My info on Gerbings does not come from their website. It comes from 4 winters commuting 105 miles a day into Washington DC. The Gerbings did a great job of heating my palms but the outside of my hands would take a beating. So far (1 1/2 years), I'd rate the Warmnsafe about the Gerbings.

Please remember, this is my "opinion"....

Had an wreck back in the early 80's sorta messed up my right hand a bit (2 finger's curled and unable to get into most gloves) Best setup I've found is a set of Hippo hands cover's (on an off in just a couple of minutes) and heated grips, Heat Demons are great and look good on the bike. Heated grips are really nice in the early spring and late fall also I ride alot in the winter where at 4:30 am it's in the 20's and 30's, and 30 miles each way, this setup works so well I wish there were Hippo feet covers lol! They are a bit on the ulgy side though, but for me anyway they work well

Nothing like electrics but if you don't want to spend the money take a look at these.

You will find nothing better the the Gerbing heated gloves,
+1,000.

The Gerbings did a great job of heating my palms but the outside of my hands would take a beating.
Those gloves need to go back to Gerbing. Great customer service, they'll take care of you. I had a minor issue with a pair of the Classics which could have been easily repaired. Gerbing replaced both gloves with a new pair.

Anyone here know of or had a brand of Gloves that are only lined on the top of the fingers, and just leather on the palm/underside of the hands? I just find some of the lined gloves too thick.

Those look pretty good... I will consider them..

Also in response to members recommending Gerber Gloves etc. It is not about the money, it's about having to plug them into 12 volts and be tethered to the bike..

About as far as we go north is Georgia in the winter time so I don't need heated gloves that "Plug in"..

Looking for gloves that are warm but not bulky.. There out there..!!!

Got an early Xmas present on November 21 with an electric Warm and Safe jacket liner and Grebings G3 gloves. Took the scoot for a ride the following day to test them out. Went out for 2 hours with the temps about 35. Only had the thermostat about half way. My hands and core were very comfy. Works well!!

I don't work there but IMO they have some good prices on gloves, etc. Some of their gloves run small so hope you have store in your area. P.S. They have 100% no hastle satisfaction guarantee.
