If you look on ebay someone might be buying them in and selling on at 70 quid, nice wee earner. Anyone here?
Ah...but are they CE marked?
If they're not then, in the event of an accident, the insurance company gets your house and your first born.
Its the law.
Do they really take your first born?
Where do I get a pair?
(Of gloves, thanks)
Mine arrived today - a large or size 10
Fit is perfect and 'fit like a glove'
Feel good and look good - I bet they are all made in the same factory
Arrived in 7 days, great service
All labels are the same
If they last ok, I will be well pleased..............1/3 rd of the price
Kind of agree with you there. Unfortunately there arnt many decent bike shops left in Ireland. Most will happily offer to order stuff in for you. I can do that myself thanks. If it was the internet that killed Mountjoy what chance would they have today? JJHA great deal but this is killing the high street.
Go in to your dealer \ shop, try the stuff and get your size then go online and buy.
No shop can compete with Amazon and the like.
Gloves last me a long time and it doesn't matter that they are 70 quid.
I get to visit a bike shop have a natter play with the knobs on the bikes + coffee and a spin.

Not sure if there was a thread about these or on ADVrider.
Unknown to me my wife ordered herself a pair of BMW GS gloves from Ebay, posted direct from China for £26.99, they arrived 10 days later.
Now then, the ones you happily splash out £69 from your local dealer are also made in China with 20% Kangaroo leather, 23% Goat leather etc. etc.
I've just spent (wasted) quite some time comparing them to my own pair.....exactly the same, in fact in places the Chinky ones appear slightly better quality.
So, my guess is they're not counterfeit but just the factory in China cutting out the very fat middle man.
If they are counterfeit then they're very, very good and could only guess perhaps there's no Kangaroo leather but there's certainly appears to be no difference there either.
Totally agree. Bought my Sustem 6 helmet and new Rallye jacket from my local dealers Riders Cardiff. Now found out they're shutting down, I triedA great deal but this is killing the high street.

Just saw these on another forum. Look familiar to you ?

Bit of an update.
....but then last Saturday whilst trail riding in atrocious condition in Snowdonia I noticed the leather on the palm has an almost plastic coating which began peeling off!
This coating also causes them to be a little slippy on the levers
I noticed when riding with your wife, last Saturday that the dye is not proofed and she ended up with black hands.................due to thorough soaking she gave those gloves in that rain
