Folks,

I'm looking to replace an older pair of gore-tex a* gloves. I got them in London, the only gore-tex gloves in the 'summer glove' section at Sondell Sports.

I'd like to see which one of the following gloves is actually the thinnest, in terms of insulation. I basically don't really want much. I have big gloves for if it gets sub-freezing. I need these for any rainy day.....

Those of you who know any of these, advice on this would be much appreciated!

Looks like a link can work to the page I'm seeing....just in case you want to click through for better pics or something.

Good write-ups on each of those gloves at newenough.com.
They refer to all four pairs as made for cold weather.
wow, good site. thanks for that. they've got 'real' pics on somebody's hand which is useful. Still unsure which one I want.... but this certainly helps!

thanks,

Yeah, they're great folks. They started by selling used leathers (hence, the name) and built the business on good prices and great customer service.

And I agree -- I find the pics really valuable.

Don't know if they ship to Japan, though.

You might also check the gloves at roadgear.com. They've always been my favorite and their H20-Tec glove sounds just like what you're looking for. Again, don't know about shipping to Japan. Good luck!
