Default Cold Weather Gloves

Anybody have a favorite pair of cold weather gloves? I have a pair of First Gear gloves that are not making my fingers happy.

Don't need heated gloves, the coldest I usually ride in is in the 30's. Every now and then a little cooler.

I have a pair of the HD Windshielder gaunlet gloves and they work great. Use them down to about 40 before I switch to the heated gloves.

+1 on gloves that have a windproof layer sandwiched in them... it makes all the diff. Yamaha also sells good windproof gauntlets that are very flexible... black and with no Yama logo on them.

This was one of the pairs I was looking at. Good to know.

Thought I would never say it,but you NEED electric gloves,just can't be beat.If it is 30 degrees it's a lot colder at 70 mph.

Lord knows how many I've tried and none work worth a darn. Broke down and bought the Gerbing G-3's. Pricey but my fingers are warm now. Have to spend more now because they get too hot, need a controller.

+1 on the Gerbings, 30 degrees is definitely cold enough for heated gloves.

+1 on the controller, it's the only way to go IMO.

I bought some gauntlet gloves from HD a few years ago and I like them a lot.
