Chiba Gloves. My LBS just started stocking these and they seem pretty
awesome. Anyone own a pair and have opinions? I'm more looking for input
on durability as the last pair of gloves I bought (Fox) started falling
apart within weeks of purchase. They feel excellent.

TIA

Best pair of gloves I ever bought. I bought them four years ago and still
wear them several times a week. Wash them after every ride and use the
"other" pair for the next ride.

I've had a pair of their waterproof gloves for over a year now, seem pretty
good although they're double lined so have a tendancy to slip about a bit
when riding. Keep your hands amazingly warm and dry though.

Obsessive-compulsive?

Don't know about the gloves, but the title of this post keeps making me sing
that old Ton Loc song Cheeba Cheeba to myself.

Thanks for the input folks. Looks like they are as good as they look. I'll
be picking up a pair for this weekend's riding.

Late to the table with this, but WTF - I like the fit and feel of the three
pairs I've owned very much. However, they all very quickly fell apart at the
stitching and needed repair. I gave up on them in the end. HTH.
