New Gloves

[Muscle Bike Rider]

Anybody bought any new gloves recently for the winter? I'm after a pair myself to replace my spada enforcers which I've been quite happy with, was going to get another pair but thought I'd ask first if theres anything recomended which is warm / waterproof and not to bulky that are new out before parting with my cash. Not keen on the claw 3 fingered style really.

I bought a pair of Weise Montana & have been impressed so far - they do a heated version as well but way too expensive for me

Don't buy Frank Thomas Aqua Pore.

Heap of shit!! with regards keeping hands toasty.
Kangaroo leather, (which IS really nice) but they do not keep out the cold.

They keep out the wet but they are definitely not that warm.

Pretty disappointed in that pair actually as I paid about £50-60 squids for em and they looked like they would do the job.

Anyway, with them crossed off your list you only have about 999 pairs left to choose from

Recently bought some Richa Neon Waterproof gloves, mainly for commuting etc and can say that they've had a genuine waterproof-ness test this afternoon & evening
About 10-15 miles commuting / suburban riding in absolutely torrential rain, and my hands are still warm and toasty.

They don't have a great deal of impact protection, and they may not be thick enough for motorway speeds during winter temperatures, but they're very tactile, and relatively thin to be able to feel the controls, so I'm more than happy with them for city riding and commuting

Just bought myself a pair of alpinestars 365 gore tex for £129 just now. I needed replacements for my venerable Tech Roads which I've abused over 3 winters and 20k miles. So far, it's been very windproof even at motorway speeds at 2degC. I like it because it offers the feedback I desire from a glove. I hate thick, fleece lined gloves, which I found the new Tech Roads were. The 365 combines the weatherproofing of the OLD tech roads, with the comfort and feedback of the gp pros. Pricey but I love my GP pros and I love my tech roads.

i'm on my fourth set of alpinestars jet road goretex, well, haven't quite retired the third pair yet and got the fourth pair off ebay for £36, not bad for a glove with an £130 price tag, and used them every autumn/winter for the last 12 years

Yes I've just bought 3 pairs.

Hein Gericke Procton Glove, black £42.99

Hein Gericke Tour LT Leather GORE-TEX® X-TRAFIT™Glove, red-black £79.99

Alpinestars Jet Road Gore-Tex Glove Price varies, paid £79.99 delivered.

Proctons are just plain black leather. The Tour LT's are lightweight GoreTex and the Jet Roads are extreme cold GoreTex.

Well got another pair of spada enforcers, thanks for the link that worked out at £20 cheaper than retail, got the hi vis instead of black this time for a change. just got to bed them in now, old ones passed on to the son, their not leaking just a bit tatty after a few years use but he aint bothered as their warmer than his oxford winter gloves.

My Spada Enforcers are leaking after only 16 months. How long did yours last for?

I've recently bought some Dainese Jericho gloves and they are quite warm. Just my fingertips have been a bit cold on my left hand - that's with silk liners but without heated grips or muffs and it's been pretty cold. I havn't tried them in heavy rain as yet.
I found a review online that slated them but I can't see what they're talking about.
