What gloves do you wear, or do you?

Post by rickko »

I find these bicycle gloves comfortable in the summer time; full finger leather in the cooler months. How about you?

I wear a pair of Frank Thomas full finger leather gloves. These gloves have a mesh back so they are still plenty cool in the hot Texas weather. They also have the extra padding over the knuckles for that added bit of portection. Bought them at Cycle World in case anyone is wondering.

For summer I wear a light weight pair of Petzl climbing gloves that is available from REI. Soft goatskin leather with a mesh fabric back and velcro straps. Very comfortable and the price is reasonable. In the winter I wear conventional leather motorcycle gloves.

I wear these awesome breathable mesh mechanic's gloves I got from Lowes. They even "almost" match my silver/black FirstGear MeshTex armored jacket too.

I wear gardening gloves. The instructor at my MSF course gave me the idea. They work fine. They don't match my jacket, which does not match my helmet, which doesn't match my scooter...but who cares?

My gardening gloves don't have armor, Thinsulate or rubber squeegees on them. So they work great in the garden.

I LOVE MY GLOVES!!!

They are PowerTrip something-or-others and they are awesome. Especially good for warm/hot weather riding because they are very breatheable, but still very protective... What sold me was the COMFORT. I tried on like a million pairs of gloves before I found these and they're perfect. here's a pic:

A pair of leather gloves I bought at an Army surplus store years ago. Not perforated or anything, but I have yet to feel uncomfortable wearing them while riding, even in 100+ degree temps. And they saved my hands yesterday...

I wear a pair of red Alpine Stars and my wife wears a pair of Joe Rockets. Both have plenty of palm protection which I think is the most critical. If you go down and have any control of your fall, you're going to put you hands out first and your palms are gonna take the brunt of the scraping. Especially that pad of muscle right behind your thumb.

Very well ventilated, and offer a pretty high degree of protection.

I wear gloves a lot like Krusty's a few posts up. Year round. Gloves and a helmet are my two non-negotiables.

And this post is why. It's from the Who's Crashed thread, and has some pretty ugly pics.

I have several pairs of gloves. This is one area where I think non-MC gear just won't suffice. Cloth gloves? Fingerless? Bike gloves? Not for me! I have seen what a slide can do to digits. You don't have to be doing 70mph to have them ground down to the bone. I have nightmares about injuring my hands. I know of other professional designers/artists/etc. who do as as well.

My gloves (I'll add pics later):

Olympia perforated leather: I have never had my hands get hot in these. They're fairly light, offering minimum but sufficient protection.

Brazimoto Union Jacks: My "every day" gloves for a few months, now set aside for occasional use. They were wearing out too fast.

Belstaff "Online" Leather: My new faves for cool/mild weather. I've worn them on cooler mornings and evenings because I'm eager to get them worn in. Extra padding on knuckles and fingers. Soft Thinsulate lining. Gauntlets are perfect length. Reflective darts on fingers. Probably versatile enough to wear 8 months of the year. Bonus: For full-featured gloves, they look damn good, IMHO.

I have a couple other pairs, but am retiring them because I prefer those listed above. One is a longer winter gauntlet sold on eBay and online (places like Jafrum which sell generic leather). The leather on these is just hard and plastic-y. The fit is horrible. I wore them once, then shelved them.

Could you say some more about these Krusty? I often go sans gloves in the summer b/c my mesh gloves are too darn bulky and uncomfortable. How is the fit of these?

Here's another example of someone asking for opinions, and then I'm going to get reamed for sharing mine. : )

First off: Gloves are TOTALLY underrated, I'd rate them up there with a helmet and good footwear as absolutely necessary. I wear them even if I'm riding in shorts.

I agree with Eric, Motorcycle gloves are made for motorcycles. Gardening gloves are made for gardening. Bicycle gloves are made for bicycles.

Any gloves, especially if they're leather, will provide some degree of abrasion resistance and are better than nothing, but the motorcycle ones will protect you best, they're designed to be comfortable and fit snugly enough to not affect your control. They have kevlar stitching so they don't fall apart when they hit the pavement. They have knuckle protection to prevent shattered bones in your hands, they have thick padding at the base of the palms to prevent hamburger. Some even have a squeegee strip to wipe off your visor in the rain.

Again, wear whatever you like, just be aware there IS a difference. I'm not preaching, I'm educating. If you're aware of this and you've made your choice, ignore me.

To answer the question, I have a pair of Joe Rockets with really tacky fake carbonfiber knuckles, and some generic-looking AGV gauntlets for when it's cold.

And this is exactly my problem. I have thin fingers, and I have yet to find a good pair of gloves that don't affect my grip. Honestly, I think the most important thing is that I have a good grip on the handlebars, next is abrasion protection. In my (humble) opinion, we ladies need more manufacturers to cater to our needs.

I totally agree with redcass. I have small hands and fingers as well and it is a nightmare sometimes to find gloves that actually fit snugly and comfortably so that I can even feel the handgrips. :(

I have 5 pairs of ladies gloves that fit. I wear small/extra small. Gloves are like helmets. You have to try everything on. Even different pairs of the same style in the same size, like jeans.
Wearing gloves all the time seems like it would be restrictive, like a full face helmet.The idea is more restricting than the practice. I think of how much a paper cut or a scrape impacts my day to day activities, I wear my gloves all the time.

Well, they are men's gloves, but the smalls fit my hands perfectly and they are not bulky at all. The knuckle pads are kinda big I guess, but you don't notice them. They're made mostly of goat leather which is relatively thin and soft but very strong, also with 15% Nylon, 15% Synthetic leather, and 10% Airprene. There isn't any plastic-y armor, your wrist and fingers can move freely...

As you can see in the pic, there is quite a bit of nylon mesh on the top and there are vent holes on the sides and tips of the fingers for added airflow. Yeah, your hands will still be a bit warmer than not wearing gloves at all, but if you think about it, your hands are kind of an important part of your body... Also most skids and falls involve some hand-to-pavement contact. I've fallen once in them already and they got scuffed a bit on the palms and thats about it... I hope this is helpful, I don't remember the name of them and they don't sell them at the shop I got them from anymore. They were like 35 bucks.

Yeah, an ill-fitting glove is bad news for comfort and safety and I can see the fit of most gloves being a problem, even though there are probably smaller/thinner gloves out there, motorcycle shops are not famous for catering to women, and it's tough to mailorder stuff like that without trying it on.

Are there any threads here about this? ask Ellen, search the ScooterDiva forums, ask Crystal and check Scooterfix/ScootPink, I bet someone can recommend some good women's gloves to check out.

I don't wear any, unless it is cold and then it is one of several random sets of motorcycle gloves that I have accumulated.

That post is why I don't wear them. The pics look pretty ugly, I guess, but considering they are from a 45 mph slide and I'm riding at about 30 mph, I'm willing to risk it. The injury, while surely painful, does not appear life threatening and I have been through worse.

I have contemplated some cycling gloves, which would help with the chewed up heels of the hands and do cushion the blow, slightly, when you hit the ground, as they have thick padding in that same area.

I really need to visit this motorcycle superstore called Brockton Cycles in Massachusetts soon. I have been told they have ginormous inventory and specialize in the largest stock of helmets, jackets and gloves and their big deals are the clearance and sale items.

Good discussion that raised my awareness of the need for good gloves. I have a cheap pair of Fieldsheer that are OK for the warm weather riding, but the cold mornings are not too far away and they just won't cut it, so this came in real useful for hearing about what works for others.

I found this page on MotorcycleCruiser.com that does a comparison of 13 cold-weather gloves. YMMV with what they say, but I like the look of the TourMaster $50 gloves towards the end of the page.

I have seen various places kevlar liners for gloves and read somewhere
one safety guy uses them under his regular gloves. Also silk liners.

They (the kevlar ones) are cheap enough; I googled a couple of places that offer them aswork protective gloves for people who have to work with sharp objects like broken glass.

Does anyone have any personal experience with those? Ever tried them?

I don't have any for now.. But now that the nights are begining to get a little "crisp" I am noticing that I keep wanting to pull my sleaves over my hands...

Bad Idea.

I will be investing in some simple leather ones sometime soon.

These are the first pair I tried on and have never used anything else. I have smaller hands and these are as comfortable as they can be. I never ride without them. In fact, I was startled the other day when I was showing my scoot to someone in my garage and I put my hands on the grips. It was then that I realized that I had never even touched my handlebars without my gloves on! It was a bit freaky.

Apparently, they fit lady-sized hands.

I've got the same pair, Corazzo Urbanos. Fit nice, are comfortable, not too bulky. Do the trick nicely.

I used to ride without until these came, now when I ride without lke when I pull her into the garage, the grips feel alien to me.

Speaking of glove mods, would it be safe to unstitch and slightly shorten the pointer fingers on my gloves? They are too long and have caught on stuff/made it clumsy to try to use my pointer for stuff.

The other fingers are fine, just the pointers are too long.

Just ordered these:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 36329&rd=1

They match my Motoboss mesh jacket, too. :)

I'm currently wearing Motoboss thin, perforated leather gloves with extra leather in the places you need it, but the thumb was a bit short...so for these the price was right (free shipping, too) and when it starts to get cooler, I'll probably get some better leather gloves with armor.

BTW, also picked up these, for rain or night riding...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... :IT&ih=019

I need to hold my Motoboss jacket in front of headlights and see if it is reflective...I've only been out once at night, and didn't think to look.

I figure that the day-glo vests will definitely help if I get caught in the rain, right over the jacket. (Is that overkill?)

I dunno, call me paranoid, but I have too much to live for...

Take a digital photo of the jacket with flash or in a dim room. That will show you the reflective parts.
