Default Alpinestars GP Plus gloves

Just picked up a pair last night...felt comfy wearing them around the house, haven't ridden with them yet.

Anyone have them? Any thoughts?

I have a pair.

GREAT gloves.

Mine are pretty worn out these days, if you don't like them, let me know.

I sold a pair to someone on the board. They were nice gloves. I like my techs a bit better.

I like them. The cuff is short, but so are most race gloves anymore. It took a while for my wrist strap to feel right, but after wearing them to the rally, they fit perfect.

You sold them twice. You were kind enough to sell them for a good price with a return ( minus shipping ) clause.

I'm still pissed they were too small for me

I keep checking www.ironpony.com and check out the closeouts for deals on gloves. I want a pair of gauntlet/race gloves
