Meh. I just get plain, unlined leather ones that don't claim to be waterproof to avoid disappointment. Used in conjunction with heated grips if it gets cooler.
I was actually looking at some of Helds offerings the other day. Look good and comfy. The trouble is sizing. My current weise summer gloves are apparently 4XL. Now I know I'm a size 8 glove because I have to get surgical gloves for work so I don't know how that works.
As such, I reckon buying online is a no-no. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

If budget is not a consideration, then the Rukka Argosaurus will fit the bill perfectly. My brother is on his second pair and says they are outstanding (if costing mad dollah).

I've been looking recently at gloves and checked out these and these. I was thinking about getting the second option as they look better and I've already got some winter gloves with the cuff on them. Not sure though. |

I have a pair of those, and they are very nice.
However, they are a bit warm already and we aren't into full-on summer. I have a pair of non-waterproof kevlar-lined leather gloves for summer (Helstons), even they were a bit warm last year and I'm considering looking for some perforated ones.
If it looks like heavy rain (or at night when it's chilly) then I wear waterproof ones.
Summer is a bit of a pain for the right gear - at least in winter you just have to put on a load of layers and some waterproofs and you know you'll be fine. I pretty much wear the same every day. In summer you can cook or freeze, get soaked by sweat or soaked by rain, and constantly have to think about what to wear. |

I have zillions of gloves. I've ended wearing Halvarssons Newman gloves all (British) summer and winter.
It has something called outlast that keeps both the cold and the warmth out.

Furygan Fit-Rs are my only glove at the moment. I've been wearing them since September. They're great. A bit cold and wet in winter, but mint in the summer. Still in surprisingly good condition too. ____________________ My Flickr |

It was perfect for me, my thumb and pinky have a little room to grow, but not much though. Just measured the palm circumfrence and got a Large. |

Hi Guys,
My name is Ishan Lee and I am a post-graduate student at the University of Leeds. I am conducting a research on factors affecting consumer's buying behaviour of motorcycling gear in India and in the UK.
As a fellow motorcyclist, I was keen on studying the differences in these two markets. Please help by completing this questionnaire, which will take approximately 5 minutes to complete. All the information provided will be treated confidentially and used only for the academic purposes. Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.
