Help me choose new gloves
#35
Thank you all for your help. I have gone for the GP pros 2013 model. I went to MCA Leicester and they were great I tried on the med then the Large about 10 times - sat on my bike with them everything and convinced myself that I should go for the tighter M so they can bed in. And I think it was astep too far my palms are not big but my fingers are long and were stuffed to the ends, my thumb got pins and needles, the armour in the pinky dug in to my knuckles and the wrist strap was more on the bottom of the hand rather than around the wrist. The issue was that the large felt perfect from the start but everything I read said get a tighter fit and they will stretch. The good news is that I got them exchanged at MCA and cannot thank them enough, I now have the large and they fit perfect, still need bedding in here and there. I'm thinking that yes leather will stretch but only if it is being stretched by hands too big for them. I did not quite know how I would get on with the last 2 fingers being stitched together but I 100% do not notice it as they are separated by 1/2 inch of leather and just upto the knuckle. I never thought about it before but I actually only use 1 finger to brake, all four are on the leaver but im only using the middle one most of the time unless I really need extra and then the others join in. 
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
