Using a pair from Aldi £4 at the moment. There falling apart already after 3 rides. They say what ever touches the bike spend as much as poss so I don't mind how much.

Decathlon gloves are good and you can pick through their levels to decide on how much you want to spend.

Another Specializeed fan here.

Just bought a new pair, the last pair lasted me 5 years before wearing through at the right hand thumb (which obviously isn't a problem with fingerless versions!)

Specialized ones have been good for years but just got some of the Scott ones in the Start cycles sale which are as good, and alot cheaper, but cant coment on how long they will last

Only ever buy cheap mitts and thus far I lose them before I wear them out.

Altura Pro Gel here.

The Aldi ones are great for commuting though

+1 for Spesh. The BG Gel is great.

Spec ones are good if you must have gel padding, their full finger and fingerless gloves are very good. Personally I prefer a standard leather palm without gel bits and so use the cheap Planet-X ones but that doesn't help you!

Chiba Gel Comfort Mitts for me, whenever I eventually wear them out I just buy more. I do quite a lot of long rides and like plenty of padding.

Specialized BG ones are great but don't last forever. I've worn through 2 pairs, but they're good............

Any chance of a link to these specialized gloves. I've looked and come across a few but not sure if they are the ones. Or exact name description please?
