What Summer gloves do you wear and like?
I need to replace my 661 Raji, which although well ventilated were unacceptably flimsy IMO.
If peeps could just shout out what they wear and like I will use it as a starting point for my next purchase...
Thanks all!
P.S I like long-finger, even in Summer.
Thor Phase are my favourites so far. Fit like a glove.
Race Face Deus - though I think the previous version were better than the 2010 ones.
Giro Rivet, Giro Xen.
Troylee air, Troylee xc.

Troy Lee XC or Giro Xen are very good. Xen are a little thinner
Spesh Pro mitts - super comfy and seem to help prevent numb hands.
Decathlon rockriders (or whatever it is they're called), cheaper too.
Spesh Ridge (I think they're called) - very meshy & keep your hands cool.

although mine are a slightly different design, so not sure how current that page is...
Spesh for me too, got 3pairs. Used to like the Trek ones but not current issue. Do like a Fox one but no idea the name(bright green!! ) I have big, broad hands so find it difficult getting gloves normally and prefer a bit of padding not like a lot of the newer ultra thin/lightweight jobbies.
Hunt around and choose whatever fits imo
i like troy lee airs for the hotter days, XCs are a bit warmer.
Thanks people, lots of help.
I use Thor Phase too - superb glove. Most comfy I've worn.
+1 For Troy Lee's; either XC or Air.
Dakine fall apart, my older Thor's seem indestructible and much better. I used to like Answer vu have not seen any for a while.
