  • gloves for hot days

    does anyone wear gloves on 90-95+ degree days? I want to find some mesh gloves that have some padding/armor, but its hard to say what won't be too hot.

    I wore my full leather gloves all last summer in Texas.
    (Jacket, lid and boots too)
    We broke a record for most days over 100 in August by the way. I didn't have any issues. Mesh gloves split open like ripe tomatoes from what I have seen..

      i just got my moto gp RPM gauntlet style gloves. full leather with carbon knuckle protection. after a long ride (150 miles on an 80 degree day) my hands didn't sweat any more than in my "mesh" shorty joe rockets. more protection with no discomfort.

          Get some JR phoenix gloves or any major brands textile mesh or perforated leather gloves. Believe me your hands will thank you if you happen to have a get off at any speed.

            I wear gloves no matter what the temp is. I have Alpinestar alloy gloves which are pretty good in the heat.

              I've got some Cortech HDX leathers. They feel pretty good, even in the heat.

                I think I have A* SMX gloves right now. They are nice on a hot day.

                  i have the moto gp nitrous gloves and I found out the same thing. They flow so much that on a 50degree morning your hands can actually get cold on the highway.
