Just wanted to share my opinions of the Spidi Penta Gloves......
Costs a little more than some of the gloves out there around 260-270ish. but the feel, it's extremely comfortable and gives you a sense of securiy for your hands, even brand new, it feels completely broken in already. These are by far the best gloves in my opinion that I have owned. This is my second pair (sold last ones wth the bike.....stupid). Will be hard to go to another type of glove in the future....hahaha. Haven't gone down with either set I have owned but the top of the hand, it has a slider-like material that gives you peace of mind at least for your hands and wrist......
