New Gloves
Last week I bought a pair of Five Stunt Evo Air gloves. They're great for hot weather. Check them out here.

Now, I know you'r probably not interested in my purchase, but they do have one neat feature. The tips of the index finger gloves work a touch screen. That's fantastic as it means I can behave just like a car driver and text while I ride.

Possibly the worst narration of a motorcycle product video I have ever heard and yet I felt compelled to watch it in its entirety.

Given the number of wrong turns I make, not having to remove a glove to check my directions could shave hours off of my trips.

jachammer, sorry for the late reply. I've been away.

I live in Brisbane Australia and I bought them at a local dealer. I can give you details if you want.

That explains it. I really like those gloves but couldn't find them here.

RE: New Gloves
jackhammer, they do have some dealers in the USA. See http://five-gloves.com/dealers/?area=nor...untry=Usa. I'd be reluctant to buy them without trying them on as they seem to be a small fitting. I'd expect to be an M or L but ended up with XL if I recall.

RE: New Gloves
I'm in the market for some riding gloves, still doing some research.

I'd be looking at warmer weather gloves, trying to keep it about $50. Some of the 'closeout' offers seem doable. I do the bare hand thing a lot, just trying to gear up better.
