Hey all

With her boots thread, Vespa just reminded me what I was looking to buy, and I found these.

They seem like a very good price for what they are, am I looking in the wrong place or are they OK? I like the idea of not breaking a bone in my hand if I happen to come off, plus they must be SO much fun to punch provoking chavs with. Twisted Evil

God I dunno Laughing , as little as possible. £25 can't be bad, I paid that for my crappy ones. I'd be willing to spend up to £50 for the right pair.

i dont understand why there is no protection for the first knuckle? Surely this will take alot of brunt in an impact?

Great in the winter those will be Thumbs Up Rolling Eyes

I'm looking for a pair of the Hein Gericke 3-finger gloves - heard rave reviews about them so going to give them a go!

Bits of Carbon Fibre do not make a glove 'good quality'. Have you tried them on? A loose glove could possible cause further injuries as the armour moves and digs in, while a tight glove could cause you to have an accident due to reduced movement.

Nice one, I'll make sure I go to a shop and try on the same model, as long as I find the same ones cheaper online. Thumbs Up
