I got a set from them on TC's recommendation a year or so ago.  Had finally worn out an old pair of glove I just loved.  Thin deer skin that were sewn up for me at a Renaissance Fair a long time ago.  No bunching. Perfect length gauntlets.  Brass buttons on the gauntlets.  Just loved them.

After lots of year and lots of weather they finally gave out though.  The Fox Creek gloves are the nicest commercial product I found.  Perhaps not as perfect as my old ones.  But pretty darned good.

Fox Creek are nice gloves. Another alternative is to get some from hd-dude! I got a pair and love them. I think they were about $25-$30. Here is Jims Website where I got the gloves. They are thinsulated too! http://www.ljsgroup.net/catalog3.0.html

Here is a picture of them

Sean was looking at some winter gears.  I'd like to get a pair of heated ones for this year.   :)

I'm gonna take a close look at these. Great idea! HD Men's Battery Operated Heated Gloves. Make them in Women's too. Can't let Binx get cold! Prolly made by Gerbing, but Gerbing doesn't show Leather ones on their site, only Goretex. ;)

with the demise of Widder later this year, I am tossing my hat into the Exo2 line - they have the best reviews and are the only ones that can be powered by an external source...

They are just $$

Their gloves are $200 +

I already have the G3's, but they're the hard-wired gloves, and I don't use them. Tried once, but them wires are a real PIA. I threw em back in the bag and never used em. The battery operated ones seem like a good alternative to hard-wiring myself to the bike! Wonder how well they work though. ;)

Simple but PIA! Wire the pigtail to the battery is easy. But running the wires to the T'stat, then thru your sleeves and then plug the whole mess into the pigtail! Ugh! PIA!!! :nixweiss: :nixweiss: :nixweiss:
