DAKINE Cross X Mountain Bike Gloves

September 5th, 2009 Sammy

dakine-cross-xThi past Wednesday I bought a new pair of mountain biking gloves, the DAKINE Cross X Bike Gloves. I was getting my gear ready for a ride and my old Fox Gloves turned up missing. On my way out I stopped at one of our local bike shops and more or less picked based on price and durability.

Unfortunately my only color choice was black and being a warm night I figured for sure the material was going to bleed and turn my hands black from persperation.. to my surprise this wasn’t the case.

After riding with my new DAKINE Cross X Bike Gloves… I love them. They fit really well… I really like the extra padding on the outer palm. The index and second fingers have a great sticky coding on them which is nice.. no slippage on the brake levers.

These gloves are a bit on the heavier side so I can see them being great gloves to ride in during the cooler months as we enter in to fall.  I would definitely want a different glove for summer riding, something thinner.

All-in-all a great mountain biking glove at a reasonable price around $30 from your local bike shop or find DAKINE Cross X Bike Glove on Amazon for about $24.00 or less.
