    Got so used to riding my 661 raji’s this summer that my warmer gloves felt enormous today and very uncomfortable. Endura dexter fwiw.

    What winter gloves are warm/windproof at elast/have a thin palm?

    Gill (the people that do sailing clothing) so a pair of winter ailing gloves that have a thin palm but a neoprene backing. Not waterproof in any way but warm and work well for me…

    I have the women’s version of these Decathlon gloves, and find them surprisingly warm, for a thin glove. Or do I mean surprisingly thin for a warm glove? The close-fitting cuff makes a big difference.

    How thin is thin, here? Fox Antifreeze come in 2 parts with an inner liner and outer shell, the outer worn by itself is still pretty damn warm (though not fully waterproof) so works well as a cold-weather, proper-riding glove. The palm is pittards leather, it’s a little thicker than a normal summer glove but certainly not bulky or lacking in feel.

    (in proper cold, you need the inner liners and they do bulk up a bit- still better than most winter gloves though.)

    They are expensive though and not massively longlived, but very good.

    The Sealskinz ones are pretty thin if you do what I did and cut out all the gel padding. They’re still massively irritating when they turn themselves inside-out though, so I won’t be recommending them.

    Fox antifreeze are good if its fricking cold 0 degrees.
    But I just use the liners under 661 raji’s

    Hmmmm how about a pair of thin gloves and a sewn on slab of neoprene on the back ? I feel a bodge coming on..

    Specialized Deflect are as warm as I’ve ever needed and the same palm thickness as my summer gore gloves
