I have a pair of Alpinestars GPX which look similar to the S-MX2 gloves that you posted. I love the fit and feel of the Alpinestars gloves, but found myself wanting longer cuffs as the GPX's are short cuff. I ended up with getting a pair of Teknic gloves at a great price and although they fit well and are broken in, I find myself missing the A* gloves.

If you can try some on I'd look at the Stella SP-2's; women specific cut, gauntlet cuff, and good protection.:thumbup:

i've heard a lot of people say they are very pleased with their A* clothing all around. i know they make good gear and i'm not afraid of spending a few extra bucks for a good quality product. especially since i know there's will last.:thumbup:

I have the A* "3/4" gloves, they look similar to the first ones, they're great once they're broken in.

Held gloves are probably better, but are fairly expnsive. Between the two mentioned brands, Alpinestar has a better reputation and has been around longer. I'd go with the Stella SP-2 gloves (if I was a woman).

My favorite gloves ever were Shift gloves and i would love to own a pair again.

The 4th gloved look less bulky of the shift options
