HD's Heated Gloves with Microwire™® heating technology - any good?
It's almost 100 and very humid out so I apologise for the heated glove post but I am looking to get a pair for this fall. I'm not interested in heated grips and these HD gloves say they have full heat coverage. Does anyone have a pair? Do they work well?

As everyone else has said; Gerbings makes the HD and I think the Gerbings is a bit nicer. I was able to pick mine up for a great price last year along with a heated liner atwww.grandprixmotorsports.com. If you check their site/sign up for their emails they have sales on this stuff

+1 on the Gerbing, it is the same product as the HD. I used mine last winter on a couple rides they work great and make for a comfortable ride on a cold day. If you are looking into the jacket liner I would recommend the dual thermostat.

Like everyone has stated, they are made by Gerbing, and they work very good. I don't know of anything extra that Gerbing offers that the HD branded ones don't offer, they both come with the exact same warranty, and last I checked the same options.
I would do some checking on both brands if I were you, because when I bought my last pair a few months back, I found the HD ones for less than I could find the Gerbing's for anywhere. For the jacket liner, (I have the jacket liner, not the vest liner) I found the HD branded one for about 75 dollars less than the Gerbing one.

Don't know where you live but if you want to extend your riding season Gerbings is the way to go. The downside of buying the HD brand is (from what I understand) if something goes wrong you have to take them back to the dealer you bought them from. I could be wrong there. I bought my gloves and foot liners, both HD from the dealer. Also bought my jacket liner from a dealer but they are Gerbings and should I have a problem I can get it taken care of either from the dealer or Gerbings. In short, you can't go wrong with the gear. I love it and sorry it took me so long to get the gear. The pants on the other hand are another story and nearly 300 bones but that may well be coming this winter.
