Hob&Jill 258 Posted December 7, 2009 Report Share Posted December 7, 2009 Macwet gloves. Not overly warm but will take the wind chill and most cold. I dont really like gloves as they are always to bulky and combersome but these fit really well as they come in loads of numbered sizes not just s, m, l, xl, etc. They are not really waterproof but ive never had them wet when its raining so they are showerproof really. I would really recommend them but you might not think they are suitable for what you want. Search on google they have a website. HJ Quote Link to post
bicykillgaz 1 Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 i have owned a couple of pairs of sealskinz gloves, socks and have a hat too and they are great if its the cold thats the main problem they do thermal glove liners for extra warmth all there stuff is hard wearing they also do purpose built shooting gloves with trigger finger thing, not seen them my self but if there made like the rest of there kit they'll be quality and worth investing in Quote Link to post

owdnorthener 13 Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Hi, I dont know if these would be ok for shooting, but from tomorrow Aldi are selling " Anglers neoprene 100% waterproof gloves" at £ 4.99 a pair. They have a split foldback thumb and forefinger. They could be worth a look. regards Quote Link to post
scamp 1 Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Don't waste your cash on sealskinz gloves, i had a pair and they are crap, the manufacturer states that they are waterproof, i can assure you they are not, mines fell apart after 1 seasons use. I sent them back to the manufacturer to complain but they just sent them back stating that they tested them and as far they were concerned they were not faulty, any decent company would have at least sent a replacement pair. Look on amazon they sell them and there is some reviews from customers who purchased them. Get yourself something made from neoprene, Deben do ones with trigger finger holes. Quote Link to post
