Richa Arctic Gore-Tex Gloves - Black

Quick delivery from SBS as usual, gloves are good fit, comfortable and warm

Great gloves very comfy and fit well. In the depths of winter do need a liner and hot pouch to survive.

They are a good quality glove, used them in very heavy rain and they are waterproof. Only thing I would say is that if your hands are even slightly wet they are a bit of a struggle to put on.

The best gloves I have ever had

Feel really comfortable, my previous Richa gloves were getting a bit tired, not been caught out in the rain yet so can't comment on them be waterproof.

Very comfortable & water proof. Used from UK to Morocco and back with spare vented gloves for warm weather. Richa make excellent gloves.

I,ve now used these gloves for a month.
1.5 weeks commuting and 2.5 weeks on holiday France and Germany.
Various heat ranges from-3 to +16.
I forgot to turn my heated grips on more than once with these gloves because they are so warm.
By 0900 hrs I had to change into my summer motorcycle gloves as they would be too warm above 8 or 9°c.
Well worth buying if you ride in the cold as well.

Real world thoughts on the Richa Artic Gore-Tex gloves.

So far these gloves have lived up to my expectations of them. They are well made and fit well, I have wide hands but shortish fingers and to my surprise these fit very well. Some reports suggest they are bulky but I didn't find that and they allow full access to controls with ease. As to be expected with Gore-Tex they have been dry and the added visor wipe comes in handy in the rain. So far after a few weeks of use I've found them to be a good buy, I did think about electric gloves but these do the trick for my needs. The only slight downside is that I find the end of my fingers get a bit chilly after a while BUT to put that into context I ride to work and back every day I start at 16:00 and finish at 04:00 the trip to work is 16 miles dual carriage way and my return is via the back roads, all spirited rides in the rain and cold, I've ridden in heavy rain and at -4c and -8c over the last month so a bit of chilly finger tips is to be expected.

The Dunlop Mutants on my bike makes it fun going to work.

Just been for a run to try these out ,freezing day hands are nice and warm impressed. Not sure about waterproofing as not been in rain yet.Would consider getting one size bigger than your norm as there a snug fit

The seams on my 7-year-old Richa Arctic gloves - still waterproof! - had started to show signs of separating, so I decided to go for these as an upgrade.

As others have said, they're initially quite stiff, but they seem lighter (yet also seem marginally warmer) than the standard Arctics.

Stitching, hand-protection and the visor-wipe are good, and on its high-sensitivity setting, my TomTom Rider 550 touch-screen is usable while wearing them.

For me, they're a good fit, and have so far been warm enough for 45 minutes at about 5% without hand guards or heated grips. They're also 100% waterproof, having been tested in the recent wet weather. Based on their predecessors, I'm confident they'll last several years.

Gloves so far are excellent. Warm, comfortable, do keep the weather out. I have cold hands and commute 45 mins all year so need decent gloves. Normally I use thinner gloves with muffs but decided to change it up with larger gloves wand heated grips. The gloves are good as they allow feel and control but the outers good enough to keep out the chill. Ends of fingers a bit cold when sun zero but not unduly so. Id definitely buy them again depending on how they wear over time and whether they stretch. They fitted me well out the box and despite other reviews definitely not too tight and I am a medium and medium was fine.

Warm, comfortable gloves with plenty of protection. Only used in light rain so far, but they are goretex so not expecting any issues. Getting more and more comfortable every time I wear them. Best gloves I've ever bought.

These gloves are comfortable and feel like they are made from good quality materials. I did a commute today in 1 degree Celsius and my hands did not feel cold! Definitely recommend!

Quality gloves. Very comfortable, warm and give plenty of feedback
