Overall, customers find them to be a quality, reliable option for general outdoor use, albeit with some room for improvement.
A nice pair of gloves very warm and waterproof fingers still nice and toasty after 50 miles in freezing conditions
Great fit, warm and good feeling despite generous warm padding
I bought a pair of these a few years ago and they are the warmest and most comfortable of all my gloves. I own heated gloves, summer gloves and waterproof specific gloves but these are my go-to all rounders. I realised that after several years of use they were looking tired and was relieved that they still sold them and bought another pair. Like good shoes, always get another pair as you might regret it later! They are probably too warm in the summer months but would always prefer that to being cold
Ridden in temps as low as 3 or 4 degrees, fingers feel the cold pretty quickly, above 7 degrees, fine. OK in light showers, I've not used them in heavy rain. Well made, good fit and wouldn't hesitate to buy them again. Quickly shipped by Sportsbikeshop as usual.
Nice gloves, well made, and a good fit.
I have had Richa gloves before, so like the fit and quality. I take a size large in Richa, but think the sizing is on the small side.
The Arctic gloves are warm enough while still being dextrous , l do have heated grips though.
Great winter gloves from a good name at a good price
A little snug but has eased off. Very warm even for UK.
These are well-made protective gloves but they're not particularly warm. Even at 8 degrees celcius my hands were feeling cold.
First impressions are really good with these gloves, but they are quite bulky meaning very little finger dexterity. These are winter gloves - so what do you expect.....? So hard to knock them too much for that.
Next issue is they do not work on touch sensitive screens. I should have checked that before buying - but I didn't so I can't complain; but if I was buying again I would definitely continue looking rather than buying these.
Last point - the 'lumpy' armour on the fingers means you can't wipe a mirror with the back of your hand. Riding with fogged up mirrors is not ideal - so you need to use your finger tips to wipe them - which seems a bit unnatural to me..
Overall - very good gloves, but I wish I had thought about what I need a bit more rather than being swayed by the rave reviews.
Truly excellent gloves, kept my hands dry and almost too warm during 450 mile trip on 3rd & 4th October ‘25 during the height of Storm Amy. A great product at a decent price. During the same trip most of my mates who had heated grips were relying on these to give some relief to their soaking hands ( I don’t have heated grips as riding an old Triton with small battery).
Size guide I am Large, but they felt tight and I eventually had to go to Harlow and try XL and 2XL and 3XL on in the shop. 2XL were best fit.
So I needed two sizes up !!
Haven't tried below 10 degrees yet but they seem comfy and super warm with the thick fleece lining compared to my plain summer RST Leather gloves. A little bulky after summer gloves, but you gotta expect that for the warmth provided.
I would definitely recommend.
So far so good, bought ‘L’ for (smaller) ‘L’ hands.
Richa Artic gloves are very good fit, do not need to be smaller than your normal size. Feels like they have very good protection.
I took delivery of these gloves just in time for a 900 mile 4day trip around the Scottish Highlands and Islands. From the start they felt comfortable and well proved their waterproof capabilities in around 600 miles of driving rain.
Very happy with my purchase.
I wanted another set of winter gloves for the cold and wet months and invested in these Richa Arctics. They are comfortable enough but the inner layer moves around when taking them off, especially when wet, so longevity might be an issue. They had a few hard seams which have worn down with use, particularly on the thumb joints. The knuckle protectors scuff and mark easily so will have some patina in short order. They are warm enough for autumn but I expect them to be a struggle in winter without heated grips. The cuffs like to fold in at the very end when putting them on and the fingers are too thick to do any fine movement when they're on (such as pulling the cuffs out). All in all they're a good glove and I don't think you'll regret buying them but they're not a great glove and I wouldn't buy them again.
I like these. Dry warm, well made. Sizing a bit small so go up one size. Would buy again.
Kept my hands dry during heavy rain storms and I found them easy to take off/on again even with damp hands at fuel stops etc. My first pair of Richa gloves lasted for many years and after spending loads of cash on various other brands I`ve gone back to Richa.....why did I ever change!
