Decent gloves. Years of searching have ended.
It's summat thats concerned me a lot over the years after i did quite a bit of damage to my hands and right wrist when i was about 19 coming off my bike on a forest track.
I've tried all sorts of gloves from summer leather gloves to deep winter gloves, to MX gloves and Enduro gloves. I seriously cant say i have trusted a single pair though. None of them have seemed ample enough or had the right look. Yep, i like a pair of gloves to look the part aswell.
Anyway, after years of searching i think i've finally found my ideal in the glove's dept.
Colours are good, good protection to the palm area and ends of fingers. Even good for the palm readers out there.

Of course, PG Tips all the way. No other worth mentioning
Saying that, one of the best cuppa's i ever had was near the Grand Canyon. We called in this restaurant (we were having a mini road trip Left Vegas, went round the desert, Grand Canyon, California etc then back to Vegas). All 4 of us were thirsty (3 Brits, one American) and we noticed on the menu that they had Devonshire morning tea. 3 of us were sick of coffee to be honest so we decided to risk it and order the tea. They bought it out all proper in a tea pot with cups so on so forth and damn was it good to have a good cuppa for a change.
It was funny really because we ended up with loads of customers and staff standing around watching us brew up. They found interesting/funny because apparently it looked like some kind of ritual
We had load's of top up's and they didn't charge us cause of the entertainment value

No, I did not miss the entire point of this thread. I thought it was hilarious!!I was just giving my serious opinion as to what are some of the best gloves and cheapest I have ever used.juliend wrote:I somehow feel that you have missed the entire point of this thread.....Little Jeff wrote:I always buy the work gloves at Home Depot for about $10. They have a leather face with a fabric on the top side and last a really long tme, also have some padding in them as well.

A question for the PO (GBR):
How long did it take you to stitch those up?
