Need recommendations for winter gloves
As I discovered on monday morning ( 25* ) my current cheapo gloves don't keep my hands warm.
Any recommendations for a good cold weather glove? Armored would be a plus. Thanks Jeff |

Quick Fix til you find some. Wearing a set of latex or nitrile gloves under yours greatly increases their heat retention without adding bulk.
Sorry I don't have a recommendation, I wear my track gauntlets when it's cold.

 So I don't actually know how great they work, maybe some of the northern folks will chime in in a bit.

though not a subsatute for winter gloves... Knox makes "cold killer" glove liners... they're wind proof.
http://www.planet-knox.com/coldkillers.htm I've thought about them several times... be nice for road trips where you might have a cold morning but warm in the afternoon... and you save weight by just carry'n these liners rather than heavier gear. |

~~~~~ I checked out the Timax, a bit out of my budget right now. I'll also check out heated grips too. I'll need to see how much my alternator puts out. Thanks  Jeff Quote:
