Agreed - warm but bulky

Review by throw2k on 4/1/12

Took them out in drizzle today for 30 minutes. Waterproof? My hands were totally dry at the end of the ride. Warm? Yes. Finger squeegee is nice, build quality looks good. Gaunlets are long, but tucked easily inside my jacket.

Cons: bulky for sure, I felt a bit sketchy on the front brake as a result, just had to be extra careful. This may just be all heavily insulated cold weather gloves though.

Will they keep my hands warm & dry? Probably. But have to get used to the feel.

Warm, but bulky

Review by Tim on 2/24/12

Warm but bulky. Or bulky but warm. Anyway, they keep my hands warm but make operating clutch/brake slightly more difficult. Run small.

Best cold weather glove, but not quite as pictured

Review by Martin on 1/20/12

First, I have to say that this is the warmest motorcycle (or general purpose) glove I've ever owned. It's perfect for NYC winters, and it's half the price of an all-hide gauntlet. Leather is great but gore-tex is the way of the future for warm, weatherproof gear.

The glove fits a little snug... I am right between a S and an M and went with the small. Snug is warmer than loose, though, and a loose glove makes manipulating controls harder, so I made the right choice. As mentioned below, there is so much warm padding in this glove that it gets more flexible as you break it in. Nice curved fingers, abrasion reinforcement, and a squeegee make it clear that this is a motorcycle glove that happens to be very warm, not vice versa.

warmish

Review by Strapping Lad on 1/18/12

I bought these for "winters" in Las Vegas. Typically in the low 40s high 30s at night. It may be my tolerance (or lack of) to wind chill but I can still feel the cold air through the gloves and makes my hands pretty cold. I also went by the size chart and ordered a Large even though I ALWAYS wear an XL. Yep... the Large is a bit small for my fat palms, it restricts my hand movement, and they start to cramp up after a while. These issues are personal, but the glove itself is very well made and the inside liner is very cozy.

Great Gloves

Review by Great Gloves on 12/19/11

I bought these gloves for my husband for his birthday. He had a pair in the past and loved them. He settled for a pair of cold weather gloves from a Harley dealership and he immediately returned them because his hands were cold. He loves his new gloves - wouldn't stop raving about them. Even better, they were a lot less expensive than the Harley gloves. These keep his hands nice and warm. I'm thankful because my hubby can enjoy his ride and keep his focus on the crazy drivers instead of his cold hands and trying to work the gears. Regardless of the price, its worth every penny for a safe and happy rider.

cold weather glove

Review by gb on 10/11/11

Since the gloves have been backordered for a month and I don't have them, I can hardly review them.

I bet I would love these gloves if...

Review by Rocket Bob on 9/30/11

I bet I would love these gloves if they were in my possession. I ordered these gloves 3 weeks ago and they are still not here, better give them plenty of lead time or buy from another manufacturer.

Good Glove

Review by Josh Greenhill on 9/19/11

I've owned the same pair of these for several years now. I wore them on cold West Texas mornings on my 30-40 minute ride to class (17 degrees was the lower bound, I'm not going to say that it was warm and toasty, but I could still work the controls with ease). I now use them on the "shoulders" of the riding season in Southcentral Alaska. In my experience, the glove is very durable and is showing very little sign of wear after many thousands of miles. $57 for warm hands over many years.

Pros and cons

Review by Brian on 3/18/11

Bought these after a brutal mid-May trip up north last year. On that trip, the AirVantage Heated vest kept my torso warm while my Wickers undergarments and Sidi boots made mid-30's temps no problem while riding my FJR. Hands froze in leather gloves. That small body area controls a lot and my cold hands focused the ride on something besides the gorgeous countryside. I have looked for battery-powered heated gloves, but that technology isn't mature yet. These gloves do what they claim, but can be tight enough to restrict bloodflow at the fingertips when new.
Overall - glad I bought them. If you don't ride much, you may not like the fit, but if you have ever been in pain over the course of a cold, rainy 700 mile mid-May "fun ride" with constant temps lower than you set the thermostat in your fridge for, these gloves are the next best thing to heated gloves. Actually better, if your heated gloves aren't waterproof and the wet stuff is about... I will have these gloves in a side bag when crossing from Milwaukee to Seattle this May... bet I use 'em too.
