These are a good pair of medium/heavyish weight gloves. They do run a bit small, but overall work well. I usually have these out on a ride of 25-40ish F type weather in moderate amount of rain. Below 25, especially on a downhill where it can get to as low as 16F, they don't provide enough warmth and at that point, I switch to heavier weight gloves. But that's why it's a good idea to have multiple pair of gloves for all types of riding weather!
I find it annoying when gloves don't come with a loop and hook in feature to keep them paired when tossing them around different gear bags, pockets, etc. Unfortunately, these are lacking that feature. I was expecting something a bit warmer but they do seem very waterproof and a good value for rainy commutes.
Was looking for a pair of winter riding gloves that would allow perspiration from my hands to escape through the glove membrane while riding. I live in North Florida. Winter riding is limited to temps above 35F. Description of these gloves and ratings from buyers indicated that they breathe well. On 2-3 hour rides in temps of 35-45F, my hands were soaked. Insulation from these temps was fine, but the goretex membrane did not move perspiration as advertised.
These run small and I had to return them. Ordered a large, which is normal size for me, and could barely get my hands in. I was disappointed, because these looked and felt like a good winter glove.
Ive been wearing these Gore gloves this winter in Boston and they are SUPERB ! Great wind-fighters and keep the cold out quite well. Great grips too !
Good bicycling gloves for high nineties or above.
