I got mine from www.getgeared.co.uk , they are Held gloves, and they are quite good but the thumb wipe is a bit rubbish. You can get little widgets that slot over your finger too, I think they are called Vee Wipes.

The Vee Wipe came highly recomended by the school I done both my cbt and das. Every instructor recomended them and had one.

on a similar note can anyone recommend a good treatment for anti fog/condensation for visors inside and out?

£4.99 seems a bit steep for a bit of rubber though to be fair.

Get one on your finger, it's generally longer than the thumb, and with a finger, you only get the finger in front of your face when you wipe... Thumbs Up

Pinlock - works perfectly even in very cold mornings.

Alternatively you may nick a wiper blade.

Fogcity

For those of us without pinlock visors and for all, from what i've heard (and seen) it works better than pinlock due to being "stuck" to your visor, As some pinlock inserts didn't seal all the way around and let condensation form in an annoying bubble right in front of your nose.

My Hein Gericke x-trafit gloves come with a rubber wiper works brilliantly.

Don't see why you couldn't chop a car wiper blade up and somehow "adhere/attach/sew" it to your thumb.
