Have to say my experience of Grenade gloves is that they look sick but fell to bits fairly easily.I'd imagine the outerwear should hold up better though as at least some of the money they robbed off people for sh*t gloves should have went into R+ D.

Well i might be in the minority in this particular conversation (my friend) but i think you will find i am factually corect in my synopsis of grenade gloves! They look awesome but are built to last 5mins!!!

Only advice but feel free to go with the look! I just hope as said above they put some of the money they robbed of people for gloves into R+D!!!

Never had a problem with 5 different pairs of Grenade's over 3 seasons.
The leather ones are very well made and p*ssed all over my old Leather Burton gloves which were useless.

People should think about what a pipe glove is - a glove used for spring warm weather riding.

My Grenade pipe gloves get wet in the dome, but out on the hill when I don't pick up my board as much they're fine.

Not the best arguement on the durability of Grenade gloves.

No arguement from me, just wanted to pass on my experience and make sure the quality is better than the gloves i have had in the past.....

Sounds like it is and the stuff does look good so go for it!

hi guys
Hey Speedy, would be interested to know what gloves you wear? As i happen to know which companies manufacture in the same factory as Grenade. You would be surprised...
They improve every year, started off as a mad bunch of shredders making gloves for fun, now it is a business,so quality is important.

I'll hunt them out when i get home and let you know, they were 2 seasons back but only worn for 2 weeks max as i bought them late and bust my arm last year so couldn't ride.

Put them on to go rding in sept and the inners came out then a week back putting them on for a shred in the dome the wrist strap came clean off in my hand......

Hope the quality has got better as the designs rock.

Can anyone give me a clue as to the sizing of grenade pants? I'm about a 31 waist and 31 leg but usually wear impact shorts and occasionally knee pads. Medium the way to go for a fairly (But not MC Hammer style) baggy fit?
