I was just telling Steve I can wear them in any weather, except rain, which is fine because I found the perfect rain gloves at the same place.<br /><br />Millers Surplus, Army Surplus Store in Tucson, AZ.<br /><br />These are kidskin leather on the outside and a soft sheepskin on the inside. They are great for warm weather and cold weather. I'm surprised they aren't hot in the warm weather, but they seem great. Steve even borrowed them once! <br /><br />They have wide fingers, but they are a bit long too. I have very fat stubby hands so I've only found really stretchy gloves ever fit.<br /><br />Sash<br /><a href="http://www.sashmouth.com" rel="nofollow">Sash - The Rude Biker Chick</a><br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/MsMenifeeValley" rel="nofollow">See Sash Videos!</a><br />Sash Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11030587181417666338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13520267.post-14398021267032713252015-05-19T15:07:52.439-05:002015-05-19T15:07:52.439-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Greg Prosmushkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06469085569109130005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13520267.post-87014957678567443822015-04-23T08:09:10.235-05:002015-04-23T08:09:10.235-05:00Trobairitz - Hmm...

Last Fall I thought I had ...Lucky I feel your pain! Last Fall I thought I had found glove nirvana, they were everything I was looking for and they were supposed to be waterproof - *not. I also have trouble finding glove that fit, there is a weird thing with womens gloves they all fit weird like the long skinnied alien fingers. OY! So after much humming and hawing I plunked down $100 walked away with Olympia (Not) waterproof gloves and went on my merry way. I was riding a novice traffic course and it was torrentially raining, and of course the gloves ended up being water logged, my hands cold and 7 hours later sore. So I made due and was going to buy some water proofer. One day 2 weeks ago on my walk up from our basement parking to the elevator to my office I dropped the left glove, someone picked it up and didn't turn it in to anyone. I went around the entire building and the glove was gone, its like those same long skinny fingered aliens decided they wanted their bloody non waterproof glove back, but only decided to take the left one. So no I am on the hunt again for a pair of gloves.

Mens extra small will usually work but then can even be too big and the fingers aren't usually long enough on womens. Don't get me started on how big the gauntlets are for wrist width......Trobairitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453398807198746434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13520267.post-61722068460779903252015-04-22T08:03:26.005-05:002015-04-22T08:03:26.005-05:00Red - I haven't yet, but I'll be sure to c...Red - I haven't yet, but I'll be sure to check them out.

I want to know if those Roper gloves are any good. In the meantime, I can advise that Furygan gloves are generally a disappointment.
