Got myself a pair a few months ago. Nice and broken in now and the best pair of gloves I have ever owned. A bit pricey, but well, well recommended. Nice and cool in the summer (just been riding and it's 30C today), tons of protection and I can even do up the double d-ring on my Shoei with them on. I love the ring2little finger clip too.

Check out the pic:

how much did htey set you back? i seem to be going though a pair of gloves a year at the moment

About 60 quid, though I bought them from an auction site in Japan (where I live). It's easy to find XXL sizes for gloves, jackets etc. on the auction sites over here due to size mistakes.

I saw them advertised online for $269.99 which is about 130 quid, so I guess I got them half-price...sweet .

Spidi's an Italian company by the way, so they probably have tons of resellers in the UK.

I also have a year-old pair of their winter/waterproof A83 SportComposite H2OUT gloves. They saw me through a freezing winter with excellent water-proofing; hard-wearing too. Same knuckle protectors as the Penta. Pic:

sounds good price!

its because i like the camel skin gloves as you tend to get more feed back, but they also wear though very quickly

damn...camel skin...they must wear through like crazy! The Penta's are cowhide and Keramide (whatever the hell that is) but feedback is surprisingly high, and they give a lot more confidence with all the support/protection. Here's a link to their 2007 catalogue: http://www.motonation.com/2007catalog.htm. I didn't realise but Spidi is the same company as Sidi (boots) - I have an nicely-ageing pair of Vertebrae too Italy's all good

woops im ment kangaroo lol

ha ha - i was like where the hell does he get camel skin glvoes from!!!?

never owned a pair of kangaroo-skin gloves - heard they really meld to your skin. supposed to be stronger than cowskin in a spill too.
