Hah! I remember having that glove tan...my wife asked me why my fingers were all discoloured. I told her I met a number of dirty women along the (td) route and I needed a wash. Her dad thought it was amusing. 1 fer 2 wasn't bad.

That was me. ESI grips are like a bar of soap to Glacier Gloves. Practically unusable on anything technical :|

Used ESIs for a bit but no more; they are a bit better than cheap foam grips, but they don't last long and the silicon lifeline grips I just got from Wiggle appear to be at least as good at less than half the price.

I also found the Extra Long ESIs for Jones bars where way too long for a comfortable cockpit setup.
