[QUOTE="Ignacio, post: 1324253, member: 434"] I've had four sets (Classic Size 12 eventually wore the fingers out, the second Classic Size 10 I lost one of the gloves in the IBR with plenty of life, a set of mesh that are marginally better in the summer than the Classics but I always sunburn my hands, and third set I still have...one of the more exotic full-coverage ones that I never seem to wear). They really are premium gloves as a brand. Whether they're worth it is subjective to the purchaser/wearer. But since you brought them up--the last time I tried to find a set I gave up as they weren't being distributed in the U.S. and found an alternative that feels second-best. Too bad they still don't have [URL="https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/held-classic-gloves"][B]Classics again for $70[/B][/URL]. You talk about summer gloves....I wouldn't ignore the Classics as summer gloves at a cheaper price-point to try the Held difference. I've ran two Iron Butt Rallies on them before and they work great. If you can find a set--great gloves. I'm still looking. I've also found I run the brand a little more snuggly as their sewing and detail doesn't require as much slop as other gloves. 12 in work gloves are a bit sloppy for me, but the 10s in Held are a better fit and break in nicely like a second skin.
