Anyone recommend some track mitts. Had a couple of pairs of the specialized 'pro' or somesuch. Not a huge fan of the curious padding plus they didn't last. Anyone tried the Giro leather ones? Worth the premium? How about the assos ones?
 
Was it the body geometry ones you had? I quite like mine. Other than that Gore had a rather lovely set of retro inspired mitts. Do you suffer from numb hands/wrist problems etc.
 
The gore ones

I have a set of campagnolo ones, and they're lovely and comfy.

And most importantly, they have 'campagnolo' (written in classic script) across the knuckle in reflective matter.

Joking aside, they are very comfy and the snot wipe is just the right size.
 
Never had an issue with numb hands. Bought the specialized ones because I'd always had specialized mitts since back in the day. The body geometry padding is perhaps a solution for me to a problem which doesn't exist.

Gore looks good.
 
The Giro Lusso mitts are great - all leather, retro styling, good 'back of the hand tan' potential. There are cheaper mitts than the £40 you have to pay but these are good quality, comfortable and, I hope, durable.
