How many pairs of cycling gloves do you own?

Loads, not counted.....

I've worn my Motorcycle winter gloves home tonight, my fingertips nearly fell off this morning with my summer gloves on..

 

[Mrs M]

2 pairs of Steptoe gloves
2 pairs of mid weight gloves
1 pair of goretex winter gloves, (they are rubbish so borrow Mr M’s bargain winter gloves)

 

[Sillyoldman]

One pair of fingerless summer
One pair rain
One pair autumn
One pair winter
One pair very cold winter
One pair merino under gloves for rain/autum/winter combo.
yes I am a rapha fan old boy when it comes to gloves. But the correct gloves keeps my arthritis happier.

I know that this is a thread about pairs but has anybody got any divorced gloves? I can only find one silk liner glove.

Probably about 7 pairs, one singleton.

Far too many - possibly need to have a cull, some are rather worn.

Just one pair, 4 oZ wrote on them, Lonsdale, clumsy buggers they are too.

Many: fingerless, lightweight, waterproof, crab claw, liner and spares of some.

Only pair of note are electrically heated liner gloves (blazewear), a miracle cure for Raynauds which otherwise makes winter cycling an utter misery.

 

[Jenkins]

In use:
3 pairs of mitts
2 pairs of thermal acrylic gloves, worn under the mitts in winter (just a couple of £ each and cope with temps down to around freezing!)
I pair of Planet X Crab Hand gloves for flat bar use when it gets too cold for the thermals
I pair of Polaris winter gloves with 1 pair of Decathlon liner gloves worn together for drop bar use as above
Spares: At least one pair of each of the above

I keep finding bags of gloves (mitts, lightweight full-fingered and thick winter full-fingered) that I buy whenever Lidl has them on sale. I stick them away and forget about them until I find them again. I then vow not to buy any more and to remember about the stash I've rediscovered... and then I promptly forget all about them again.

Rinse and repeat...

@cyberknight might be interested in the heated liners?

 

[Bazzer]

In order of warmth;
Pair of fingerless
Pair of Aldi
Pair of woollen
Pair of lightly padded gloves
Pair of ski gloves

 

[BigMeatball]

2 pairs of gloves, none of which is cycling specific

- pair of fingerless gloves which are more like gym gloves (bought 10 years ago and never used at the gym)
- pair of everlast knitted gloves that I use also when I go running.

These will be on until Spring now!.

As someone comparatively new to cycling I'm learning as I go.
I never bothered with gloves until I fell of my Brompton on the way back from the pub and cut my hand.
Since then I have purchased some Specialised fingerless gloves in colours that match my bikes, and a pair of warm toasty ones from Decathlon.
My absolute favourites, and most comfortable though are the pair that I found lying on a bench in County Durham. 😉
