i'm on my second pair of full-fingered gloves in the last 6 months. the first one i bought from Full Throttle in Robinsons Pioneer. The second pair I got from Action Hobbies.

I'm severely disappointed with both. Imagine, I paid about 1.2k for each pair but it didn't even last me 3 months. Both pair is already worn out in that part where the thumb joins the palm. I only ride a Nouvo.

The attendant from Action Hobbies even told me that the Japanese brand I was looking at (and eventually bought) was using a pair from the same brand for a year already. Ok, sabi ko, I'll try it.

Buti pa yung original half-finger gloves ko which I bought for P700 bucks, ayos pa din.

My hands are small, and I'm having a difficult time finding gloves that really fit. Gusto ko sana ng good fitting leather, full-finger gloves eh.

Recommendations?

try mo yung mga gloves na bramded na like teknic leathers, joe rocket, dainese and other brands...yun kahit semplang mo,100 meters bago ma worn out yung gloves...or palit ka ng grips...kasi yung sa friend ko gamit niya big boy, parang liha yung grips, ang bilis mabutas nung gloves na binili namin..
ride safely bro...

Try Held gloves. Its german made and they specialize in gloves. They have a line that uses kangaroo leather which is said to be much tougher than deerskin. But be ready to pay for hefty price though. One pair would go for 10K up.

on tight budget, you can try gloves sold in Cartimar used for bicycles. i good pair cost you around 800 at most. They have a good grip on your handles.
