Apologies for the reupload, wanted to include some pros and cons I'd neglected to include in my haste, I endeavour to be more scrutinous in the future reviews. 😅🧤 Mainly I'd still say go for them if you like the looks of them, but do recognise that the style and price of the gloves is weighted against the safety. The more stylish you go, either the cost must rise or the safety rating, I suppose? Still, they are a nice pair of gloves, and the knuckles (Probably the most crucial safety impact zone on a glove, alongside the palm) are CE rated, it would be nice to see the whole thing fully CE rated, hopefully Fogy will be able to manage this in future glovewear.
Great looking gloves. I use "Indie Ridge" here in the usa. Their gloves and boots are excellent. You can't beat their customer support. I wore their golden glove and a seam came loose. I took a pic sent it in and had another glove in days. No questions asked. I have been wearing their comanche boots. Protective caps toe heel and ankles. Super lateral rigidity. But comfortable to walk in. Anyway. I wore them everyday for 5 months. The toe cap seam came loose in a section Not undone just loose. I explained I think I got it caught on the lower hinge of my gym locker. The owner sent a new replacement pair free of charge . He explained he likes to understand how his product may fail so he can improve them. Excellent products and service. Look them up on this platform. It's great to pick up a product and not have to worry if there is a problem.
Nice! They look like a really nice pair of gloves, the reviews on their website are glowing 😁 The Comanche Boots have a really nice style to them, would love to get a pair for casual riding and walking about town! Sound like a decent company 👍
Great looking gloves, they look well made and look a similar colour to my saddle bags, I'll be looking at their web site when I get a chance, thanks for the reupload, cheers..
No helmet!? 😂 I'd love the freedom of the wind flowing through my hair, but dunno could I bring myself to do it 😆 Illegal here too, maybe if I'm in your state someday I'd try it 😄
I usually ride with summer gloves in the depths of the winter, BUT I cheat .. Using huge winter handlebar mittens + heated grips and my hands are in very good pocket of warm air.

Well done for the update, Brendan.

Thanks Les! Thought it best to doubly clarify on the safety points, just in case. 😁
Well I like um Brendon. Very retro 👌
Cheers Jason! 😁
Good call on the additional content 👍. Oh, sometimes I also don't wear a helmet 😉 😅

@@BulletWanderer it's legal to go without a helmet in my state. Don't do it very often though.

Been thinking about getting those handlebar mittens for Daisy, but it is a trade off in style 😂 Sounds toasty though with the heated grips!
