So I know I am kind of early with this, but wanted to start looking now and get some peoples opinions on summer gloves. More specifically the Scorpion Vortex Air and Scorpion SGS MK II. I live in southeast VA so summer time riding can get upwards of 100F. I like the protection of the SGS MK II but am concerned it will be too hot. Meanwhile, the Vortex Air gloves look like they have good ventilation but don't have the palm sliders. Up to this point I have been using Mechanics gloves but they are beginning to show wear from the wind. My question is, does anyone have any experience with either of the Scorpion gloves in hot weather? Are palm sliders something to be super concerned with or no? My winter gloves have them, but it seems that doing a quick Google search finds a number of various opinions but most of which are geared towards track riders and not commuters.
