Well they design their gear around performance and not focusing so much on "looks" like other companies do. you would have to question wheather you would rather a broken finger or look "like and idiot" I know which one i would choose.

Saying that everybody is entitled to an opinion and I have no problems with it! lol

they look ok.. maybe a change of colour.. more white instead of spacey silver!

if they protect the hand.. and are light... then its all good

pity about the price though $129.90 (thats about £75 uk - I'll wait till they come down a bit in price tbh)

quite frankly i dont like the look of any of their gear. but im sure the performance would better than average. thats what really counts though. if ya cop one on the legs at 130-140kph its gonna hurt if you dont have good protection

I've never had any problems or broken fingers with my gloves which I paid £10 for, so I think I'll be sticking with those  :)

They're just the plain white ones which I get made in India, but it's easy enough to get a set of SS Super Test gloves or SG Hi-Lite's in India for around £12-13 (or £25 in the UK). They're the exact same gloves as a lot of the Indian test team use.

Never had a broken finger and have alwayas managed to get by. Paying that sort of money you could get top of the range gloves from most if not all companies. I think their top of the range might just be good enough.

Think they look a bit weird but If you had all matching aero gear like the sponsored players do it looks cool just the gloves would look a little funky in my opinion.

i think they are trying to solve a problem that isnt there. if it ain't broke don't fix it! Tom would you like to sell me a couple of plain gloves :)

Nozza, have you tried the Aero's, and have substantial evidence that aero's dont go 'crusty'?

At least you can say proudly i look like a plonker wearing these  ;)
I'm sure they offer excellant protection but just cant get over the looks when you can buy top of the range gloves from probably any brand for the same price (i expect) and look normal.

Well if 75 smigaroons is the price tag.... that's absolutely rediculous!
