      He went to a DSG showroom and they showed him a Waterproof iPhone Cover *Orange color* for 1k. Lol he bought it and was asking me whether I need the Black for my fone.

            Those are the cheapest local gloves available in market and completely useless.

            But yes it can save from sunlight.
            It can give a good feel to ourself of being safe but actually not.
            And it can make other aunty uncle say "Wow! Kid you are into racing?"
            Because they don't have knowledge about these items.

            Better stay away from these gloves

            Get something that can save you.
            Gloves will cost you minimum of 1-1.2k for the starting range.

                I can give you brand name and you have to look on their websites and other places for their available models as per your budget

                1. Cramster
                2. DSG
                3. Zeus
                4. Spartan ProGear
                And many more if you just google them out.


                Note : These numbers are totally random and don't think that I've compared them rank wise / quality / name or anything.

                      The pair of gloves is Probiker (not bad for beginner). The 'Fox' set is for stunt riding & unless you're into that I wouldn't recommend it - Its not a jacket fully but an armor instead. The knee guards do their job well.

                          The ebay ones are definitely junk, any idea where we can get the original ones online(or in Hyderabad)? Motorsport.com has the original ones for 1248, but shipping and taxes put together makes it close to 2.8k!

                            Probiker gloves are something like a cyclist's gloves. As funny as it sounds, I use a fake Probiker made Alpinestar gloves for my local commute, office etc. And if you ask me, for local jaunting it does it's job more than enough. But the day it comes for me to hit the highway, I use the leather gloves.

                            Textile rips easily when you take a fall, whereas leather resists abrasion quite well.

                            Genuine ones cost upwards for 4k for FOX stuff. Even fake A* as the new Vapor model so ditto as the real one, sold for a mere 1.5k. Man oh man! Fakes are flooded as they can be. But I'd suggest you go for the Vapor knee guards on the PlanetDSG for a genuine one. It's 3.4k but personally not a big fan of this particular design, but you can try them.

                            Or you can check for KNOX stuffs, and outdoortravelgear.com. They too are a tad costly.

                            Cheers!

                            Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
                            The girl said, 'NO!'


                            And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


                            THE END

                              True that, fakes are all over the place. The cheapest ones that I have found are the Thor Sector @ PerformanceRacing.in at 2.4k. Guess these will be originals ones as its from a reliable store. Had seen the Cramster Bionic ones and they were appealing at 1.8k, but when I tried it, was a really bad fit!

                              @B7ACKTHORN, @Sird, @xpranav - Thanks for all the gear related recommendations! I have picked up a DSG Nero and a DSG Revive for my needs! Will put up detailed pics soon...
