i have a pair of Oneal's that's meant for MX. i have been using it for over a year na and it's still like new. d@mn amazing! i would get one again if i find another.
that oakley one is super sweet in the way it fits my hands though. expensive yes but super comfy. plus the price in pinas isn't bad at all.

peachy
yup we have that in stock. the nice thing about these gloves is that they have vents located in the fingers. helps keep your hands dry and cool.

my lbs have these gloves and i think their just more for wank factor than anything else. i've just bought a set of fox digit gloves and they are probably the most comfortable gloves ive ever worn and fits perfectly too.

in all honesty the oakley gloves are all hype.
dakine gloves are sooo much better. the digit gloves are great as well.

I agree.. Fox make good gloves. I have fox sidewinder and mojave for last 3 years and still in excellent shape

BUT no knuckle protection. for XC riders sure u dnt see the need for that. BUT (another but) i dnt ride XC. at least i try not to. ;D

oh yeah, Peachy is a downhill guy. forgot about that. another good alternative would be the sixsixone gloves.

Will probably get one before the next race.... p-gutz, did u get one? meron ba pa? where's this John Wilkie store? did ya get a good price? myb i could ask my brad to get one for me. don-B, 661... brown camo? sorry but that just doesn't look good to me. i dnt mind paying a little more for some style. i'm a designer after all. 661 is almost always good value though. i have their legs and arms armour and i'm still wearing them after many years. now replaced by the new fox launch... trying it out. btw, how come you think oakley's all hype? not very durable? unrelated, did u know that the US military uses the same gloves.... supposedly. just read that... not first hand info. i'm NOT saying it's good also just coz they are using it.

all hype becoz they are soooo darn expensive! Hehe. Yeah oakley also supplies the US military with combat boots and rapelling gloves. They are durable, and stylish and EXPENSIVE!!!!! Heck if you want durable gloves check out blackhawk industries. they supply the US military with very durable stuff and they come with a lifetime guarantee. They even make their own hydration packs wich look better and perform better than camelbak. I tore my hydration unit last year during field exercises, shipped it to Blackhawk and they replaced the entire hydration pack all for free. www.blackhawkindustries.com/uploads/product_images/65900-All_1.jpg

don, w/ a hydration like that of course they can offer a lifetime warranty. it's rectangular man. i can sew that myself. well i think you and i know it's not all about durability. honestly i hate the fact that it's oakley. i dnt need that oval sign all over the place. seems they love putting that "O" all over the place but the gloves did felt good when i tried it on. most gloves tends to fits a little too long on the fingers for me... not very safe in my opinion.

Speaking of "hyped-up" gloves, I bought the Troy Lee Grand Prix gloves last year, which was advertised as very durable in magazines... after several (3-4?) uses, the part between the thumb and the forefinger has been ripped already...I am not even a race level rider, and they are not too tight. Even a little loose in fact Had them sewn by my mom, still using them now... maybe my mom can go work for Troy Lee hehehe

p-gutz, did u get one? meron ba pa? where's this John Wilkie store? did ya get a good price? myb i could ask my brad to get one for me. Haven't been to the shop lately. (nagtatago sa utang! lol) Actually I havent touched my bike for over 2 weeks due to recent surgery. Last time I checked meron pa. Wil check price again. If I remember correct its around P2,400. Forgot the color but not camou. John Wilkie gives good deals naman. I just get stuffs there and pay anytime I want, no DP needed. (kapal muks na lang pag pina-abot mo pa 6 months! ;D) I can probably haggle for 10% less if its cash basis! ;D
