The only gloves I will buy are AXO. They hold up great. I haven;t found a better kind of gloves yet. Don;t go cheap on gloves.Cheap ones fall apart if ya go expensive ont eh first pair then ya won't gotta buy a buncha other pair.

I have some FOX gloves, not top of the line but the middle ones. I like them but am looking for a better glove since now that I am doing a bit more riding and for longer period of times I get blisters and man do those thing sbecome a pain in the *****...

I am looking to get Skin Ind. or the fox gloves with the air scoops.

I figure if they have more air running in them, your hands stay dryer, less sweaty, and you would get less blisters or none.

Correct me if my thinking is wrong...

I have some thor wind stopper gloves and they do pretty good.They are only a month or so old.And the only hole in em so far is where i was warming my fingers up when it was 17 degrees On the second ride too.Left em on there just a bit to long.Other then that no problems.

i have worn all kinds of gloves. i have worn most of the gloves that have been mentioned so far too. a ton of my friends race too so i get to try all kinds of gloves. the best to date i have ever used are my no fear formula gloves. they are so nice and so far they have been more than durable. the only thing thats cheap on em is the grippy stuff on the fingers. its peeling off but thats ok cuz it doesn't really do anything anyways. i really suggest these gloves they are great! i included a pic of mine but they have a new model out now that looks even better.

Fox and shift usually last me a little while (maybe 2 mo) durring race season.

I had Thor core 2's and 3's, they were horible. They fell appart and packed out in 1 days riding, I'll never buy another pair of those.

I love my mechanix gloves, and that's what I use a lot. Only one complaint with mechanix, the leather they use holds moisture a lot. So, after about an hour of riding they are all damp from sweat or track moisture :-( Wet hands lead to blistered hands.

I wish AXO made their gloves the way they used to in the early 90's when they had those big rubber armor pads on them. I still have a pair, they are worn, but they held up for much longer than any other glove I've ever had.

here is a pic of my fox dirt paws. they are 20 bucks and have lasted me a summer so far and they still look brand new after using them 4 day a week all summer long. they have stood up good after repeated washings and have not fadded. they have a good amount of pading and i have yet to get a blister while wearing these gloves.
