just sticks to your fingers. in a way, i kinda like it because my fingers don't feel all fat and stubby. they don't need to be broken in either.
now with these first gear gloves, i went for a ride with them last night. i can't say too much positive things on these just yet because they're not broken in. when i first got my teknic gloves, i absolutely hated them because they felt so thick, but now that they're broken in, i love 'em. my only gripe about these first gear gloves is that it seems to be made for people with very fat fingers...
