I just received a pair today. They look pretty good; not armoured but leather in the right places. I'll be testing them this weekend at the West Virginia GSR Rally. First impression: very nice, just what I was looking for.

Ordered a pair...thanks for posting! Great price (even cheaper than listed, due to the strong Canadian $) & free shipping, to boot. If the quality is there, might be worth checking out their jackets / pants etc. -
Please, guys please purchase some armoured gloves.
When I low-sided, an armoured knuckle saved my hand from serious injury, regular leather would not have done it. I cringe to think about that happening to anyone else.
I still believe good boots, gloves and helmet are more important then a jacket or pants.
No judgement, just concern and unfortunate experience.Comment

Yes, I have a couple pairs of those kevlar knuckled gloves too, that I wear most of the time.....these are for casual jaunts around town, to the gym etc., when I usually also substitute the leather Teknik or Scorpion jacket for mesh (CE armoured, but obviously not as protective as leather). I agree it's less protection, but I ride accordingly....and it's better than going without, eh?Comment

When I did my get off last Dec , I had (carbon fiber??) armored knuckle gloves with full gauntlets. There was barely a scratch on my glove but my knuckle (between index and midd finger) swelled up about a good 3/4-1".
It went down pretty quickly and was not too sore, but a plain glove would have been painful.Comment
