Hi folks,

Really been trying to find a pair of winter commuting gloves that come recommended. However, for every pair I find there are reviews that say they're not waterproof or that they don't keep your hands warm. I live in Glasgow so I need both.

I have a budget of £40. Can anyone recommend a good solid pair?

Thanks again.

I've never found any that are entirely waterproof, even if they claim to be.

When I was a kid and went out to play in the snow we used to put on Marigolds under our mittens to keep our hands dry.

This might not be the most useful post I've made today.

I've never found waterproof either .. .so I've gone for warm and wet .. .and cheap ... that way you can have a dry pair to put on for the journey home! I've tried various expensive ones and they just didn't live up to their claims.

Castelli Diluvio Gloves or similar.... Not the warmest but you could always wear a glove liner inside. Supposedly windproof and waterproof as well as its made from the same stuff as scuba divers suits are. Might get a little clammy inside.

I got my Sealskinz mittens in a sale and they are warm and waterproof... BUT if you don't tuck the ends up the sleeves of your waterproof jacket every time they come out (checking your watch or whatever), the rain will run down your arm into the glove and then it'll be warm, waterproof and pretty wet for the rest of the ride!

These will definitely keep your hands dry. But, you'll look like a smurf...

I have Altura Progel waterproof gloves (down to £35.99 at Evans).
They are my warm winter gloves, nice and cosy but not sweaty :heat:
Had Sealskinz before and found them nice and warm but had clammy hands :thumbsdown:
