Decent dexterity winter gloves

[Hugo Stiglitz]

Yesterday in the freezing fog I took off my winter Mechanix gloves. They were just too padded/allowed my hands to 'wander' a smidge on the grips through the thin layers. They were warm...but gave me no 'feel'.

That's key. I can easily buy Aldi warn gloves for warmth! But I can't find gloves that are thin, fitted yet warm. I hate neoprene style gloves too.

Help. Anything revolutionary on the market?

It'll be for mountain biking primarily.

I've walked/run/cycled thousands of miles in these. Best gloves I've ever had.

I have a pair of these Decathlon gloves that are a reasonable compromise between keeping you warm and being able to feel the controls properly. They are not as good as thinner gloves, so I use them approx below 5C only. Also great VFM, like most Decathlon gear.

I love my sealskinz - really impressed by them and keeping your hands dry keeps them warm.

They also have some deals on sportpursuit as at full price they are quite costly!!

Try wearing a pair of silk glove liners under your normal gloves, they only cost about £7 on Amazon

Fox Fire Defend for me into my 3rd winter of riding and trying different gloves

Very warm, snug fit. I use these for MTB but will use for cold road riding too. This weekend when people were spewing about cold fingers in the damp fog these were toasty. Really pleased with these

Yet to try in heavy rain sorry but they appear to repel water

Also tried (I'm same as you re. big warm gloves or neoprene)

100% Brisker (movement fine, didnt do it for me in the wet, st quality)
100% Hydromatic (these are actually ok for movement on mtb despite being a little bulky, warm in the wet. Dont like them for road use)
Giant Chill XL (Very warm, mine are too big)
Castelli Perfetto (used these twice I think, useless)

I've various others but they are for summer use

I've been using DeFeet Dura so far (like S100). Good for me down to 3 degrees for a couple of hours. They do get a little damp on the outside (and with the added runny nose) but have kept my hands warm and dry. Clearly not waterproof

DeFeet ordered! I can always pop a liner in too.
