Weise Daytona gloves have been reviewed by Ultimate Motorcycling in America. This is how they started;
"Upon first glance at the SPS, I assumed the pieces of plastic would interfere with the motorcycle's controls. But these hardened bumps are placed in a position that doesn't affect the gripping of the throttle or clutch grips. I tested the Weise Daytona gloves on various bikes, and the SPS didn't inter, whether tucking on a sportbike, riding more upright on a sport tourer, or reaching for the sky on a cruiser with 15-inch ape hangers".
And this is their verdict; "The UltimateMotorCycling.com verdict: if you're searching for a short-cuff, comfortable glove that features the all-out protection of a full-gauntlet racing glove, check out Weise Daytona motorcycle glove. Just remember that if the temps are anywhere above 80 degrees, expect some sweaty palms".

Womenswear - Making the Weise Choice - London Bikers review
After the best part of 2 years off a bike to bake, deliver and raise daughter Lucy, Lou has recently taken delivery of a CBR250R and had the thankless task (as we all do periodically) of trying on clothes from a few years ago with the inevitable disappointment [reports LondonBiker.com]. I heard about Weise some years ago because BSB racer Dave Johnson wore a Weise one-piece leather suit for a couple of seasons, and as Editor I've had several releases sent through and most have tweaked my interest in this quietly impressive British company. Now we have had a chance to see their products close up and in action, so let's see what Lou made of them. Looking for a great quality jacket without breaking the bank? Then the £110 Gemma jacket from British manufacturer Weise is a great buy. The £90 Weise Papillion Trouser is what you would expect from a ladies motorcycle trouser. I like the fact that Weise has a range from 8 to 22 and I’m very supportive of manufacturers that cater for the size 14+. Weise has hit the nail on the head in terms of styling for this [Tatu] boot. I love them. They don’t look like typical bike boots; as a consequence they look great under jeans and over jeans. The Tatu has a cheeky raised heel so you don’t feel like a storm trooper in them and the fully textured sole looks more like something off a hiking boot. I love the way that Weise have added a really subtle detail on the outer ankle area, again very feminine but not in a Barbie-doll way.
