My gloves have a hole!

[mynameis]

I was worried when the first hole appeared but now they're just soooo comfy.

Ixon brand if anyone wants a pair.

Thumb was indicator, finger was clutch lever.

You need to get some new gloves man.

not through a bin either, in the tip of the left hand thumb, there is a hole!
had em for about 1 year, but i never wore them much, maybe 50-30x max.
i have some blurry photo's, but it seems like the leather aint much good.
why would it wear through there, it never touches anything while riding

Except in winter...

[NordieBoy]

nope, i have a real short nail on that thumb too, and hardly wore the gloves.
the wear just seems so premature.

Just a thought but does the inside of your thumb touch your pointy finger when you ride?

Mine dosn't normally but if I'm hanging on wheely/stoppie wise it does.

I had similar happen with my gloves, it turned out a combination of the oil from my skin and the continual rubbing against the "end" of the handgrip.

Have found that because of the way I hold my grips it just seems to happen, however the one paid of QUASI gloves I have owned have been great, but still had signed of the same thing happening. Unfortunately because some lovely student decided he wanted some of my stuff more than I did I never got a chance to find out how far down it did wear.

I just wore a small hole in a pair of Held gloves. First finger left hand where the kangaroo skin constantly rubs on the clutch lever. It took four years so I'm not unhappy, and I do have other gloves.

The noise of the guys walking around above my head replacing my roof reminds me that this might not be a good time to lash out on new gloves...

LOL no you werent you brought some Tecknics.

Im not storming off, but I can see through you like a pane of glass, I got your intentions from the start, you generally take any opportunity to bag QMOTO as usual as if its a hobbie, as said before if you want process you need to see me.
Remember these where free to you
Remember these where samples

Carver youre a plonker

i did say that they were free!
and i do believe thanking you!
and if they were any brand apart from yours you would be bagging them too

so ditto on the glass theory.

i was only asking why they had a hole in them there!

Can I get some freebie quasi gloves? I promise to crash test them real well in the bucket circuit and if I have any questions or complaints I will PM you and not put it on the forum...

LOL it's worth a crack Nigel!

Hang on a moment. In Quasi's defence they were prototypes/samples that didn't make the grade - for whatever reason Quasi decided they weren't good enough to bear the logo. So he gave them to you.

I think you need to ask the question of the manufacturer that wanted Quasi's business rather then Quasi who decided the gloves weren't good enough.

Maybe the reason he didn't go with them was that they wear out too fast when you toss off in them - a point that seems to have been well proven in this instance at least.

This gives me renewed faith in Quasi's brand since he doesn't accept this kind of crap into his product lines.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - Quasi's products are great and are good value for money. However I still have difficulty with his general approach to people.

I'm not dissing quasi's stuff, I dont own any of his gear but i know a lot of people who do and they all love it.

But wouldn't he make it clear, at the start of the thread, that the reason he decided not to follow on with that model was because of the quality?

Then there would of been no argument in the first place.

Oh and in my opinion, they look burnt, you sure you didn't sit them near something hot as hell or something? lol.

[wbks]

Yea they do look burnt. Maybe he accidentally put them on his pipes or something... Conspiracy

quasi gave these to me to test, because they were too small for him (small hands small...)

testing over

i have never had any of his gear that was any good.

well, they have never been near heat as far as i can remember.
on closer inspection the forefinger on the first glove appears to be falling to bits.
the leather seems to be coming apart as if it was layered.

within 2 weeks, the tips of these gloves had discolored and gone stiff
