I have large naturally well padded hands, and after trying a number of different gloves decided many years ago on the Specialized Crossroads gloves, which unlike other gloves had little padding. I found that padded and gel gloves caused marked pain because they increased the pressure on already well padded hand parts, while I have ridden many hours with the Specialized Crossroads gloves with absolutely no pain.

Sadly, Specialized discontinued these gloves about a year ago. Fortunately, I had bought about a dozen pair on sale, but now have only two pair unused, and can no longer find the Specialized Crossroads gloves. I have been unable to locate a similar unpadded glove.

Anyone here have any sources for either the Specialized Crossroads gloves or something similar?

Thanks.

Thanks, I found that today also. It is new from the last time I Googled. Tried to call them and they are closed today, even though their ad says they are open!

Will try again.
