Winter gloves again

[remal]

sorry if this has been posted many time before. I am going to my local hein gericke to try on a few winter jackets and trousers. I will also be needing a pair of gloves.

recommendations please


was looking at something like:

ALPINESTARS Tech Road Gore Tex Glove
or
Jet Road Gore Tex Glove

I want something that will last me and stop my hands from falling of when it fecking cold but not lose the feel of summer gloves

Ta all

I've got two pairs of these... www.hein-gericke.com/uk/product_info.php/cPath/1_6/products_id/157

Used them all winter but need liners for colder weathers. Got a pair of L for normal and XL for cold with liners.

If I did it again I'd get a pair of those for when it's slightly warmer and a pair of their pathans because they're supposed to be warmer.

I got these the other day and can honestly say they are the warmest I've ever owned. Good feel to them as well as in use of controls.

Use summer gloves with inners until it gets v cold.

Another vote for the Pathan.

A bit wierd at first but very warm.

Racer Pluvio's are very good. Warm w/o being too bulky & pretty good for keeping water out as well.

Infity stock them - about £80.00

They size up big, so you defo need to try them on.

Do any of those keep your hands dry in torrential rain for any duration - and are they tucked inside / outside jacket?

Haven't found a good combination yet, as even if the gloves themselves are waterproof, the water eventually just drips down inside.

Mark, try Alpinestars Drystar gloves. They're barely any thicker than summer gloves but really warm and my hands didn't get at all wet when it was totally shitting it down.

Gloves inside jacket is a must in heavy rain. Or at least it is on a sports bike. Not sure if it would make things worse on a sit up & beg jobby.

Pathans are fine in torrential rain.

Put under jacket cuff to stop rain running down the sleeve.

Gloves inside jacket means air being forced up inside, which is no good on a one hour dual carriageway commute when it is below freezing. I've already tried that one.

Disagree me old china. Ride year round, over 20k per year mostly on motorways & as long as your jacket cuffs are adjustable, it's just a case of doing them up tight enough.

Ive got a pair of spada 2 finger jobbies and they work brilliantly

Maybe its just the combination of gloves / jackets that I have tried. Need some new gloves anyway!
