Review on ๐Ÿงค Indie Ridge Large Premium Leather Motorcycle Gloves in Brown - Full Gauntlet with Touchscreen Compatibility for Mobile Phone by Carlos Barete

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great workmanship on these gloves!

The first time I ordered gloves... I always felt the need to try them on in case of theft. So why did I order them? Two things... First, the sizing chart made it easy to figure out what size I need... and second, (and that's a HUGE second!) is Indie Ridge's Free Stay Guarantee... The company's owner even includes his phone number in the package if you have problems or questions. So I bought them knowing that if I had any concerns, Indy Ridge would have my back! Let's talk about the color first...these brown mittens have a frayed appearance and are actually a little darker than advertised, but after riding them a few hundred miles I can feel the soft, stretchy leather tearing and lightening becomes (just like any other glove). Some of the nice features of the gloves are: The fingers are pre-curved to fit the contour of the bike. Grips... Hardened areas include the knuckles, knuckles of the ring and middle fingers. Abrasions in the fleshy and lower parts of the palm. Touchscreen pads on both gloves (and they really work!) Fit was spot on for me (just use their chart...when in doubt, I suggest going up a size). Right out of the box they felt a little tight but after a few rides they are sooooo comfortable! These are mittens but they are not advertised as winter riding gloves and they are not... I checked them out. 32 degrees Fahrenheit and my fingers felt cold, but I also thought they were great in temperatures over 50 degrees Fahrenheit! I don't usually talk about packaging but hey I gotta get here...they came in the coolest canvas drawstring bag! My gloves don't go back (usually they just lie on the gas tank after the ride), but the woman is already thinking about what she's going to use them for, HAHA. In summary, I can say that this is the best genuine leather pair. the gloves I had and if I ever wear them I am considering buying another pair from Indie Ridge.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
