I've got a bit of a thing for gloves, . . probably because they're relatively cheap, and are easily hidden from the SO!

My current faves, even though I can't use them yet (arm in plater).

Show me yours . . .

My current favourites. I had some 661's for a while that broke inside 9 months; these have reached 2 years and still going pretty strong. The fingers are quite narrow for my podgy fingers, but the build quality is beyond compare!

I haven't got any pics to share, but you've got to love a good glove! I don't know how many pairs I've got.

[color=blue]Love these (more so than my Fox and Specialized gloves) but they are starting to get a bit frayed.

Kiss the glove....

What's the longevity like on the Foxes? I like the look of them - bit of protection on the backs of the hands, not too breezy in the wind, etc.

I've got Remedys too. Really nice fit and so far I've not had the 'self destructing' giro fragility issues some talk about.

Xens also feel just as nice.

i've got a pair of them there fox gloves with the carbon outer knuckles and don't like them. they fell apart a bit too quickly and when you wash them the leather on the two outer fingers stiffen up so hard to get comfortable in them until you've sweated in them a bit.

these sombrio forensic are the best i've had, lasted well over a year, stitching is all still good and the only holes are on the palms from falls and death grip!

Troy Lee and Dakine for me...

I have a pair of the Sombrio forensics that have only got one hole in the forefinger. Any Sombrio stuff that I've bought in the last couple of years has fallen to bits.

Buy them 3 pairs at a time, haven't found anything as long lasting and comfy
