I've used a variety of lightweight full-fingered gloves this winter. They tend to be warm but not breatheable, breathable but not warm, or warm but inhibiting dexterity. These do it all. They keep my hands warm down to 35 degrees (I don't want to ride in colder weather) and it's easy to manipulate my Garmin watch or my bike computer without having to remove a glove. I REALLY like these gloves.
Lots of research went into choosing these gloves way before WBW put them on sale. I ordered one size larger than I normally wear because these do not have padded palms, grip surface yes but no padding, so I wanted to slip them over my padded fingerless gloves. They do that and I wonder if I could've done it with ordering my normal size? Then again, warmth is better with a looser fit. I appreciate the thin material used as I still have some feel for the handlebars. After my Great Divide Trail ride this Fall, I will be able to speak about durability. For now I am very happy.
These gloves are so stylish and comfortable h. When you first get them they feel small and tight but just squeeze your hand in and wear that for a bit and it will stretch to give you a good fit.
