Just been cleaning my kit after yesterday's ride and discovered my brand new Endura Dexter gloves (first ride) had fallen apart all the way up the seam by the thumb, all the stitching had come apart :evil: .

Going to take them back to my LBS tomorrow, anyone else had any problems with Endura gloves? I like the gloves but am not sure whether to get a replacement pair and put it down to a faulty glove or to go for another brand :? .

I've bought a new bike....ouch - result

    I've had the Dexters for about a month and wear them just about every day and the palm pads have started to wear through already. Not impressed. It looked like they would be quite durable which was part of the reason for buying them.

    Troylee XC's are worth a look, well made and fairly hard wearing.

    Cheers

    Took them back to my LBS today, didn't have the same size in stock but have said they'll ring me when they get them in at the end of the week so I'm fairly happy with their response. I quite like the gloves so I'm going to give them another chance, if the second pair fall to bits then I'll be looking elsewhere.
