drkbishop Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I got these from Ebay a few months ago, £17I was a bit sceptical at first, but they have been brilliant, been out in all the recent rain, and still have bone dry handshttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Thermal-Water ... omIViMQMOAHad a pair of weiss before that that the shop claimed were waterproof, cost me about 70 quid, and fell apart after about 6 months, and weren't waterproof at all!

onesea Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 For me it was not the gloves leaking but water coming back down the outside of my jacket. So a double cuff was essential and has worked for me so far... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried inside I have tried outside and latest gloves have solved the problem...Dianese and Richa both have a type with double cuffs, they are not the easiest to put on but do keep your hands dry...
