Hey, are those new?

Here is a great example of how a product's tone and color, on this Troy Lee Designs Air Glove, operate to fulfill the user's, a motocross or bicycle rider, needs. If we first analyze tone in this example, the glove from the top has a very light middle section that is bordered by darker tones, defining it's edges. I have always like white gloves because they look classy when they are clean, and a big part of riding is style. If a rider feels confident in the way they appear, it adds to their confidence when they ride and lets them feel more comfortable.The darker tones are patterned on the thumb and pinkie occupy the whole finger section, while the ring and index finger have the darker tones inset in the light middle section. The palm of the glove is completely dark, giving it the opposite look as the top. Having a dark palm is necessary on a riding glove because if it were light it would show all the dirt that is constantly being rubbed into it. I think that there is a great integration of the light tone of the strip that lines the inside of the fingers that directs the eye from it's beginning at the tip of the index finger and moves to the pit and back to the tip of each finger. When looking at color, I think the first way I would describe it would be like a fun house. The colors all have a soft feel, with their hues being complementary. These types of colors work well for a rider because they are going to do a couple of things, the first is not being too vibrant. There is a point that color can cross when being worn by a racer where it starts to talk a little bit louder then they can, which can be a bummer. These colors can be seen, but are not so bright that you would be seen in the dark. I think that the color of the red and blue shapes on the fingers work well because they break up the big white area where the fingers are and flow well with the direction of the hand.
