Default Looking for 6 inch gauntlet winter gloves

I am looking for gauntlet gloves for winter where the gauntlets are like 6 inches long. Does anyone recommend any? I have searched the net for a while and there are too many choices and they are vague with no measurements.

Thanks

I got a pair from Fox Creek that are 4" to 6" long, plenty to cover the jacket sleeve opening. They are deerskin, thinsulate, and about $36.00. No complaints.

Check Ebay! Tons of gauntlet gloves! I found an HD pair and they were very warm! Of course, heated gloves would be your best bet. Next best thing, heated grips!

Good luck!

I have a set of the hd gauntlet gloves. they work ok, but my fingers still get cold. If I was buying today, I would go with a heated pair. One thing I did to break up the wind, and keep my fingers warm, was to add a pair of latex gloves under my winter gloves. Seems to work for me.

I just got a pair from Fox Creek and they fit well and are lined, haven't used them in real cold weather yet but they are too warm to wear if it's not. Good Luck.

I have the HD gauntlets and they work very well for me. I've ridden in temps down to 19 deg F and behind the fairing my hands have stayed warm...

Ah'd dearly love ta find another pair of fleece-lined gauntlets! Ah've got a pair ah've had fer over 30 years now, an' while they're still in good shape (ah've tried ta take care of 'em), ah know it's jest a matter of time. Besides - the youngest boy rides now, an' it'd be a neat Christmas present for him, too.

Fox Creek leathers. Quality leather/thinsulate makes a huge difference over most other gloves out there. The short unlined gloves are good to about50 degrees. Lined gauntlets down to about freezing.Heated grip wraps below that.
