Hestra has a reputation for making phenomenal (pricey) gloves. I have Dakine mittens, and they work pretty well.

I wrote a review on a pair:

I tried tons of different gloves, then I got quality leather Hestra's. Had those 8 years and they are like new.

Hestra. It took a while, but I finally spent the money on a pair of Hestras and I'll never ride anything else. They're excellent gloves. Pricey, but well worth the money. Mine only have two seasons on them and they still look brand new. I expect to get 7 years or more out of them.

Black diamond gloves are super nice. A little pricey though

Hestra and Cactus.

Cactus = indestructable, but so are Kinco's with some boot wax...

If you have the money to spend, Hestra's will be the best option. Take care of them and they will last a long time.

I'm exceptionally happy with my pair that is now on its third season and recently bought a pair for my wife to keep her hands warm on cold days.
