Short-term Review - Alpinestars GP-Pro Gloves:



Alright, well since i'm doing the intro session with nesba in september i thought it might be necessary to buy some adequate gloves to protect my hands since my current gloves would be nothing short of a disaster if i were to go down at anything above 30 mph. I bought these new off eBay for $120 shipped. The large was a little tight at first, but now it is excellently snug. The webbing attaching the ring finger and the pinky was hardly noticable for me, since i usually grab the clutch with all the fingers and the brake with just my index and middle. The palm feels quite thick with the kangaroo leather palm patch and the armour is excellent. Breathability is also quite good. I did notice at first it started to bunch up in the palm and in the finger tips with the extra leather on the inside. After a week the glove has conformed nicely to my hand.

I'm very happy with this purchase and i have a lot of confidence that my hand will be very resistant to severe injury incase i were to go down.

EDIT: does anyone have a size us48 1-pc that i can try on? Don't worry, i'll shower before hand ...and i won't fart in it
