Just want waterproof gloves not looking for a winter padded glove..
Was kinda set on the [url= http://singletrackworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/review-sealskinz-dragon-eye-mtb-gloves/ ]Sealskinz Dragon eye[/url] but they sound like they suck up the moisture even if they don't let it in, then there the dubiousness of neoprene gloves from [url= http://singletrackworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/review-ion-neo-waterproof-bike-gloves/ ]ION Neo[/url].
Anyone got any real life experiences of either or recommendations? Or can locate the mythical Gore Bike GTX 1 Gloves

I use Sealskins - roadie version and been superb in all conditions. Though to be fair Devon is not too chilly. Buy a size up and get some thermal liners...

I have a couple of pairs of Sealskinz, they do tend to suck up. Only one pair are a decent warmth in colder weather.

My new theory, which I have not tested yet, is to try some work gloves designed for cold store use.

Something like these: [url= http://www.safetygloves.co.uk/ejendals-tegera-517-insulated-precision-work-gloves.html ]Link[/url]
