... for my birthday.Yep, thats right, I'm sick of the gloves I have and want a new pair for my birthday. Only I dont know the first thing about gloves!
The ones I have keep my hands fairly warm, but if I have my undergloves on I cant feel shit from either the front brake or the clutch.
The gloves in question are RST Net Race gloves. Can anyone suggest a slightly less beefy and constricting glove with better ventilation? Does anyone know of any gloves that are meant to be really really good and fair on the pocket?
I'll spend up to about £45 quid, maybe a bit more... Knowing me I'll probably buy something overpriced, but damnit I will try and stick to about £45
What? I have to treat myself on my birthday
Thanks guys,

I'm getting a pair of 3 finger HG Pathan gloves for Christmas. Not much help if your birthday is before then, but I'll let you know if they're any good or not. I expect I'll end up with heated grips and homemade bar muffs eventually with my poor circulation. Undergloves often just seem to make my hands feel colder.
My leather gloves seemed colder than the textile ones, the leather being more padded and somewhat more expensive. Complete waterproofness is essential.  ____________________ I must not be a troll...
