How are your riding gloves working for you lately? If they are worn, coming apart at the seams, or are just old and crusty, it may be time to put your hands in something else. LPD's DeerTours riding gloves are handcrafted with very few seams. Most riding gloves are made of cowhide, but these are 2.75-plus ounces of U.S. deerskin, which according to LPD, "is more abrasion-resistant than cowhide or goatskin." As for the lack of seams said LPD, "each seam is a potential failure point, and fewer seams mean real safety." With a seamless palm and finger bottoms, these gloves alleviate uncomfortable pressure points as well as offer comfort, dexterity, and longevity. Available in black or tan in sizes XXS-XXXL.

Sick Boy Motorcycles Black Gloves

Sick Boy Motorcycles

Sick Boy Motorcycles has a list of offerings to the public, ranging from bikes to sweatshirts, wifebeaters (don't get any ideas), underwear, headwear, and gloves, like these pictured here. The Sick Boy Gloves are a mechanic-style design that fit great while riding, and hey, having to perform a little mechanical work on your bike. The strong wrist strap with Velcro closure keeps the gloves securely in place, while the trimmed design conforms to your fingers, offering comfort and dexterity. Speaking of fingers, you may just be able to tell that you have all of yours and that they're in working order with the gloves' outside skeletal-bone design. OK, now we're just being sick. Be cool and ride like Skeletor by getting your own pair at www.sickboyinc.com, or by calling
(401) 722-2607.
