I normally wear Fox due to having a large palm but relativly short fingers. Been using the sidewinder for several versions although the current one looks a bit overbuilt. I don't like the big rubber bit on the heel of the palm. So, now I'm looking at the digit. Anything else worth looking at for a full finger summer trail glove with a similar fit?

Ta.

Just one glove?

You are Michael Jackson and I claim my £5.

Fox make simpler ones as well, if not a Troy Lee XC is the way.

I've got three pairs of gloves, but i've found myself always reaching for the digits!!

If that's any help?

Personally I've been looking at Alpinestars and UFO gloves recently.

Although I really want the Fox ones with the carbon knuckles . . .

Dainese are the best I've used so far, though Dakine are pretty good too.

Another vote for Troy Lee XC. Comfiest gloves I ever did see.
