    See if you can find a shop selling Held. I was buying Held gloves from overseas because you couldn't get them here.
    I bought my Helds (size 9) at Motohaus. I know Kerry wasn't importing them himself, so that must mean one of the motorcycle gear importers are.
    I really like them - they're cheaper'n comparable Spidis, well featured, and very comfy.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    I bought Lisa a pair of Held gloves from TSS, very nice. Medium size seemed to agree with previous pair of A*star gloves sizing

    I have retrieved my Orina Summer Carbon's and they fit nicely. They are a 2XL.

    Rant over until these wear out.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    So... how much time does that give you to hunt down some replacements?

    I use Orina summer carbons, which i bought from cycletreads, about $65 pair.
    The first set lasted me 2 years, they are comfortable, and have carbon fibre knuckles. Had to get CT to order my 2nd set in as they didn't have any on the shelf.
    Bought a $200 pair of waterproof winter gloves which i will only wear in < 5 degree temperatures as they are too thick and dont give good control.
    Would rather have cold fingers.
    They said i have so much ass crack that i could be a dealer

    Mate I have no hesitation recommending Quasi's new gloves. Got a pair from him a few months ago, and they are very comfortable and well made.

    I have a pair of Revit gloves, hard armor in the knuckles and fingers etc, they're pretty water proof for leather gloves, cool in summer and not too bad in the winter but they are a little better with some liners when it's cold.

    I got me the Alpinestars 365GTX XXL. They cost $395 retail. I have normal size Kiwi hands I would say and I love the fit.

    I have some RJays gloves - can't recell the size but I had to order them in as I have the same problem like you with hands bigge than the average Pakistani or Chinese. Had them for 5 years with daily commuting for half that time, and only starting to get worn now.
