Revainrating 3 out of 5

Very happy with MK II Scorpions

I really like these gloves. I used to wear the predecessor, the Scorpion Exo SGS MK I. In comparison, the MK II version has upgraded knuckle guards. I didn't like the look at first, but I've grown to love them. The MK I had a more natural looking human joint, while they have a split joint format with a more impressive translucent style. It retains the Knox hip guard (palm sliders) which I can assure you is solid, as I learned a few years ago with a set of MK I gloves on a low side impact (for the record, they could have taken more punishment). may if they would have been required.) In the case of motorcycle gloves, navicular protection is required. The controls on the MK II are also closer together than on the MK I. In this respect, I will not use less. The stitching is regular, not Kevlar like the MK I. In my previous MK I set the leather came loose at the stitching as the Kevlar stitching was stronger than leather. As for the new additions, the MK II gloves have rubber number blocks which obviously help protect your fingers even better. The MK I gloves simply had ventilation on the fingers. With added padding, the MK II's cuff also appears to cover the wrist a bit more than the MK I style, along with longer Velcro straps. MKII. The gloves were initially stiff but after a few days of riding they started to shape in my hands. The inside little finger of the left hand was a little uncomfortable and the palm of the right hand felt a little loose, but not enough to complain. For gloves under $100, you get excellent protection. I have uploaded photos of MK I and MK II, MK II and finally my old MK I gloves.
