Warmest (non heated) waterproof gloves?
#2
I've finally given up. I need a pair (which I figured must be wind proof along with water proof in order to work) for those mornings when the temps are below freezing. I've spent quite a bit of money on different versions. Probably enough to actually buy heated gloves to begin with. Even then, not sure how well they'll do. My fingertips sometimes hurt pretty badly after riding highway speeds for 25 some odd miles while going to work.
I finally decided to stick with these, as much as I hate them. But they do work. Just a pain in the butt if you have to take a hand out of them to open a fogged up face shield.
Paid something like $19.95 for them two winters ago. Now I just keep them in the saddle bags during the winter.

I've tried a few and never found any that would keep the fingertips from getting half frozen. If you ride in the cold often enough get the heated ones. I finally did and they are freaking wonderful.

Make sure that you get the new model that doesn't have the suede like material for the fingers. That material is known to fray and come apart.
I sent them a picture of the bad glove and a copy of my receipt and they sent me the upgraded glove at no charge.

I just keep a couple of pairs of larger than normal gloves insulated in the tour pak. I also swear by the knit style thermal glove liners. A good pair will fit inside your favourite pair of leather gloves and make them twice as warm. I use them working outdoors all winter in sub zero temps. A good pair will cost up to $20 but it is worth it to keep a few dry pairs on hand.

Yeah, well I have insulated leather gloves, and Thermax liners. Fingertips still get painfully cold at 70 mph in sub-freezing temps.

I wear SealSkinz gloves. There not leather but do fairly well at keeping hands warm. They allow for a decent tactile feel of the grips and are completely waterproof. Unless you have heated ones your hands will likely get cold at some point regardless.

Ice fishing gloves...black sticky rubber outside, fleece lining, seamless...got mine in an Idaho hardware store last summer riding in the rain...awesome! Wish I'd found 'em years ago...

My latest purchase was Hugger waterproof leather gloves. I haven't ridden in the rain with them yet but they do seem to be warmer when I tried them at about 40 degrees.
