onesea Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 OK Out today and I stayed mainly dry in the rain...My boots leaked (not to much of a concern my feet stayed warm...My gloves filled up! They are waterproof, the problem I put them inside my jacket I fill my sleeves with water. If I put them over the top even when moving water works its way down and my gloves start filling up...If there a known solution? Quote
Mr Fro Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Stay at home?Edit for genius:My great grandma used to put plastic bags over her shoes and head when she went out in the rain. You could do the same with your gloves. Quote
onesea Posted October 25, 2015 Author Posted October 25, 2015 Stay at home? Seriously there is no better solution .PS If thats the case some one must know a good way to dry VERY wet gloves... Quote
Guest Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 There are always solutions.. the cheapest is probably adding muffs to your handlebars for the winter, that way the gloves wont be out in the rain at all.. and your cuffs should be pretty well protected too. In fact.. good muffs plus heated grips will mean you'll probably never need to wear winter gloves.. or waterproof gloves again. take the muffs off in the spring and consider upgrading your gear. the premium makers have come up with effective ideas on keeping dry... but these generally cost.
