Nike Swoosh Bike Gloves
I gave them my best shot but they really suck. The flock material they use on the inside is too slippery and your hands move around inside the gloves. I still say Specialized makes the best gloves. Just bought a pair of Team versions and they are awesome. And to think Team Discovery rides with those Nike gloves.

The Swoosh gloves are the best i have ever used and am looking for a second set in M if anyone knows of any. Mine are from 2006, maybe they changed them recently?

I have drawer full of gloves and my Nike gloves only get used when all 10 other pair are dirty. I do love the Specialized gloves. I just ordered two pair from their site for $12 each. Got a Decibal helmet for $95.

I have a pair of Nikes. I really like em, I haven't really experienced the "slippery" feeling. I find they just fit snuggly on my hands and then I forget they're there. I'm almost on my second pair I'm getting a hole wearing on the back of each thumb.

I wear nothing with the swosh on them. Including shoes.
