Default Gloves!

I have a pair of the H-D Perforated Full-Finger gloves in size large. I'm looking at some H-D gauntlet gloves for the winter riding season, and I'm wondering if any of you have a pair. Also, did you buy the samesize for the gauntlets as you did the regular-length gloves? Any help would be appreciated because I would like to order the correct size.

I have a pair of the HD Windshielder gauntlet gloves and they work great in cold weather. They come in the same size as other gloves you'd buy. If you wear a large, get these in a large.

When it get's real cold, I switch to the HD heated gloves.

Yeah to those. Also, go see a LEO friend's personal equipment catalogsand look at those brands of gauntlets with Kevlar. The Kevlar LEO glove is usually very supple and is extra protection if something bad happens.quote]ORIGINAL: petemac

I guess I'm just a *****. For me, ANY glove is cold at temperatures below 40 degrees; HD, gauntlet, Fox Creek, etc. In cold weather, even thick, insulated gloves don't keep my hands warm after an hour or so. I use a Gerbing G3 at temperatures below 45 degrees and stay plenty comfortable. Above that, I wear a pair of Fox Creek deer skins with outside stitches, ( the mark of a good pair of gloves) the most comfortable gloves you can buy, in my opinion.

I always try gloves on for size and fit before buying them.

For cold weather I have a pair of HD insulated gloves.

I also like the HD Windshielder gloves. Go to a dealer and try on the gloves and then order them if you can get them cheaper by ordering.

This is a fact. I have the HD guantlet gloves and they are not nearly as warm as my snowmobile gloves.
