BMW ProSummer X-Trafit Gloves

Those look nice. What were you wearing before?

I believe these are the gloves I have presently - Tourmaster Dri-Mesh Gloves. Got them from a local motorcycle shop here in Houston and you know how bad their selections are.

I've had a pair of the Held Airstream 2 gloves, for the last 2 summers, which work well for me.

The Held Airstream II Gloves are indeed nice. But they don't claim to be waterproof. I was looking for waterproof gloves. I like the two tone color scheme of these Helds though.

I have the REV'IT! Sand 3 Gloves for dry summer use. Nice and cool, but watch the stiching. Had to return one pair under warranty.

Had some Cycle Gear winter gloves for the cooler temps, but they were too bulky and didn't do such a great job.

My [Houston-grade] winter gloves are still the old inexpensive Bilt (?) gloves I got from Cycle Gear when I first got back into motorcycling in 2014. They work well and are comfortable and are still holding up!

But, after a conversation with Mark (on the Helen trip) I picked up some BMW 2 in 1 gloves. So far, in the mixed up weather conditions of Fall & Winter here in NC, they have been great! Doing a wonderful job of keeping the digits comfortable in the cold (27F) and breathing reasonably well in the heat (82F). The right glove is usually more difficult to find than boots, for me anyway.

I agree that gloves are a tougher find than boots ... hands are more varied between people than feet, I think. Especially finger length vs palm circumference. I think they need to also use finger length in their sizing charts. Seems like most gloves are made for chimps (Alpinestars come to mind).

I do remember Mark extolling the virtues of the BMW 2-in-1 gloves as we waited in the gas station parking lot for a certain Bob who had gone missing ....
