The Spartan Charge Glove Review........

[.Cheetah.]

So I got in on a great deal that Drummer Dave had on some Spartan Gloves a few weeks ago and couldnt wait to get them around the clip ons...... I just have 2 small hour long rides each with them but they've broke in enough to be able to tell how they should fit......... and if theyll be comfy or not.



The Design -I honestly think you could put them up against any high end glove out there and not tell any differences. Great looking Glove. On a cool night, they stopped the wind but the air ports actually worked and circulated it very well. I had full function of my whole hand and actually could even zip up my pocket. These are so hip that Railing is actually going to where these in his wedding.


The Protection - The armor is in all the right places without being to over the top. The bridge over the pinky finger is a nice added bonus. With the kevlar lining, knuckle and wrist protection, you cant ask for anything more. The wrist protection could stop a Danhor Panty attack if needed.


The Construction - After a few months of riding Id be able to give a little better info on how they are holding up, but from the overall look of the seems, I dont foresee any issues there. This would be the last pair of gloves Munky would ever have to buy.


The Fit - I usually wear a large in A-Stars and the medium fits great in the Spartan. The leather is some of the softest Ive felt, but still has the structure that lets you feel at ease. I have never had a gauntlet glove that I could put over my jacket sleeve end (because my long ass arms) so I always have to put my jacket sleeve over my gloves. These are built long enough were I dont have to do that. Then, with the extra tension strap, it holds them snug the entire time riding. The external seems are a must and Ill never buy another pair with them on the inside. Those alone make these the most comfortable glove Ive owned. You really get a great feel for the throttle and levers with them on. Ive never noticed not being able to feel much, but I guess I never put on a nice pair of gloves....... These have such a nice touch that these would ruin Hoosier's "stranger nights".



The Bad - I had to pay for them. The Good - It was a clearance sale

Thanks for the review. I have been looking at the Heroic gloves but would really like to keep my business local (with Drummer Dave) if possible.

Anyone have any reviews or comments about the Spartan suits?

I have a Spartan Suit and it rocks... and I think you'll find most people, on this forum, will agree.
