Title: Awesome cold & wet weather gloves...
Post by: Spck31 on May 26, 2012, 05:16:30 AM
Just to share with people who had the same cold hand issues and peoples who ride in wet & cold conditions.
At the beginning of the season i bought Alpinestars WR-3 Gore-tex gloves to add more comfort in the soon & late season rides. My hand became cold really easy and when my hand are cold they are numb too and it'S pain in the ass to ride at this time. So those awesome glove keep my hand dry and hot even under shower condition.
It is really worth the highly cost i pay for (179$CAN), it's why i recommend this product. I use a small size, for my women hands it fit perfect! So next fall i will enjoy colorful cold days ride Yea!!! [Dolph]

I've tried a couple of cold-weather gloves and my hands always feel sort of "disconnected" from the controls. How are these for control feel?

Nice - that's cold enough! similar temps here, typical low 20F (done teens before, the R1100RS make cold a little easier).
Add some barkbusters, very helpful to knock some of the wind (& rain!) down.

The gloves look nice - I'll keep em in mind (got some insulated Olympia's w/ GoreTex that work ok but I don't love).
