Don't kill me....

I was walking through the Nike Outlet the other day and they had wide receiver gloves on blowout for 15 bucks a pair. I almost bought a set just to try, but has anyone ever tried a glove like a WR glove that had the extra grip palm?

I would think they'd be too sticky. Just releasing your grip on the throttle may not be enough to shut it down if the grip is stuck to your glove.

I play flag football, and actually tried a pair of my reciever gloves during a Moto. My experience: bunch up at the Palm more than MX gloves. Also, ZERO finger padding/protection, if that's a concern

Hmm... I don't know much about football gloves, but it seems like most of the good MX gloves have a pre-formed shape that is naturally curved for gripping a bar.

In the past, I've had some cheap MX gloves that bunch up like you described.

Why would $15 for that glove stir your interest? How much do you pay for MX gloves?

Brandon was wearing them. And we all know how that turned out at his first race.

They are good if you intentionally want super thin lightweight.
Not for if you have soft hands lol
