Boots and Gloves

[Nicksta]

Ok people... I, along with a lot of females have small feet and hands..... and i am about to upgrade my boots and gloves.... so i'm looking for any reccommendations you might have for brand/quality and fit... i'm in the USA so sourcing a product that is not in NZ is not hard.... my boot size is roughly a 37 and gloves are XS.... sports type gear that can handle a track day is what i'm looking for.. so opinions on brands and quality will be appreciated.... thanks (and rep) for your help in advance...

PM Quassi...or check out his web site, he will send his stuff over there!... ( i think) but his stuff is good.

[ajturbo]

[Nicksta]

Hey there Nick Spidi is pretty good gear and available everywhere it good quality Itie stuff

[Nicksta]

sidi/spidi seems to be the go... i'll check some out today...... fianlly got a day off to do some shopping

Why not check out Dainese stuff seeing that you should have the chance? It's hard to come by here in NZ but I've only heard very good stuff about it. Dunno if they make boots/gloves specifically for woman, they do have a line of leathers/jackets for woman though.

I love snow... when i'm skiing.. but not when i'm riding.. and i'm hanging out to do some of that.....
good thing is i picked up a tinted visor for my Shoei for $30.... yay for me!!

I havnt been able to find boots & gloves to fit me yet either. Got some nice boots but they are a little too big so I will give them to my daughter. Nicksta if you find anything over there could you please get a website or an email address so a few of us smaller ladies can get some too. I've had enough of being stuffed around here.

If a bike shop doesn't stock Spidi or hasn't even heard of Dainese then they can't exactly be a very productive shop... just say "I want what Rossi wears"... just make sure you are willing to pay your right arm for Dainese... and leg.... and left hand... and pritty much all your appedages

or you could check out Ebay, some damn good stuff on there, and a whole lot of FEMALE sized clothing i.e. leathers.
Yes you heard...actual Female leathers, etc. I LUV Ebay!!

Will post piccies of my new purchase WHEN it gets here...all things being good.

Hint: it is a brand that starts with D ends with e and hopefully will be landed here for less than $900 nz....and ...what for it....it even matches my bike, how bloody kitch is that?!
