Who is this nebulous "they?"

 

 

Having come from the construction industry and knowing how important safety gear is, including wearing work gloves i wear full fingered gloves ALWAYS!/ These are what I wear .

I wear the unlined till it gets cold then the lined below 50 degrees.

 

I have some "patrolmans gloves" .... these are great for warm weather. And .... I look like "Ponch" from CHIPS while wearing them ....

Ok, here is what i gotta say about this! Im 6'2", glove size usually runs 2X, shoe and boot size is 13. I got big ears, big mouth, and a big nose. So, what happened? Isnt there supposed to be something else that follows suit? Ah, hell. I own a big harley, fingerless gloves, assless, crotchless, whateverless chaps (no fringe though) and im proud of it. Maybe i am over compinsating, but i just LOVE me! Yep, you can tell im ready for spring!

 

Guess I must be a poor-boy, my buds and I always use welders gloves, would never think of fingerless gloves. To us, just don't make much sense, but I guess if you live where its 90 degrees every day then they may work out. Can't really go along with the "they look cool" train of thought.

 

Fingerless gloves are a PITA to take off or put back on, especially when your hands are sweaty. I gave up on that, and went with vented textile back gloves with leather palm for hot weather.

 

Every one is forgetting the most important benefit of the fingerless glove.......That cool "round circle" tan on the back of your hands!!!

 

Never get this issue some have with this stuff. I prefer fingerless gloves when it's warmer. I like chaps when it's cooler. Duh.
