First of all let me say this. They are not waterproof! They may be shower proof, but I have just returned from my dealer to have my bike serviced and it rained all the way there and back. Water has leaked in at the finger tips and so the tips of my fingers are wet. That aside they are good. A good fit and long enough to be able to tuck the cuff of your jacket in. They are not leather, so should dry out quite quickly and they have some decent hard knuckle protection. For the price, £30 they are pretty good. I bought them for winter use, but I now doubt they will be up to that if it gets very cold or very wet.

I bought a pair early last year & I've found mine to be totally waterproof! I pull the elasticated cuff of my oversuit over the wrist portion of the glove so that water dripping down the sleeve can't sip down in to the gauntlet. Oh, and I've been out in monsoon like rain storms in them, plenty of times....

They're my standard choice for cold winter wear (yes it does go down to freezing point here for a few weeks a year

) and all in all I'm impressed. I try & remove them very carefully so I don't pull the linings out with my fingers!
