With little protection on the top and a thin bottom area with vent holes, you might ask why you would wear gloves at all. The answer is grip. You don't want to miss your grip because your hands start to get sweaty. If you don't want to rub your hands in the sand for grip, wearing gloves is the answer. It keeps your hands clean too if that's something you worry about. A little loop will help put them on. The index and middle fingers have a rubber patch which will work for Daniel Dhers, but don't have a function for brakeless riders like Mirra. Comfy, hell yeah.

You either wear gloves when you ride or you don't. There's no mix. If you're used to riding with them, you'll miss them if you did not pack them in your bag on the way to the riding session. DC has designed a pair of gloves with the help of their team riders. They feel pretty thick on the outside and I bet that helps keep your fingers warm when the weather gets colder in a few months. The palm side of the glove is skinny though for maximum feel of the grips. 
After doing a BMX 'zine for ten years (1987 - 1996) FATBMX made it on the internet. The year was 1998. Here to stay.
