I am currently researching weatherproof/rain uninsulated motorcycle gloves for summer riding. I figured the best resource is the folks on our forum. If you have a recommendation please share them.

I'm pretty happy with them. I would make sure you try them on somewhere...if you can.

michaelcl1970...do these gloves breathe or do your hands sweat after riding for a while?
varyder, which gloves are you referring too?
Thanks again! |

They take up NO room in my luggage, require NO maintenance - and they do the job. You can find them anywhere rain-gear is sold.

Been using them for more years than I can remember. On my 3rd set now. I have never seen rain proof gloves that let your hands breathe AND keeps them dry. Let us know what you finally wind up with. Just curious. |

| After trying several gloves and slip ons that kept the rain out well, I realized wet fingers are better than breathless gym sock treatment they gave my hands. In warm weather I just ride on with my smx10 gloves and enjoy the cool rain. The mesh dries in minutes when out of the rain. If its cold out I roll with the gerbings heated gloves. Rain proof and warm. Good luck |

Breathable yet waterproof. Very comfortable as well as having some protections for if you go down. |

| I bought a pair of fleece gloves years ago at Laconia. They were $12 back then. Cabala's has some by Remington for $15. I don't care if my hands get wet I want to maintain my grip and stop the sting of the raindrops.
I know someone that wears dish washing gloves. Yeah he's cheap. |
