But I would like to have good grip. And I hate it when there's a big seam on the inside... Razz
Thanks for the comment though! Smile

I find the grippiest ones are tight fitting ones.

And good grips make the biggest difference.

agree with Russ-69 Fox look absolutely great but my mate had a pair that wore down extremely quickly, I wear troy lees Unsecure image, only https images allowed: http://shop.1stmx.co.uk/ekmps/shops/andyhutch/images/2012-troy-lee-designs-tld-gp-motocross-gloves-9673-p.jpg for freeride you cant go wrong, theyre tough and pretty thick but still have good feeling, theyre also used by a number of pros Zink and Semenuk jump to mind plus theyre on sale at crc just now http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=66970 and yeah i get it troy lee are expensive but you're paying for the quality at the end of the day might be a point to mention that the palms on the crc photo arent actually checked in real life, not on the red ones at least

They suck pretty much and do not last long. Fox and Fly are my favorite, and they last a long time and give great protection and comfort.

My Fox Dirtpaw riding gloves
My Fly Racing riding gloves have them in green as well for my FR HT
These are mine, but I also have in green and black/white

They're made of a super thin water proof breathable leather that molds right to your hand and grips the bars soooo well.
Best gloves i've ever tried. A little pricey though.

Brandon Semenuk uses POC gloves.... So they can't suck... I'm not looking for protection, I just want breathable, well molding, grippy gloves...

All I can say bro is..."To each their own"...Just because Brandon Semenuk shreds with them, don't mean I will or others in fact....Just saying bro...lol You asked, we answered. I have tried those gloves and so did a couple other shredders I know, and they were not too keen with them either like me. Chances are he is getting paid to wear (to rep) POC gloves. You know a "sponsorship" or some kind of "endorsement".


Have you considered theses...
