Joe Rocket Gear....

Joe Rocket Gear....
Poorly made. My gloves have minimal use on them...already the bottoms where I pull them on are shredded, and the finger tip on one is already un-stitched. I would have thought a pair of gloves that run $50ish would hold up.
Lesson learned. I think I'll go with ICON next.

Best gloves I have had thus far is A*, and I have tried, icon, power trip (made by JR), and Teknic.

Alpinestar seems to have a good reputation. Do you have any pro's/con's for Icon? Also, what sells you on A*?
Here is a linky to what I have. It's the updated version:

I'm surprised cause my leather Joe Rockets have held up nicely. I've had them over 2 full seasons, so they have thousands of miles on them and I have no complaints. I normally wear cheap fox or shift mx gloves for warm weather and only break out the JRs for cold mornings or nights.

I have the icon pursuit gloves. I love em. Have been good to me for a little over 1000 miles. Nice fit and comfy for long rides. I do wish they were a little bit longer going up my wrist though.
I also have the Joe rocket UFO 2.0 jacket. Love it also. Fits me nice and when i took my spill about a week ago back the jacket absorbed the energy well.

It also depends on what year gear model you have too. Cuz I know like Teknic for instance, has had lots of problems with stitching and seams coming apart. So they improved them. I have a Jacket and glove that I've been using for almost 2 years without any problems, and they're the same model look/design as the ones people were having problems with in the past.
I'm a bargain shopper, got my Teknic jacket for 125 and glove for 25. Still going strong.
