Alpinestars GP Plus gloves

I have the GP Techs...

And personally, I'd rather have different gloves. I needed some full gauntlets, and I found em used on Craigslist, brand new almost, with the tag still on them. I tried em for like 10sec and decided they were good enough for the price. $100 for brand new $275+ gloves. Well after actually wearing and riding in them, I don't like em that much. The thing I don't like most is the hard plastic wrap-around for your wrist/over jacket. It's a bitch to take on and off while at a trackday. And it took like SEVERAL hours of riding in them to break them in.

Hopefully you're Plus' will offer a little more comfort in the long run.
