Blue car-wash gloves from Halfords £2.99 last about 2 - 3 weeks. I use these throughout the year, when it goes cold I put some thermal wollen gloves inside.

I found all the other thermal gloves fell apart far too soon considering how costly they were.

What about glovs for trad?  I do not mind the cold but my finger tips go dead so could do with keeping them warm.

I have used these for years.
www.seton.co.uk/setoneurope/catalog/0/20/100007-1%20200112-2%20310349-3.html

I buy 10 pairs at a time and the pack will last for ages. I always have a few pairs on the go at any one time, I am then sure of having dry ones every day.
I have a pair of cushioned soled walking socks, very warm and comfy, but would I wear them every day of the winter? Yuk! It's the same with gloves. I like to be able to wash and change them frequently.

Heavy duty rubber gloves, black ones. With a pair of glove liners underneath when it`s really cold.

Go to the sealskins website, you can print out a template that you fold round your hand, that will tell you the size.

Mot scuba gloves work on the principle that they trap a very small layer of water between the skin and glove and this stays warm.

But with that said..you can get dry gloves but this is a different plate of chips ...

Cheers
