I was pulling out my quad gear to go riding tomorrow. i was looking at my gloves and am still amazed after all this time of owning them. They are the best gloves I have ever owned. I've had a dozen pairs, but nothing I own fits or feels as good as the slipperys.

My dad picked up a pair for me on the discount rack at some ATV shop. They are 55% neoprine and fit sooooooooooo good. I've put 50 hours on them riding my quad and I beat the sh*t out of my gear. These things not only fit great, but they hold up!

If anyone is buying any gloves, I would suggest these. Normally, I just buy the cheapest thing at the shop because they all suck. I would gladly spend $35 on a pair of these gloves w/o question for my quads, wakeboarding or my ski. They just fit so d*mn good.

PS. I think they run large. My MX gloves from the quad shop in a small seam tight. These fit... like a glove... in a small.

just bought a pair of the new switch gloves.. they're pretty comfortable, but i ripped the stitching when i first put them on!! the palms of the glove are white... well they were white, now they look like crap. they still work really good though.

Mine are an older set. I hope their quality hasn't diminished.

I've treated mine very poorly. I clean them with a pressure washer some times and they are still stained with dirt.

No signs of wear except the palms looks like I took sand paper to them. Essentially... I did...

Slippery gloves are junk. I keep buying them because they are cheep and replace them every couple of months.
JetPilot gloves are a lot better, as well as some of the generic water ski brands sold in Dick's ans Sport's Authority.
Any white neoprene is going to look like s&*# after the first ride.

Anyway, I prefer the kevlar palm gloves with a 2-3mm neoprene depending on the temps. Just make sure you don't wipe your forehead or blow your nose while wearing the kevlar gloves, the stitches on those things hurt.

The quality of Slippery products has been steadily diminishing since about 2002.
On this note, if anyone has a 2004 Switch pants size 34 for sale (never used, bitches!), please let me know.

My matrix gloves didn't last long. My reforms are on their second season and still look and feel brand new. I ride 5-7 days a week from May thru November so they got plenty of use. I ride fresh water only, maybe this increases their longevity??

my matrix gloves fell apart quickly. My jet Pilot gloves lasted long, but still fell apart. I changed over to MX gloves, so far so good. best part... paid only $13 shipped from ebay.
 
I have had a couple pair of MX gloves and haven't had any better luck them than with slippery. But answer MX gloves are the worst. 3 weeks and the palm wore through.
