I will second Matts observations, I have had a pair for about 5 years, and they are still the warmest gloves I have ever owned

Thumbs up H.G. 3 finger gloves

HEAR HEAR!

Ive owned a pair for 2yrs now and i cant fault them, warm in the winter, but can get hot n sticky in warm weather. Can be a bit of a bugger if you want to gesticulate to someone who has cut you up on the road tho. Lol.

Yes that was the first thing I noticed... you have to give them the hand Italian style rather than just one or two fingers! I found myself slapping my head at people.... bit daft really.

I don't advocate road rage, but a friendly gesture or signal of intention is a good thing The w@nker sign also works in the Pathan (sp?) gloves , not as effective when directed at a female driver

I've had 2 pairs and I end up breaking the gortex membrane down in the left glove through repeated clutch action I guess. The right never fails. They're the best wet weather/winter gloves I've had, hence buying the second pair. They've got thin palms too so work well with heated grips. I've been wearing them as "wet" gloves for 5 years and will buy another pair if they wear out. Great bits of kit. " Live long and prosper" as Spock would say !

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
