need glove for winter 35F

ideally something that isn't battery heated. Doesn't necessarily have to be goretex/waterproof but I wouldn't shun it if it had that feature ready, set, go!

For general cold, I like my Olympia gloves.

For really cold, I really like the knock off hippo hands I put over my handlebars. Makes for a nice pocket of still air around my fingers and keeps my hands somewhat warm.

If you have the power, maybe a Gerbing glove or Powerlet glove liner?

Headed grips and a proper gloves is what I have and I've ridden with temperatures in the single digits, hands never got cold.

Thinsulate, Gortex and leather is your best friends when choosing winter gloves.

You absolutely can not beat something like this:

http://www.twistedthrottle.com/oxfor...or-motorcycles

As NevadaWolf has said, they are awesome. Wind is your enemy when you start getting that cold. Gloves are important, not going to deny that, but these things are simply amazing! They'll extend the usable range of your current gloves much, much farther than a pricey/electric set of gloves.

I used mine below 32F. Above 40F I can get away with using just these: http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/t...e-ii-mt-gloves

The built in rain cover is awesome for rain and sleet/snow.

Whoa, those are cool! How well does the outer liner repel water?

Apparently I'm just a big ole wuss cause anything under about 40F and I have to put on the heated jacket liner and heated gloves.

Best money I ever spent in regards to comfort on the bike.

I know people like to tout how little they "need" to be able to ride in the cold but it's really nice to be comfortable while riding in the cold.

Good ol' cold temps. Think I just put my liner in my jacket and wear my norm. Small ride to work so I don't freeze riding highway for a half hour.

I have leather insulated MC gloves, I have Snowmobile gloves, and then I have KLIM insulated gloves, under 45 the KLIM comes out and keeps me warm until I will no longer ride.

So I picked up the rev'it alaska gtx gloves. I will probably also get the handlebar muffs as they look like a great product and I like warm hands as well!


Back to summer guys! Carry on

very well! I've ridden through some pretty intense rain with these and my hands never got wet. The problem is to get your hands into the gloves dry, as it's nearly impossible to put wet hands into these gloves. I have a pair of silk liners to help with this. It is also quite easy to put the rain covers on while wearing the gloves.

I like my Cortech Scarab gloves for commuting at those temps, but if your ride is going to be longer than about 30 minutes, you might want to add an additional liner.
