Hi can anyone remember the names of gloves from the 80's that had studded palms.
I had some back then, and even tho mine were the cheap ones. ..I really liked them.
Ta.

Don't think it was bike shops that sold them
Another type of leather wear/fetish shop maybe 😉

I worked in the trade then me most gloves had studs as already mentioned fieldsheer, frank Thomas, Reusch, you have to be careful as they can cause friction burns and scars far better to use medical gloves with copious lube

Good lord, ask a question about port timing or optimum squish and you get some fantastic scientific informed responses,
Get a question about leather and studded gloves and look what happens. 😣
I used to have a pair of Reusch Martin Wimmer (German 250 champ I think) gloves that were red/white speed block design and studded. Would love to find another pair now.

Powerline..anyone remember those.
Studded palm and "pretend" knuckle protection..
Amazing what you wear when giving for free..

Studded palm sounds dangerous...especially if you leave them on while spinning one out....  |

Cheers all.
Googled some of the above suggestions, not much turned up. And none of the names rang a bell with what I used to wear...I was cheap then mind.
All pervy suggestions. ..try sitting on your hands.
before typing.

I've got a pair, the second version with the padded knuckles and grey palms with red white and blue front . They're obviously old, there's a tear in the leather at the cuff due to aging. All studs are present and correct, supposedly there was asbestos behind the studs to stop you being burnt should you hit the deck and studs heated up. I did come off with an earlier pair and my hands were intact and unburnt. Anybody want them, they're probably a medium, size 8 .
