Recently its been to hot in all my gear.
So I have taken the the extra warm layer out my jacket and bought some new gloves. My hands were getting so hot and they were getting tatty anyway.

Nice and cool Very Happy And it feels so good taking big bulky gloves off and having these on.
And best of all, you still have PERFECT use of your hands at petty stations and in shops.

Recommend them. Or at leased some of this kind.

Hmm, not sure I'd fancy sliding down the road in mountain bike gloves Confused

My summer ones are kind of similar to these (though a bit knacked now).

Good protection on the back and nice & thin on the palm for feel.

As per usual, my exact model was actually decent so they've stopped making them. Rolling Eyes

I got a pair of Alpine Stars SMX Air Carbons cheap some time ago. They're just right: thin enough to allow you to manipulate fiddly things like debit cards, and they offer enough protection of the palms and knuckles to allay any fears.

I've got a set of vented Alpinestars GP Plus gloves, they are great, and offer good protection to boot. Thumbs Up

Im wearing spada winter gloves at the moment and have no trouble with heat at all, the added advantage is that on days like today were it is about to piss down, my hands stay nice and dry still Thumbs Up

I have been using Spidi Race Vent Coupe and there absolutely fantastic!! Loads of ventilation on both the back of the hand and on the fingers, but complete leather and keramide constuction which would be much more substantial in an off than cheap textiles.

There pricey at £75 but well worth it.[/img]
