Gore's OK to 1C then Merino inners and if it gets even colder Belstaff waxed cotton mitts. I don't like cold hands.
Shall we start the winter shoe thread off now????????

Just bought a pair of Aldi £4.99 specials. Looks like a real bargain, although the word "BIKING" written across the back in reflective letters is a bit of an embarassment!

That guy has enormous hands
I have some Gore GTX gloves I use when it's really cold / wet - totally waterproof. Also use them for skiing when it's not that cold (but thin for skiing in early season).
I just got a pair of Rapha winter gloves which are breathable softshell with very few seams. Coupled with a pair of thin polypropalene liners they should keep me toasty.
I've always gone for non-waterproof 2-piece gloves. I'm often the one with the warmest hands in winter rain because I can wring out the liners and start again.
I go for standard winter gloves any brand, with silk liners and. Most important thing for me is that they have a high cuff so that my wrists don't get cold. Warm arms and wrists is the key for me.
as mentioned core sorted (icebreaker)
I had some Fox Antifreeze and they were good down to about -2, but I found them a bit lacking below that. The Velco also came apart, so I took them back in the spring, got a full refund so will try something else this season! Have some Altura Thermolites which are brilliant for days like today where it was 3 degrees at the start of the ride.
Bar Mitts beat everything I've tried previously
