On the topic of gloves...

How do you guys maintain your gloves? As a commuter i end up going through rain often enough that I had to deal with my gloves starting to smell pretty funky.

On top of that, the leather gloves never seem to last long. They dry up and begin to form holes and tears.

Gloves can get expensive.

How do you guys keep them in good shape over time?

I have the M1's and the Dyer Jacket, both are excellent. Bought them because of the same deal. Gloves are a little weird and have a flap extending from the palm where the extra padding is towards the arm, not sure why its there. The gloves are a little small and the fingers are a little long after 2 weeks of riding it had stretched a little, but still just a little tight, I ordered according to charts. Same thing with the jacket. Though I guess I'd rather it bee too tight than too loose. Would recommend both.

i already got the dyer hybrid jacket in black and red. really sweet jacket imho for its price. i got the mediums and they are ok, a little tight but its fine with me.

i ordered another set of brawler gloves medium and went ahead and ordered the dyer hybrid glove in white (large). im praying that the large is a little forgiving when wearing it. i have the medium brawler gloves now and really liked it except the stitches are starting to wear down.

has anyone had any experiences with the m1s? im thinking of buying one later but i wanted black ones in large but its not available.
