    I have never used these but many high level riders are raving about the fit, quality,comfort and feel of these.

    I used Acerbis and now AXO, both fit and work well for me, this is a very subjective issue. Everyone has different and personal fit issues.

    I have like 3 pairs of different ones. I usually keep a spare or two in my back pack too along with grip heaters working good. Ride the Nothwet and youll understand why. Even if its not raining the tree branches are often wet so either way you get cold wet miserable hands all day.

    I recently got a good deal on some Klim gloves from Atomic-Moto and I really like them. First real dirtbike gloves I've had in years. I've been wearing basic gloves from Duluth Trading for years. They fit just like regular moto gloves with velcro at the wrist, they fit really well, are comfortable and seem to keep my hands from getting scratched up. They last forever. Seriously, I ride a lot and they last for years. Duluth makes good stuff. I've got a pair of their Cold Condition gloves and they work pretty well for wet or cool weather riding. If it's really cold, like Nevada in the winter, I wear my Alpinestars WR-2 gloves...I think they used to be called Dry Stars, or they're the next step up...and they are fantastic for keeping my fingers from freezing. Kinda bulky for technical trail work but it's easier riding in the gloves than it is with frozen hands. Love `em!

    home depot ironclad/firm-grip gloves. 10$ for a 3-pack in some cases. plus they make rubber dipped cotton stuff for muddy slop rides. they come in colors too! i know i know but, they work and last longer than most moto gloves.

    the new moose gloves are definatly more comfortable compared to last years style. managed to ride about 1 1/2 hours today on the track and they were pretty nice.

    Just bought a set of O'neal Butch gloves. They fit and feel better than my Fox Bombers. Hope they hold up better than the Bombers.

    I quit buying ALL Thor gear and for good reason. At one time a Thor chest protector would last me App 3 years or so. Then I bought one and the first ride it was falling apart. Huh I said. I then looked at my old one. Yep made in Italy the new one, made in China. Another sellout. My suggestion on gloves is to go one size bigger then the glove feeling kind of snug. This will help avoid the dreaded arm pump. I have no preference myself.

    Bargain bin Shift that happened to be my size and $15. I don't get more than 1 year out of gloves due to the winter muck. They are a true size 9 (M) and work well with my ProGrip pillow grips and Symtech heaters in the cooler months. Brand hasn't mattered for me so far with gloves as long as they fit.

    Don't buy that crap they make in China, it's a waste of money.
    Try to buy things that are made in Europe or in the US and i am sure that you will be satisfied.
