Hello!
After riding all winter in these gloves, I feel obliged to let everyone know just how good they are...
i) They're extremely water resistant! On a ride from London to Edinburgh in the pouring rain, it was after about 300miles that I started to have a little seepage down the wrist into my palm... This was soon sorted in a dodgy service station's toilet block with a hand dryer!
ii) They're completely wind resistant up to about (an indicated) 90mph... unfortunately haven't tested them past this as yet... CBR125's aren't made to go beyond!!
iii) They're comfortable and durable! The Thininsulate lining is perfect, the only ripped seem is on the velcro size adjuster thingy which was bitten off by my dog after a weekend away! This is after an off, quad biking at an off-roading weekend!
iv) They're cheap! £'s wise we're talking £35ish... We're talking pennies to save your digits... well worth it! (Sorry you lot across the pond, haven't checked price over your side!)
In Summary) They are by far, the best winter gloves I have ever purchased/used... but for heaven's sake, don't turn the lining inside out in an attempt to dry them after a wash... you'll never get the bleeders back in again!
Roll on the Summer!! :thumbup:
