Forward planning for my Wales bike trip in a couple of weeks. Obviously there will be rain at some point, it's more a case of how much than will it!

I ride in 1 piece leathers and will be taking a waterproof oversuit and boots. However, I've always wondered if waterproof overgloves are any good as there's nothing more annoying than soggy gloves! I understand they will sap 'feel' quite a lot but are they worth buying for the £20 they cost? If so, does anyone have any recommendations?

I bought some Spada "lobster claw" overgloves for my last trip to Italy. They made it as far as Geneva (about 4 hours of actual use) The Spidi ones look better quality but they ain't £20

I’ve been using the same Spada over gloves for some years… a great backup when I can’t be bothered to set the Keis heated gloves up. Great in dry cold too.

Thanks all! I've gone for the Spada ones. They will literally be a last resort but nice to know I have them if required.
