Bikers Gear UK Winter Gloves
http://www.bikersgearuk.com/waterpro...-winter-gloves
I scored the last pair of these that Amazon had in stock for $19.00. I'm glad I did. The last few days have been brutal in the AM. So bad, in fact, that I had frost on the INSIDE of my helmet when I got to work yesterday.* Specifics Made in Australia Leather Thinsulate lined Waterproof Long cuff Impressions Fit very well Don't bunch up while on the grips My leather jacket sleeves fit well in the cuffs Keeps the fingers fairly warm on the ride to work when the temps are in the low twentys F. No chill at all above 30F. Too bad that tomorrow will be the last ride of the year. Snow predicted for Monday afternoon/evening. There is still early spring. *There is a fine line between 'hard core' and 'nuts'. I may have blurred that line this week.

What size did you buy? I often find that even XL gloves don't have long enough fingers for me, and I don't think my hands are that big.

I bought the large size, Weld. I have medium sausage fingers with large palms so gloves are a crap shoot for me. These fit better than most.
I was going to go with my tried and true method of lined leather chopper mitts with a polypro glove liner but at $20, I thought I'd take a chance.
