Anyone got any recommendation for a thin waterproof glove - for when its wet, but not too cold? Been looking at SealSkinz Waterproof Ultra Fit Glove.

    I get on well with my Endura Dexters.Not really waterproof but still keep my hands warm even if they get wet,and more importantly not too thick.

    I have a pair of Endura Strikes and they only really make sense when it's baltic outside.
    Wear them in anything other than cold conditions and your hands will boil.

    I have had the sealskinz for about 3 weeks now, so far so good, fully waterproof and warm at the current temperatures.

    I have a pair of Altura Nightvision waterproof gloves & the outside material just gets saturated.

    I have a pair of £11 DHB windproof gloves from Wiggle & they are virtually waterproof, Im amazed

    Sealskinz Ultra-grip

    Not as bulky as the photos would suggest. I found the fit and grip to be excellent. 100% waterproof. The Hi-Viz colour is a little OTT but affords an extra safety element during winter commuting. However, I suspect they maybe a little too warm for temperatures higher than those we're currently experiencing.
