Gloves for single digits (temperature!)

[wheresthetorch]

Any recommendations for gloves for temperatures between about 4 and 10°? My hands were pretty chilly today, so I need something a little warmer.

They don't need to be waterproof or for sub-zero, as I'm too much of a wimp for that sort of thing.

Be great to know of any recommendations in the £20 - £30 bracket. Thanks. 😊

If they're for underwater though, I guess they aren't 'breathable' so my hands would get quite sweaty? (I know nothing about diving clobber.)

They look good - are they what you use on the bike?

Be careful with some of these. I bought some and they barely covered my wrists and the construction wasn’t that great. I use them for weight training when it’s single figures in the garage.

I was wearing Altura fleece gloves today. Stayed warm enough when wet, but not that wind proof. I packed a second pair in case they got completely soaked - and I guess my latex lab gloves in toolkit could have been used under fleece gloves if my hands got very wet and cold.

I have heavier “waterproof” gloves for winter. But they generally just get rather damp inside.

My one piece of advice is to get gloves with a long cuff that will keep wrists warm.

Generally I find keeping wrists, neck and feet warm is key for comfort on cold weather riding.

Yes, good down to zero. Also got a rather better pair with a longer, adjustable cuff but can't immediately remember the name of them.

If I want extra heat (which is often) I usually wear winter running gloves under what ever gloves I'm using. Today it was the winter running gloves under a pair of Ekoi winter gloves.

I have many pairs of gloves.

Assos winter gloves for the very low temperature, are the only ones that work for me.
