Features to Look for in your Next Pair of Gloves
We have so many good choices for gear these days that it gets complicated to pick what we need. In this article I have tried to break down the features of the different glove categories to help you pick the right ones for you. It will likely be most useful for new riders, but maybe even the experienced guys will find something new.
If I have left something out, let me know. http://www.spiritstrike.com/gear/201...al-sport-glove

Nice job.
I'd add something about fit and ergonomics to the comfort write-ups. This is not quite the same as comfort. Illustration: I own two kinds of race gauntlet. Superficially they are the same... similar design, similar materials. Both are pre-curved. Different brand/model. Both are comfortable and fit well when my hand is relaxed. But one pair doesn't let me curl my fingers as easily as the other. Getting a full fist formed takes effort. This makes the standard grip of ring and little finger wrapped around the throttle less than ideal. Accordingly, that pair has become my backup.
