Glove Recommendations?

Match the carbon! To hell with practicality!

I can recommend the knog love/hate mitts - pretty good stuff.

Really, everyone needs a pair of these:

No idea if they are any good or not, but they make me laugh every time I see them...

A friend of mine got given a pair of these out on the trails by the owner of the company whilst in Whistler. As he rode off the dude was shouting "two in the pink, one in the stink!" Can you get them in the UK?

Sorry Steff, didn't see your post. Think they're the same glove.

Not quite - mine are like this: http://www.mikevaughancycles.co.uk/products.php?plid=m5b2s61p1275&rs=gb

gore retro tech are the best i've ever had but wash them in mild soap, rinse well and air dry

these do me good since years, have gel padded hand palms. 4 gel pads. strong leather construction. made for mecanical work, so they ll last a while on the bike.

I wear these

Very comfortable and close fitting, with just enough padding to stop your hands going numb or being hurt in a fall, but not too much that you can't still feel the road through your handlebars.

£20 from here

Um, how does one measure one's hands? No idea what size would be right for me.

right around the palm and back of hand betwren fingers and thumb

there's no getting past murts.

Thanks, man.

I got these endura mitts 2-3 years ago

and they've been brilliant, only recently developing a small hole in the padding of the palm of one. I thought if they've been really good then these ones ,

being the next ones up in the range, would be even better. They're not, completely different and not nearly as nice. So I whole heartedly recommend the Endura Mighty Mitts (for £15), but equally recommend you steer clear of the FS260 Aerogel mitts (for £25), a tenner more expensive and a real disappointment :(

these are good and cheap

Prendas are often selling off cheap track mitts. Been using a pair all summer, really good quality.

Whats that awesome word for mitts that they use sometimes that sounds all medieval like?

gauntlet?

Nup... it starts with P.

pittard! Great word.
