Winter gloves

After a hand freezing in track mitts on Wednesday, I picked up a pair of these SealSkinz MTB winter gloves at my LBS:

Highly recommended! My hands were toasty warm this morning, despite the chill wind off the lough combined with nasty rain. No problem working the shifters, lights or brakes while wearing them either.

I am on the look out for a pair of decent winter gloves, so thanks for the thread. Do you think that these gloves will do the business when it gets reallycold?

when it gets proper cold I use lining gloves as well, they work a treat

@Gussio I think they might be a touch light for really deep cold, so I'm going to pick up a set of liner gloves today for extra comfyness just in case. I've used layers like that before and they keep your hands warm even in the snow.

FWIW, I was told the SealSkinz's lining stretches a bit after you've worn them for a while - bear that in mind when trying them on.
