I am looking to buy some new warm weather gloves. The pair I have are falling apart after just two seasons with them... They are Joe Rocket, I dont know exactly which product. I was wondering if anyone has a suggestion for a glove that has good ventilation and will actually last?

Have a leather pair of perfed gauntlets that are just as cool as my fabric ones... Also have a pair of SetWear leather gloves that work great but wouldn't offer much protection...

I've got Joe Rocket right now. There's a small rip from taking it on and off of my sweaty hand during the MSF course, but other than that, they seem to be holding up well. I'm considering some A-stars and Spidis...

Perfed leather gauntlets, though big, are cool enough and much more protective than the alternatives. I wear RS TaiChi gloves.

If you are still looking for warm weather gloves, I can recommend these
Answer gloves. I've had two pair of Answer gloves but don't have the syncron that are shown in the link below. I tried on a pair today and they run small and I would need an XL. I would have bought a black pair if my size was on the shelf.

I have my second pair of Icon Pursuit gloves. My last pair held up well in a low-side. The insurance company took them before I was compensated but they survived with some scuffing in the palm.
I would say go with perforated leather. My other pair of gloves, AlpineStars if I remember correctly, are already getting fuzzy on the right index finger where it gets snagged in the hook and loop fastener when I put on my left glove.

Anybody ever used Cortech gloves? The stretchy stuff around the wrist on my JR's is ripped, along with the rip in the leather mentioned earlier in this thread, so I'm looking for some replacements. I don't really want gauntlets for what is mostly commuting, so I was checking these out.
