PRODUCT: EVS Torque Gloves
APPLICATION: Paw protection
OPTIONS: Colors: Black, grey/white, red/grey, grey/yellow
PRICE: $32

KEY FEATURES:
-Leather inside the thumb on both gloves for added durability
-Neoprene padding on knuckles for increased protection
-Velcro closure on wrist
-Minimal padding on palms
-TPR logo patches on index fingers

WHAT WE LIKED:
-Compared to other gloves, these EVS Torque gloves offer a lot of protection from roost
-The design is clean
-Durable construction

WHAT WE DIDN’T LIKE:
-While EVS claims this glove is designed with less bulk to it, we still found it very bulky
-The leather patch on the thumb bunches up while riding, making it feel as if the grip is very thick
-It seems as if there is a lot to this glove that isn’t needed. For example: The leather padding on thumbs, rubber EVS logo tab on the side of the glove, etc.

WHAT WE REALLY THINK: If you are looking for a glove that will keep you safe from roost better than a simple slip-on style glove, pick up a pair of the EVS Torque gloves. The padding on top will no doubt keep your digits safe, and the durable construction will last through numerous motos or rides at your local track. If you prefer a glove without a bunch of frills and padding, though, perhaps you should look elsewhere.
