A* SMX-5 Gloves

or



Looking for shorty leather gloves, sick of using my A* SP-1 for everyday street riding.

MrX,

Since you foolishly asked for my opinion, I have to confess that I think shorty gloves are like half-helmets.. That forearm armor protection comes in really handy, even in a low speed fall. And the carbon knucks are ideal for beating the **** out of the guy who knocked you over.

But having said that, I'm not the guy who lives in the desert...

Well I appreciate the input but I dont live in the desert either....ManchVegas, New Hampshire is where I call home.

I have considered the difference in lack of protection and I would think the sleeves of my jacket would be more than enough wouldnt they???? I havent fallen down yet so I honestly dont know

The sleeves of whtever you're wearing are very likely to get pushed your arm a bit during a slide/tumble, which is when a longer gauntlet would be most welcome

I have a pair and love them. You won't be let down, just buy em.
