RST Pro Series Paragon 6 Heated CE Gloves - Black These gloves have a small battery pack in each that you charge up. They should then give about 5 hours heat before needing recharging. I found that you have to switch them off AND unplug the glove from the battery as soon as you've finished riding as otherwise there's some sort of current drain which flattens the battery and actually damages the cells. The first pair I had had to have new batteries as they went flat and wouldn't even hold half an hour's charge. Since having them replaced and making sure I unplug each time, they've been fine.
Richa Invader Gore-Tex Gloves - Black Great gloves for Summer riding with good fit and fully waterproof
Oxford Spartan Air Glove - Black / Grey I'm not one of these riders who in hot weather ride in shorts , tshirts and no gloves
I purchased these for my trip around Spain in temperatures over 30 degrees and are still comfortable
Held Air N Dry II Gore-Tex Gloves - Black The best of gloves. Have a look at the photo. My mk I s, over 10 years old and 50k miles. No rips, tears or poor stitches. They have been soaked and abused on many trips, but still waterproof. On my last trip the liner started to be a problem with wet hands, so the new pair are there for the wet and probably won't see a dry day until the old ones fully retire. The liner in the new pair feels even better and more secure. When it is too cold for these I really don't want to be on a bike and when it is hot, they are as cool as a pair of summer gloves. Tremendous gloves and worth the price. I go a size up just for a little bit more room, but my standard size also works for me.
Richa Invader Gore-Tex Gloves - Black Initially loved these gloves, fit well and comfortable. However first time wearing in the rain they leaked through completely. I have never had a gore-tex product perform this poorly. DO NOT BUY FOR WET WEATHER.
Richa Rock Evo Gloves - Black Perfect summer glove! Great protection, and fit really well. Highly recommend!
Reusch Stormrider Gloves - Grey I felt very comfortable with this gloves .
I ride for 90 min in wind and some rain and it didn't affect me.
