The most essential component I was looking for in a glove was knuckle protection. Most proper winter gloves sub-£100 mark do not feature decent enough protection. These gloves do, with a hardened knuckle area that although is un-tested, gives reassurance.

I have tested these gloves during the winter months and found them to be supremely comfortable, completely water-proof and so warm they rendered my heated grips practically useless. The lining is thick, with a 'prima-loft' lining. I'm no material buff, but this is some sort of magicery going on!

I have not had to re-waterproof these gloves at all during the winter, unlike my textile kit which is a testament to its durability. Water simply beads on contact and runs off straight away.

In any case, I have only two gripes about these gloves;

The first being that with these gloves on, you look like you have Neanderthal hands, they're simply larger gloves but look a bit odd.
The second is the lettering on the index finger has fallen off. BERING has now become NG.

To be honest, I'm clutching at straws there, as at this price and this sort of value for money - it's hard to fault these gloves.

I purchased these gloves from Biker's Division Nailsea for £25 on promotional discount. Give Chris a ring on 01275 853232, check if they're still on promotion. If not, they're still great value for money!
