Vanson: Rocket Glove 
Vanson's Rocket glove is a thick and supple leather glove suitable for just about any type
of riding. Wear it for touring, sport riding or cruising - you decide. When the glove's
are on, they feel very protective due to their thick competition weight leather. With
double leather placed over the knuckles and palms there's added protection to boot. The
Medium length, slightly narrow, gauntlet slips over most riding jackets and closely
quickly and easily with the large zipper positioned atop the gauntlet.
We found the size designation
to be on the small side, but the gloves proportions are good. Our only complaint was the
fingers on our gloves were very narrow, which added to the painful break-in time. It
literally took hundreds of miles to break these paw protectors in. As Vanson claims, it
takes time to break these gloves in but they finally do become more comfortable. Based on
the quality of the leather and construction, you'll be wearing these gloves for a long
time to come.
