Default What riding gloves are you using?

I have never rode with gloves, never really thought about using them. So what do you guys use? how do you like them? how do they hold up?

LOL. Personal preference. I buy the cheaper thin gloves and go threw a few pair in one year. I prefer the feeling of thin, lite gloves.

Sometimes I wear my Burt Reynold edition gloves like on Smokey and the Bandit, with the holes on the knuckles. But that's only when I wear my Trans-Am jacket.

I've got a pair of about 25 year old axo gloves that my dad gave me. They have a couple holes in them now from me using the hell out of them, but they're good gloves. Much better material then the gloves today considering that he used them all those years ago on his YZ125. I'm looking to replace them with a pair of Thor's
