« on: October 01, 2007, 06:04:05 pm »
How many of you guys wear gloves for those winter mornings??
I personally have tried the Unger neoprene ones

I two have used the unger ones, they are to bulky, I keep meaning to go into a wind surfing shop as there gloves are alot thinner. I also found the unger ones made my hands colder unless I wet my hands before putting hands inside them.

so for last few years it been cold hands they get hardened to it  :(

I do mainly trad and use the unger ones with the green strap I wouldn,t do the job without them...a necessity for winter...us northerners are soft.

Omnipole gloves with washable liners are the best we have found. Tough. warm. comfortable and last. That's if you are WFP, otherwise they would be impossible!

I use the unger neoprene gloves myself but I don't think they are very good.  If they get a bit wet then they make my cloths really wet which can be a problem.  They also are not all that warm and they rip like crazy.  Mine only seem to last 3 or 4 months.  My friend tried the sealskin gloves and although they did last abit longer they were not very warm and they were not really as waterproof as you would think.

The Sealskinz ones are brilliant. Really warm, waterproof and are thin enough to use to do delicate jobs like adjusting taps, writing out cards etc.

You need the glove liners in really cold weather.

Argos sell those fishing gloves, not bad gloves but they bloody stink if you dont replace them often enough.
