661 RAJI GLOVES
BikeRadar verdict
"Minimal faff, maximum style and comfort. We love ’em for everything from cross-country to downhill"
Seen adorning so many top riders, the Raji glove has become a bit of a legend in terms of style and fit. It’s all about simplicity, style and comfort.
The back is ultra thin and breathable mesh - unchanged from previous versions. Rubberised 661 logos replace the previous screen printed logos and have ridges that create an optical illusion when you move your hand.
The thin, tactile palm gives great bar feel and the one-piece synthetic leather padding between thumb and forefinger and onto the palm is burlier than before. Improved stitching adds to durability.
The fit is still excellent and the cuff is nice and tight. All doubts about it feeling less comfy because of the added features were blown away after our first ride. It looks like it’s gonna be another good year for the Raji.

User review of 661 RAJI GLOVES
I would not reccomend buying these gloves for long term use. I have used these once a month for dirt jump and downhill and there are all ready holes and rips appearing. if you are in to aggresive riding do not bother with these gloves.

User review of 661 RAJI GLOVES
Decent gloves for XC riding, but the grip detail on thne fingers is starting to wear off after about 3 months, which isn't too wonderful. Cool for the summer and give decent grip though.

Terrible gloves bought them and 2 rides later the stiching is coming away and the palm fabric looks like it is about to wear through.
