Looking for some new gloves for the commute this winter.

It's only a 10 min ride, and I only do it 3 times a week usually but in order to try to keep that up through the winter months I reckon I should actually get some gloves rather than just use my usual summer MTB gloves or my non riding winter ones.

Any decent bargains out there?

100% Brisker if its a short journey.

They are not waterproof if that is a requirement.

Aldi of course, many will argue they're not the best gloves in the world and they're right but for a 10 minute commute they're spot on.

Have a gander on the Planet X website, the gloves are cheap as chips and for the price, pretty decent quality. I've had a few pairs from them which I bought years ago and there still wearing well and look like new after many washes, if it's just a budget pair of commuting gloves,you can't go wrong.

For a 10min commute, anything that looks vaguely insulated and cheap will do nicely.
I had some for £7 out of Tesco a couple of years ago.

As above, anything glove shaped would do. I normally wear some kind of grippy woolly gloves unless it's well below freezing.

I've found ski gloves best if it's particularly Baltic
