Glo Glov

One of the fellas on my motorcycling forum recommended them but I thought I'd check here to see how they work on womens hands (I've got a bunch of gloves that have failed miserably in that arena).

Haven't tried them, but from the picture it looks like the thumb hole is almost even with the finger holes. That's usually the problem with women wearing men's gloves - our thumbs start much closer to the wrist.

<partial thread hijack: try Held gloves for motorcycling, very high quality with a TRUE unisex design that's comfortable for most women>

the biggest problem i see for women is they are BIG and loose.

I've worn Helds for years...excellent stuff!

That's what I've found with mens cycling gloves in general...I'm a plus size woman but I wear a mens medium glove, and they fit kinda wonky.

Mimi, where'd you get 'em?

I've just about given up on women's gloves - most are far too small for my big ol' honkin' hands. Full-fingered gloves are the worst and are invariably too short in the fingers -- I pop holes in the tips before long (and I don't have very long nails).

These Glo-gloves look pretty neat, tho. No dealers in my area, however.

There's a police supply store in town that sells them. I need to ask Raleighdon, I forget what the place is called.
