Cold weather gloves

tommymac · 09-21-2009, 05:20 AM

Anyone have some good recommendations. I just need something for the cooler fall weather, when it gets colder the gerbings will come out. I had an old pair of tourmaster gloves but they never seemed to break in and were super stiff, but now they are several years old so I wanted to get a newer pair esp since i am doing a lot of longer commuting miles.

I have a pair of goretex lined Olympia's that are nice. They were also about $100

You wear X Large? I have a pair that I bought and only used a few times since they sucked in 20*-30 * weather. ( too many cuts in my fingers/hands and they get cool quickly)

$30 shipped. If you're interested, I'll take pics

I paid 70 for a pair of Joe Rockets last winter because that is what the store had in stock the day i needed them. I am very happy with em. I've ridden for a short stint in 1* weather and my hands were fine while I thought my legs were going to fall off from frostbite. They also kept my hands dry during a torrential downpour.

I have never found a pair of winter gloves that I like. They all feel like oven mits and I have trouble feathering the clutch when I can't feel it. I think this year I'm either going to go for silk liners or heated hand grips.

I got a set of Power Trip Dakota gloves. They are real nice. Even come with a wiper blade on thumb

I throw my JR Blaster 4.0 (size L) under a pair of snowmobile gloves and that works out fairly well if it's really cold.

I have Cortech Scarab Winter. Been drooling over A* Vega Drystar (I think)- I really don't like the idea of winter/wet weather gloves that are textile or don't have armor.

Hippo Hands like these on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Hippo...Q5fAccessories.

I've been using Hippo Hands for over 25 years. I wear my summer gloves underneath so I can feel the levers and throttle:
