I need some new ones, mainly for DH. Any recommendations?

I tend to use the same ones throughout the year so nothing too thin on the top.

I just received my Poc gloves off Cycle Surgery.

Impressed with them but I only paid £22, reduced from an eye watering £54! 😯

Sizes are on the small size. I measured up for a large but they were too tight so changed for XL that would have appeared too large by the measurements

I'm using their trail ones, not sure of the exact name. But gloves, helmets and shoes tend to be all the same for me. Try before you buy to make sure the fit is right and they feel right for me.

Any experiences of Royal gloves? How do they size up?

I bought some enduro ones a few weeks back they're very comfortable.

My On-Ones are surprisingly good for the money - 8 months of wear in and they have lost some 'velcro-ness' but that is it. Mine are the trail glove, I am going to try some softshelly ones for the winter.

Dakine are the best I've ever had. Sadly I've only got the one pair.

My last couple of pairs have been Dakine, but my last pair lasted one day in Whistler Bike Park (although I'm not holding that against them as I crashed). I was thinking about trying something else.
