[ferpnt]

If you would spend U$100 on a pair of gloves, wich one would you buy?

Remember that Brazil is never COLD!

Please help me choose one for me
Thanks

Held.

I dont think anyone can argue the quality and comfort of held.
I bought the "cheaper" model Thrux and I dont think I can ever use another pair ever again...

I have the Icon Pursuit gloves and could not be happier with them. They are a perfect fit, comfortable, durable, and breathe very well during the summer!

I can't argue with the quality, but I can definitely argue with the comfort. I had my heart set on a pair of Held gloves after hearing all the glowing reviews, but they were some of the most uncomfortable gloves I've ever put on. I don't have sensitive hands or anything...I just HATED the way they felt.

On the other hand, I can HIGHLY recommend Cortech Adrenaline gloves. Cowhide on the back, kangaroo on the palm, great protection, a nice long gauntlet with two straps to adjust it. I've been meaning to pick up another pair because I like them so much.

But I would recommend trying on as many pairs as you can. Gloves are an individual thing and what works for one person may not work for another (see above).

The Air Mesh Kevlar Gloves would be perfect for Brazil. Cost a little more than $100, but well worth it. I'm planning to go back to Brazil (Rio) within the next year, I'll let you know and I can bring it down with me.

Gloves > Street or Racing Gauntlet :: New Enough

These people sell multiple brands and models for well under $100 USD.

SMX-2 A C Glove - Alpinestars Official Store Only thing bad about them is that they leave imprints on your hand after wearing them for a while. Marks go away pretty quick and dont really bother me. They are very comfy and breathable though.

I prefer cheap gloves.... You can buy these typr of gloves in $ 60 to $70 unbranded with same protection.... I already used unbranded cheap one........

I love my Held gloves! I wear Held Steves for three seasons, and Held Freezers when its cold. Steves have very little stretch so they come in half sizes, the kangaroo palms are super strong, so the can make the leather thinner giving way more feeling, and the stitching is kevlar thread. Get them a little snug, get them wet and they fit like a glove LOL. I use to go through a pair of gloves a season, and this is #4 with my first pair of Helds.
