More comfy than the A* GP Plus I had before.

I was searching for a good winter gloves, I came across this two:
Dainese Ergotour Gore-tex
Rev'it! Borealis GTX gloves

both with hard armour at scaphoid, fingers and knuckles, not too short and with a safe secure lace on the wrist (no protection though..) . Can't decide which one... Do you have other suggestion? I need something with thinsulate or some thermal insert, and definitely hard armour.

I just got the Alpinestarsa Tech Road GTX (Goretex).

From Infinity Motorcycles. They're fantastic. Comfortable, waterproof (with a little wiper blade on left thumb) and very warm. Nice thermal layer inside, with 'easy in/out'. Very much 'winter gloves' though.

My everyday gloves are Alpinestars SP8.

You can pick those Racer R Safe gloves up on Amazon for < £90 a pair - they're soft but very well armoured. Got them for summer riding and love them.

edit: Prices gone up since i bought mine but still only a shade over £100 which still isn't bad.

I've been through a set of GP pluses in about 8000 miles before the seams started splitting. Good gloves though, crash well too.

Think so, bought them last year, same ones that Zarco and Rabat wear in Moto2.

I'm on the A* 365s and like them. They're a good compromise between summer and winter gloves. I'd buy them again. You'll need heated grips or muffs when it gets below 10c.

IMO They piss all over the RST winter gloves.

Nope.

They look and feel fancy, but of all the gloves i've owned they were by far the most expensive, quickest to become uncomfortable and then completely break.

For lots of miles on the road they seemed absolute rubbish and they're very much summer-only gloves; theres a lot of better often multi-seasonal gloves out there in my opinion.

I've been using Spada Enforcer since March.

They seem pretty good to me.

Got the 2012 version of the AStars GP Pro and rate them very highly.

Can wear them pretty much all day long without them getting uncomfortable (as long as I remove the ring on my finger, as it's quite a chunky ring and a bit too loose).

Protection is brilliant on them, and reassuring just knowing you've got all that hard plastic knuckles and wrist protection, plus the webbed fingers to reduce the chance of snapping fingers back.

They're pretty breathable too, so no sweaty hands, but it does mean your hands get very cold if the temperature is low... if you're riding in less than about 10-15 degrees air temp it gets heated-grips-on-max kinda cold.
