Waterproof gloves - do the exist?

Pokerface

Can anyone recommend a TRULY waterproof cycling glove? I've read review after review and have yet to find one that actually keeps water out on a rainy day.

So - do waterproof cycling gloves really exist!?

Thanks for any advice!

I have a pair of 2008 Specialized Radiance gloves. Have found them to be totally wind and water proof, but also breathable so your hands don't get too sweaty.

For road cycling, anything that is waterproof just isn't going to breathable enough. I just go for the warm and damp approach. Fleece gloves are ideal for warmer days, the Mike Dyason winter training glove is great for colder days.

how about waterproof for this time of year rather than mid winter. i have the endura tundra gloves for winter and they are waterproof but far too warm for now.

Waitrose do some tough rubber gloves in black at £1.69 which i plan to us over normal lightweight fingered gloves next time it rains hard. they pack down quite small too and with the addition of a reflective sticker on the back will almost look the part too. longer sleeves to go under jacket will also help. maybe sweaty but at least there's a full barrier between you and the cold rain which does take away a lot of heat from your extremities
