Winter Gloves

[motormike]

What are you using for warmer gloves?

I rode in yesterday in 45 degree weather and was chilly.  I saw some that I think will do the trick.  Cortech Winter Scarab with Thinsulate insulation.

Held Warm and Dry, FTW.

I have the Cortech's and they are not as warm as i expected.

When it comes to warm gloves you can't beat Gerbings.  (heat is good)

With my heated grips, I don't need my heated gloves anymore. Firstgear in XL size. I'll sell 'em cheap if someone needs 'em.

no bulk vs bulk.  Feel vs insulation.

How do those pads on the lower palm feel on the hand grip? Do they get in the way? What temp do you think they're good for?

I don't notice any issues with pads on the grips.  I use them all winter in conjunction with heated grips - they are good for whatever I'm good for (which is usually more than 20-30 degrees).  The one issue is that they made my hands smell bad often last winter and if my hand sweats inside, then the liner won't always dry out before the next day unless I bring them inside the house.

Seems that heated grips are the true answer to this problem.

or Warm and Safe heated glove liners.

I have the Cortech Scarabs. They're good for cool weather, but suck when it's really cold. The last few mornings it's been in the upper 30s here, and my hands are very cold by the time I get to work.

I;ve had the Spada WP gloves but the new ones I bought last year-the lining kept coming out. So i've now got a pair of Rukkas. Want Gerbings though.

Rev'it Tempest into the upper 40's

Gerbings T5 gloves below that.

I have two different weight wool liner gloves from Ibex that I use in both gloves depending on the temp, but I always wear a liner in my gerbings to avoid any hot spots directly on my skin.

Those look interesting, but expensive.  I assume they are nice and last a long time.

I should have stated I am not interested in electric gloves.  I'm planning on changing bikes in the Spring.  I also probably won't be riding in temps in the 30's as that usually means snow or ice is not far away.

My main gloves are Cortech Injector gauntlet glove that are okay.  They were purchased on a closeout at Sport Bike Track Gear, or whatever that website is called.

I still think the Cortech Winter Scarab gloves have to be significantly warmer than what I currently use.  I like the idea of Held summer and spring/fall gloves but that is a serious investment.

Yes, compared to the Injectors the Scarabs will be warmer. I'm usually good in mine until about mid 40s. My hands will be cool, but they won't too bad. Below that and my hands start to get cold. I can use them down into the 30s, but my hands are going to be freezing within a few minutes.

I have a pair of Tourmaster Winter Elite, I think I paid $99 for mine. They are a little bulky, but keep my hands very warm and are comfortable. Didn't need breaking in at all, soft from the start.

Having tried numerous options over the years I've found the Roadgear Ultra to be the warmest and most comfortable winter gloves that still offer good feel.

I regularly get emails from these guys with promotional discounts from 10-25%.  I have another pair of gloves from them and a pair of boots.  Good stuff.

Just checked out their boots - oddly limited size range - men's 9–10.    (Sorry, I know we're talkin' gloves here.)
