Anyone have the link to a size chart or something? I recall having the link before, but have no idea where it is.

Cheers.

Indeed it is. In Alpinestarts I take a 'small' & in most others a medium.

I bought the new Alpinestars Drystar gloves for winter and they're ing ace. Barely any noticeable size difference between them and my SP2s, but a hell of a lot warmer and waterproof.

At a guess, I'd say go for a pair that are slightly bigger than your hands.

Small? Medium? ffs I need XL and my hands are not large. Good idea to get some slack so you can wear some thermal inners anyway.

I just got some Frank Thomas gloves today, see what they're like tomorrow. By the looks of things they're due a good test run! I really like my Alpinestar GP Pro's but they're getting just a little too cold now.

Got a neck thingy as well, not sure about it, think I might get a balaclava.

They have some two fingered gloves which they seem to think are good. I bought two sets of their winter gloves with knuckle protection... one in L and one in XL so I can wear the larger ones with liner gloves inside and the others when it's raining but warmer. Extravagant but I'm worth it.

Banana man?

Are you saying I look like a banana? Are you? Do you think I'm yellow? Do I look like a piece of fruit to you? Do I?

Anyway, gloves are okay, was a bit miffed that they leaked a little around the cuffs but it was very, very wet this morning and they are warm and comfy otherwise with decent abrasion protection. Overall 6/10, not bad.

Thermal neck thingy that can fit over chin and nose is superb!
