Even before covid there seems to have been a lack of gloves in stock on the main online multi sport shops. I like Endura's fit of their full fingure range but recent reviews put me off.

Would like something full finger gloves to use until it gets cold enough to use my winter ones.

Just ripped a pair of Endura Hummvee Lites that were so comfy but don't last long.

I've got some endura single-tracks. They are pretty decent. I've had 3 pairs of gloves (all different brands) on rotation during covid and these feel like the toughest

Lite (sic) gloves aren't built to last. Regular Endura gloves (Singletrack/Hummvee) last perfectly well.

I wish 661 would go back to the old materials for their Comp gloves, instead of making them lighter. Things were better in the olden days when gloves were gloves, etc....

If we're in a Good Fox Gloves Year then I'd try those. But they go through random spells of changing all their designs to be rubbish

I've got some Fox ones which are lightweight and a good few years old now. Only complaint is the velcro cuff is a bit rubbish.

Otherwise, they might be a bit warm, but I have some Mechanix gloves for working on the cars. Sure I've seen people riding in them before and they seem absolutely bombproof.

I have Endura Dexters and they are lasting pretty well. Stitching on the last pair started to fail after about 6 years though, the bastids.

I’d go for the endurance hummvee NOT lites. I’ve had mine for ages and they’re still good.

I prefer fingerless gloves at this time of year, and specialised bg would be my first choice

Muc off gloves are fantastic

Just received fox ranger gloves and they are very breathable despite feeling protective. They have grips for levers and are touchscreen compatible so can't see why not 😂

Although do check sizing as they seem to be sized small, wiggle only had XXL and they fit like a glove 😉

Specialized do great gloves, I have several pairs of the old BG ridge, need to look for a replacement soon but these are discontinued.

Fox Ranger lasted better than Endura for me. But then, everything seems to last better than Endura.

Fox Ranger gel gloves and mitts are my faves, but I cannot seem to get them anywhere at the moment. Maybe they're doing redesign or something.
