    Has anyone had these gloves at all - pic below - or have and wear them still now? They are the Rjays Daytona glove. I never wear gloves in the summer but since the heat lately has been so bad here in W.A. I'm looking at getting these. ( I have the Rjays Iceberg gloves which are great, but for winter only ) I don't think we are going to have a winter for the next 20 years?

    Yep, had a pair for the last eight months, I would recomend them highly, best fingerless gloves I've had over the years, and that's a few.

     

    Go for it, you won't be sorry.

    I use as pair of these, good gloves even when raining. Problem I have is if wearing these and just a tshirt, my arms get browner but obviously where the gloves are don't so I end with a glove tan, on top of my boot tan and sunglass tan.

    Haha I know what you mean, but the glove tan might be a bit better than having the little spots popping up
    on the back of the hands? Just hope they will help a little?

    G`day All yeah these fingerless gloves are great , very comfortable , maluable perforated leather and breath well in the heat of summer , used to use the old ones with the holes where ya knuckles line up and at the wrist strap for summer gloves but they always left sun burn spots where the holes were , givin ya an even worse glove tan after a day in the sun , these don`t and although not waterproof , work well in the wet too , though the dye does end up on ya hands and bike for a while , beats ya hands peeling on peeling during summer !

    G`day All , yeah cvo66 , had stained hands from other gloves as well in the past , usually the unlined ones though ! They do feel great on ya hands , airy and very comfortable , though rode back from Melb to Syd straight through in January after gettin off the Tassie boat , Gail force winds and absolutely pizzin down rain half the way back to sunny Sydney , usin these exact "drum dyed" leather gloves , i had black hands and dirty black dye , "dry water marks" all over me tank , it did wash straight off though and didn`t stain anything else , it looked fugged on a chrome console and silva duco !
