Gloves
 

What brand gloves do you use, and why do you like them?
what gloves do you not like, and why?

I have 2 pair Pearl white lines, they're ok
0ne pair Louis Garneau full finger gloves nice fit comfortable.
0ne pair Louis Garneau Ergo Air glove which I hate, the seam
on the fingers is very uncomfortable.
The most comfortable glove I ever had were old
cotton mesh with full leather palms.

Specialized Pro - They're okay, fit is good but the padding seems to be minimal or placed funny for me. I do like them not having the velcro strap (thus no exposed area for the suntan spot on back of hand)

Kucharik - picked 'em up at HHH and like them better than the above. Leather palm has more padding than the Specialized

Best ones I ever had were Spenco Gel Gloves, but wore them out a long time ago and I don't think they're available anymore.

I have a pair of Louis Garneau Rex's that are decent. One of the seams was bothering me so I restitched it and it works fine.

Specialized Enduros-- for mtn biking and cold rides
Specialized- Road Pro/Comp..they are old.. I love them
Specialized- Road Pro '03

I have 3 pairs of Pearl Izumi's. 1 pair are the full finger cold weather gloves they fit big but work fine for cold weather. The other 2 are the regular cycling gloves. No problems with them they fit great and I love them. Got my last pair at the outlet for $8.99!

The only gloves I wear are P.I. White Line (no full finger). They fit the best and are the most comfortable IMO.

One pair of Trek Moby-Gels for summer and one pair of Specialized winter gloves.

The Moby-Gels fit my hand perfectly and have the padding in just the right spot. They are so comfortable, its like I don't have them one.

The Specialized winter gloves are warm, even to below freezing. I could not ride in the cold without them.

Mostely P.I.'s for me also..

Benjamin

Lake glove for freezing cold
Swobo wool full finger for chilly days
None for warm days

Performance fleece glove for the winter.

Cannondale leather fingerless for the summer.

Whatever I wear, I don't like too much padding but always like to have a glove of some sort on.

Shockingly,i got a pair of supergo eagogel i think,best gloves i've had.

Specialized "something", blue terry with gray leather palms. I have two pairs. Also Louis Garneau Ergo-air.
In cold months, Cannondale WindShredders and PI ComforTemp DCC (ski gloves I think).

Pearl Gel Lites for warmer weather, Pearl fleece pitards in colder weather. (Have a pair of Castellis as half-finger backups, Cannondales for full-finger backup - my 1st pair of gloves, from my hybrid bike days.)

Several pair of Specialized Pro's for summer
Raceface full fingers for technical/trials
Castelli windstoppers, OLD specialized Storm(?)neoprene gloves, OLD Pearl fleece/thinsulate/pitard (name?) and some no name thinsulate liners.

when i was riding a flat bar....i used louis garneau gel gloves. having injured the ligaments in both thumbs i would get quite a bit of pain when riding...those gloves helped a lot.

however...they fall apart quickly


now an oversized carbon bar and cinelli gel bar tape helps a ton

for summer i ride with nalini "pro" gloves. leather palm and spandex on the dorsum. very comfortable and has good "feel"

for the winter i use louis garneau windproof shells and they come with a fleece liner that is reinforced over the palm. they work fine but are a bit bulky and get pretty hot

i saw some campagnolo full fingered gloves one time that felt great.

they would make a good intermediate glove. they were more expensive than other brands...but not as much as the typical campy product..
