It's a shame that Jimmy from Velocity Sportsgear is no longer doing gloves.....the VR-Pro gauntlets were the best $200 gloves you could find.

I was in touch with Jimmy today......he can still get the VR-Pro's, but only on custom order now at $280 (he no longer keeps inventory).
 
That style is available in a full gauntlet too as OP prefers, as the Druid ST (delete the first S- for Shorty). Maybe another $20.

For summer gloves, I now look for perforations on the interior sides of the fingers so I can control the cooling on the go. Relax and separate the fingers a little bit, air rushes in. Keep the fingers close together, air is kept out. With the knuckle "hood scoops" designs I don't get that choice.

Dainese Druids S-ST

These are around $200 at Riders Choice (with cash discount)

I find them to be a pretty good glove for the summer.

currently purchased the full gauntlet of that glove. druid st in white/red/black. i love how there's perforation between the fingers. currently just breaking them in.
 
I bought a pair of A* Celer shorty gloves this year. Perf between the fingers as well as conductive fabric on the finger tip so you can use your phone without taking the glove off. Handy for setting the gps etc. So far they're great after a couple thousand km in them.
 
I would recommend the Knox ORSA leather short riding gloves.
 
I will be doing a group buy on a modfied version of the VR-Pro. Will still have Stringray sliders but we have added Kevlar Liner on the inside. The gauntlet style has also changed. Overall the most protective race glove you can find. I am waiting for samples to do images and will have group buy on here hopefully within this month.

Any location in West end of GTA carries Alpinestar gloves, interested in Celer.
Went to GP few days ago and must've had a brain fart cuz I forgot to look at gloves :)

Joe Bass, the Joe Rocket gloves you're referring to are the Blaster Shorty gloves.

Mimico Polak, these gloves are excellent in the summer! I have worn them for 3 seasons now. They have good airflow, protection and help against fatigue when riding for long distances. The gloves are north American cut so they fit large. The gloves retail for $87 at Royal or GP Bikes.

Couldn't find the model name to confirm the above.



Edit: These are for sale, bought them used, wore them once. They are too small. I'd like to get the same $40 I paid.
