Default What gloves are you wearing?

I'll be needing to buy two new pairs of gloves in the near future. They discontinued my favorite gloves and it's hard to shop for something over the internet only without being able to try them on or see how they feel. Feedback is a huge help!

I need two pairs, as I said before. I'll need a long cuff glove for the track, and a short cuff street glove for commuting and street riding. My primary concern right now is the street gloves because mine are done for. They didn't last a whole freaking season! The local shops only sell garbage, so going to the store and trying them on is unfortunately not an option.

What are you rocking?

I had a nice helmet a few years ago but I made the mistake of locking it with the d ring under the seat when I went into the bike shop and it was cut off of the ring while I was inside. Blew me away that someone would do that.. $600 down the drain.
