Giles's Yamaha SR500 Build…

[Graeme]

I'm a fan of the Bell Bullitt too. I'd advise trying one on first to make sure that it fits. I've got a weird skull that makes it difficult to find a lid that suits.

The Icon 1000 range might be worth a look for riding gear, but it tends to be a bit overstyled in a retro / Mad Max kind of way. They even do a pair of red gloves!

Urban Rider and Motolegends do some nice gear if you're after something that's more Hipster than Power Ranger. The Lee Parks deerskin gloves look interesting.

But don't go Full Knievel!!!

I use Geier gloves for riding - www.geiergloves.com
I have the 445 in natural elk for spring/summer/autumn and the 204 merino wool lined deerskin for winter. Geiers are great quality and sized like shoes rather than s/m/l
You can get them from Kevin Kaatz at www.texasgoodgloves.com - he is a truly awesome and helpful guy.

You probably read all about sizing already but apparently on those Bell Bullitts, it is quite strange by most accounts. Hope it works for your head.

How about making some Iron Heart gloves?

Since @Giles doesn't have enough boots, I figured he should get these from Lewis Leathers to go with his jacket!

I'm pretty sure that @Giles has his riding boots already sorted

Thanks for all your help guys…..

Grifter Co. USA has some good looking gloves - selvedge and leather, but that might hit too close to home…  That being the case, could you guys not build your own gloves?  I assume there would be a market...

But for quality gloves that I know are a proven design check out Aerostitch elk and deer skin gloves!

Those aerostitch gloves are made by geier.

@ArloVShop:

Doesn't H-San/Works.inc make some straight up motorcycle gear under the name Free Bee or am I behind on the times…?

[Giles]

He used to…

W&W Cycles (Europe) have very nice gloves from Geier and Raber in stock!

Any recommendations for a good pair of retro style gloves, preferably in a light tan colour?

Helmet is awesome and together with the J100, you rock G
