says the guy that was wearing a hollister shirt...

Remember... I was born and raised a farm boy, and a memeber of an AG fraternity... so yea, whatever random *free* tshirt and lee jeans.
And I had a lot of jackets from John Deere and assorted seed companies.

so were you just check'n TRock out?



I've got A* GP Pro's... LOVE them... fit my hands perfect... and gloves are usually hard for me to find a good fit as I've got long skinny fingers... so usually I have to get gloves in XXL just to fit my fingers but then the palms are way huge on me.

haven't crash tested them... but I have no worries.

Whats it like being the definition of douche? Hollister its a huge brand of clothing, now go to Hollister california and you will never wear that crap again.

Well obviously,I'm gonna put in a word for Icon TiMax gloves and they have brought back the original style. For street use they are great gloves.

Okay,I've had the;

Kushitani two-piece gloves-hated them for street as they SUCKED to take off and put on,great for the track,sucks if you're out cruising and stopping with the boys. "Hold up I gotta get my FUCKING gloves on!!!"

Dainese-got a pair when I bought my two Dainese jackets,they looked VERY high quality but didn't fit,sent them back and went to A*. In fact,I had also bought the D boots as well and they didn't fit either,hence my first pair of A* SMX (no +) boots.

Alpinestars GP Techs-never fit right and MURDER to remove and put on. Quality was bad but A* did send me a new pair which I immediately sold for $50...true story. GP Plus-broke four fingers on my left hand wearing them. I was the A* poster boy until then...

Technics,several models-I lived about 5 miles from the Technics HQ and even knew the owner semi-personally. Sorry,but the gloves just didn't last.

Held-they look like good quality and I haven't tried any for years but when I did they felt like "welder's gloves",really thick and cumbersome for street duty IMHO.

I've had Spidi's and Astars. Both were very comfortable and fit well but the palms wore out in a hurry. I've had 2 pairs of Teknic Speedstars and they fit like the above mentioned, but were way more durable. Just one man's opinion. I think they discontinued them so you can find them now for about 100 bucks closeout...
