- my share of the winter glove report.
-
- I bought the Difi Gortex gloves back in December, and yesterday was
- the first time I rode in the rain with it. While my hand were warm
- when I was riding, and it felt perfectly dry, when I got home, I
- found out the gloves were weighing much much heavier since all the
- leather had soaked up so much water, but the inside, I tought was
- dry (thanks to the Gortex lining under the leather I guess)
-
- BUT, this morning, when I grabbed my gloves, it was still soaking
- wet (I had left it out in my room) and when I put my hand inside,
- it was a bit moist, and for sure not dry.
-
- well, I paid something like 55 bucks for these, its pretty warm and
- enough lining to keep me warm (at least in ba winter I guess), I guess
- it won't keep my hand completely dry. :(
