Daytona79 Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Hi guys what gloves do you guys use in the winter???I am doing a 50mile a day round trip commute and i am getting a bit pig sick of having hands like red blocks of ice when i get in or from work. I am using moto cross gloves with 2 pairs of thinsulate gloves underneath and they just arent cutting it now. Quote
Gerontious Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Not sexy.. but the best answer for cold hands and winter riding are handlebar muffs ideally twinned with heated grips. Quote
raesewell Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Richa Cold Protect have been voted number one winter gloves in several tests and polls. Quote
Arwen Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Heated grips are the answer. I am so missing mine Outlast liners help. As do glove that have a windproof layer in them. Quote
dynax Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 I bought some cheap Frank Thomas ones last week, not worn them yet still wearing my summer ones Quote
JackieOWheels Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Richa Cold Protect have been voted number one winter gloves in several tests and polls. I have these gloves and yes they do work quite well but if it's very very cold, you do feel cold fingertips after about an hours ride. Quote
bonio Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Richa Cold Protect have been voted number one winter gloves in several tests and polls. I have these gloves and yes they do work quite well but if it's very very cold, you do feel cold fingertips after about an hours ride. I have them too. Same result. But they're my warmest glove.Heated grips are awesome. I've got some heated inner gloves, but hardly ever had to use them. Quote
skyrider Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 you could try some bark busters, they will keep the blast off your hands i used to have some on my bike, but maybe not look that great on a race rep Quote
raesewell Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Barkbusters can be a bit expensive. Take a look at thesehttps://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/22mm-7-8-Handguards-Motorcycle-Hand-Guards-Universal-Protectors-Motorbike-Dark/392509677523?epid=859424249&hash=item5b63665fd3:g:n5sAAOSwwO9duoE2 Quote
skyrider Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 yes they should do the job of keeping your hands warmer Quote
James in Brum Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 I just rode wearing my ice climbing gloves and they are much better. Symond cascade I think. From decathlon. They are not quite as armoured as my bike gloves but. It that far off and bloomin warm. Quote

Gerontious Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Aerostich wool-lined gauntlets Not available in the UK. An American made brand. Quote
raesewell Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Maybe not available from a UK supplier, however that does not mean they are not available in the UK, Royal Mail, UPS and others do a good job of getting them to you (at a cost) Quote
Gerontious Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 Maybe not available from a UK supplier, however that does not mean they are not available in the UK, Royal Mail, UPS and others do a good job of getting them to you (at a cost) are you suggesting he should order these? Have you a pair? Are these worth taking a risk on?£210+ including delivery, duty and VAT. thats a big risk for a brand that's largely unknown in the UK.Just because you can order from the states doesn't mean that it's wise to do so.

Mr Fro Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 In my considerable experience of riding in miserable weather, the very best things to use to prevent your hands from getting cold, wet and chapped up are...Hand muffs.I've been riding 20 odd years and sadly only cottoned on to these a few years ago . I currently wear summer racer gloves all year round, wrist deep in muff. Quote
Guest Posted November 1, 2019 Posted November 1, 2019 £210+ including delivery, duty and VAT.£137.54 + £20 UK post depot tax. Quote
Daytona79 Posted November 4, 2019 Author Posted November 4, 2019 That price is a little bit above my budget at the moment. I have ordered some Richa cold protect ones. And once my bonus from work goes in at the end of the month i am gunna invest in some Oxford heated grips.The issue i have is 7-8 year ago me and the ex kept huskies, we rescued one who was an absolute nightmare. Long story made short me and the ex broke up a dog fight with 2 of our other dogs, the looney dog we rescued took a chunk out of my left hand very badly ie 2 surgerys and 60 stitches later. As a result the circulation in my left hand is absolute horrendous. Quote
Ian Frog Posted November 4, 2019 Posted November 4, 2019 Picked up a pair of Richa cold protects tonight and in general well impressed.Will let you know how they perform later !CheersIan Quote
