Can’t get used to winter gloves
Discussion
The title says it all really. This is my first winter commuting on the bike and I’m still using my summer gloves as I just can’t get used to my winter gloves.
I bought a pair of richa radar gloves and having worn them 5 or so times I actually hate the thought of getting on the bike.
I feel like they are restricting me in some way and don’t feel safe with them on.
I keep telling myself it’s because they’re bulkier than I’m used to, or that they’ll get better the more I use them but I’m still choosing the winter gloves and freezing my hands off.
Is this Normal and how it is with all winter gloves or is it just this glove that isn’t for me?

thanks for all the replies. Looks like muffs are the way to go for me. I have no concerns about looking daft, as long as I’m warm then who cares!
I’ve got a V-Strom so already have hand guards and they don’t make any difference to the wind chill, they should help keep the muffs from pressing on the levers though.
