I know most here are all "cruisers" and could care less about race gloves, so this post is just to piss "Sully" off.

Jolanta bought me a pair of Alpinestar GP Pro gloves, and they are tits. PU thermoplastic sliders on palm, wrist, knuckles, and fingers. Kevlar lined, stretch panels... the rest is cow. Third and 4th fingers bridged to protect against finger roll, just in case you get off over 150.







If you're going drag racing you might consider them... but a must for Maxton.
 
Very flashy. I've heard differing opinions about the plastic (and other materials) splintering upon impact and causing additional damage. But, Alpinestars makes some fine equipment and I suspect those are indeed the tits.

I wear Helimot gloves. Before that I tried Helds but found my fingers were a bit too long and thin for a good fit. I've probably got just about as much money invested in gear as I do in add-ons for the bike.
 
those look pretty good...the briged finger is a neat idea..

I have some carbon fiber knuckle Joe rocket race gauntlets for my extreme outings...



But hey What happened to your swashbuckling gauntlets?
