Recently bought some klim goretex gloves...they are quite thin but seem surprisingly warm with heated grips anyway.

Held Freezer. Very waterproof and very warm.
Came tops in a Ride magazine test I believe.

Not pretty but a set of muffs is the way ahead.

Rukka Apollo bought from Bikerland.de. Warm enough and good feel, but not sure if good enough in depths of winter.

+1 on the muffs, summer gloves with the benefit of better feel and dexterity. No good if you're a fashion victim

Get Toucano Muffs from valh from here then summer gloves.

If you insist on wearing gloves get Rukka Argosaurus, kin expensive but good.

Rukka.

If it really pisses down (which it doesn't do that often) get a set of Dainese over-gloves. These also work as an extra layer in really cold weather. Try the over-gloves on (over your waterproof gloves, natch) to ensure a good and tidy fit. I have used mine for years.

The trick with any waterproof glove, is to make sure the inner lining does not pull away as you take the glove off. So be careful! If it comes away, it can be a bitch to get your probably damp / wet pinkies back in. If this happens, one by one insert the clutch or front brake handle down each finger and thumb on both gloves, jiggling it around to push the lining near enough back into place. Obviously, don't do it so hard that you rip the lining or the glove.... It happens!

And don't do it whilst riding.

And remove your hand guards first.

And don't do that whilst riding either.

100%.

Even the best 'waterproof' gloves get sticky inside, and then become almost impossible to put back on when you take them off to refuel.

I tried many types of so called waterproof gloves, but a combination of leaks, dye running, them turning inside out when removing etc etc just got stupid....oh and the cold Wet outer layers plus wind chill= frigid fingers and dangerous riding
Tucano (or similar) muffs cured that, even if they look naff.....toasty and 100% waterproof, furry inside, wear summer gloves underneath with the heated grips on low and that's plenty normally.....if it gets well below freezing, use silk liners or thinsulate under your summer gloves (still have full feel on controls) and turn up the grips to '2'.......

Oh, and get a shytebag as well

I fitted my TU muffs & shytebag recently. Ridden a few times since in the rain and remained dry. Mind you, my rides home now take longer cus every fucka comes upto me and asks me about the shytebag etc.

I've just bought some Rukka Argosaurus gloves. Saved just under £100 by buying from FC Moto.

Fixed for accuracy. No charge.

Didn't try them on, I just ordered my normal size. Infinity sold me a Rukka suit last month, so I didn't feel too guilty getting the gloves from Germany.

I went for the BMW Atlantis. Good fit, inner cuff works well with my Rukka suit and the've been 100% waterproof so far
Worth a look IMHO
