Honestly the true reason for fingerless gloves is for your chronic nose pickers!

I use them in the summer...... they make it easy to get into my pockets for money at toll booths when I forget to bring my easy pass.

The only thing I hate about them is the exposed areas of my hands get a lot tanner then the rest of my hand.

I have always wondered about men who comment on what other men wear, just saying.

Well young man ..... I was not commenting on what someone wears. I was joking that if "chaps" don't have an *** in them, then why do fingerless gloves have palms. I could really give a rats *** what anyone wears. I don't wear HD clothing, I wear chaps when the temp is below 60 and windy. I wear gloves when it's cold, don't when it's warm and only wear a helmet in states that it's the law. I never wear a rag on my head and only go to dealerships to buy parts. I don't have thousands of post because I am normaly out riding. I live in a state where the wind chill this am is 14. A little cold to ride so I am getting ready to "go catch dogs" sorry if I offended you or made you "wonder" about me. I don't put that much thought or stock in fourms. Now I have to go wax my " Ride to Live (except when I am making thousands of post) Live to Ride" sticker. It takes up the whole rear window of my HD edition Ford Truck ... just sayin

Default 3 Finger Fingerless Gloves

I just got me a set of 3 finger fingerless gloves...that right the thumb, index and middle finger are cut off. Got them so I can control my I-pod better and the middle one makes it easier to get that bird up without interference in those emergency situations. The lack of a black leather also makes my pale finger show up nicely, good contrast against my black leather jacket. Not sure why the thumb is unsheathed, guess it makes it easier to hitch if the need arises.

I suppose with only 2 fingers covered (ring and pinky) that makes me a 3/5th poser or would it be a 2/5 poser. Fractions were never my strong suit.

This post is too funny.

Later

Default Fingerless Gloves hmm

Okay, the purpose of wearing gloves is to protect your hands. If you're riding and worrying about how you look, you might want to consider riding a Vespa along the streets of Rome, wearing short shorts, dyeing your hair blonde, and mooning over George Clooney. In other words people, these aren't fashion accessories, they're PPE or for the uninformed fashionistas, Personal Protective Equipment.
