What's a good all around riding glove for the old thumb Throttlers ???? Looking for Vibration dampening, Durability, and all around comfort. Thanks.

i like my dirt paws that i have. i have had a couple of pairs and they seem to fit alright and keep my hands warmer on the cool nights. lol mechanics wear are probably your best bet if you want some with alot of padding in the palms and such though. most riding gloves i have came across dont have enough to really make a big difference. just my .02 though. steve

The Dirt Paws look like good gloves, I was also looking at some Texport Gels with a Gel palm. Has anyone tried Them ??? They're about the same price.

I wear the dirt paws also and feel like they get the job done well. My brother wears these for work and rides with them to they are metacarpal safety gloves here is a link if you want to check them out. Lots of padding and protection.

Okay... Now The dirt paws i have never had good experience with... Maybe thats just because i am preferentional to O'Neal because they are my main sponsor. I would look for a gloce that the entire palm is leather. They will last forever and have half decent dampening. I would also find a good fitting glove that doesn't have velcro or straps. My old Thor's just slipped on and they are much comfier than my old dirt paws.

I've had two pairs of Dirt Paws and they are awesome, I've also convinced my buddy to run them as well and he loves them. Bang for buck and quality construction. Can't go wrong.

Craftsman mechanic gloves works good for me and they are comfortable.

Nah all my dirtpaws fell apart though so I stopped buying them.
I have 661 flight gloves. I like the little grippies on the index and middle fingers for the clutch and brake levers. They're good in the water too for when I use them jet skiing. Hold up really well, even with the salt.

I have the Fox Bombers in white. They are comfortable. Breathe good and the leather palm is holding up nice. The "carbon fiber" adds a little protection also

I like the Mechanix gloves and I’ve had good luck with them. I like them for summer riding because there thin and wick moister away fast. For winter riding I just use plan deer skin gloves.
