Got these yesterday... really nice gloves! Waterproof, very, very warm.... to warm right now :eek: Inside the gauntlet is a nylon type gauntlet that comes out that you can sinch up around your sleeve to keep water from rolling down into the glove... and a nylon cover that comes out of a zipper compartment on that gauntlet that slips over your glove, has contact points on it... very cool! :cool:

Padding over al of your knuckles and the top of your hand... reflective patches on the outside... nice!

My wife is getting real :mad: about Mr. :ups1: bringing me stuff and not her... :eek:

I have the old model of these that I bought in 1995 for $120. They were call called "Grand Tour Elites" at the time. I still wear them daily in the winter. Kevlar, Hippora, Thinsulate, leather, Scotchlite, and rain covers. Hard to beat.
The new ones are less expensive.

How cold have you ridden with the gloves? I've got the Lee Parks winter gloves, very expensive, but not as good as I hoped for below 40 degrees.

I currently ride with Napa 40 gram thinsulate gloves -- and I find they are acceptable down into the low 40's. However just a couple of degrees futher and into the 30's. my hands get coldeven with cotton liners

and I want something warmer

After seeing the post, I ordered a pair for cold weather. They are great! Coldest I've tried has been about 33 degrees, but nice and toasty warm. They are more bulky than the Lee Parks, but much better for weather in the 30's. Great fit, features, and reasonable price at Newenough.

My current ranges: below 40 degrees, Tourmaster Winter Elite; 40-50 degrees or so, Lee Parks DeerSportsPCi; above 50 degrees, Lee Parks DeerTours (perforated leather).
