Alright since I know there is plenty of people here from Canada and others like me who are unfortunate enough to live where it is cold outside, What types of gloves do you wear when its cold??

Warm ones

Sorry, couldn't resist. I've got a set of AGVSPORT gloves (~$80) and silk inner liners (~$15) for when it gets really cold. The liners make all the difference

I'm using my rain gloves when it's colder. They are lined with polar and fully wind/rain proof. Brand is Ganka GKS model 60-1003

I just bought these gloves by EXL on EBAY from the store MOTO-DIRECTUSA for $39.95 plus S&H. They have kevlar knuckles, leather palms, and a mesh backhand. I also bought an EXL reinforced leather jacket from the same store. So far, I love the gloves, however, the back of them are mesh and so I KNOW I'm going to need to get liners for the winter.

DJump... where did you get your liners from?

The only thing I have found so far to work below zero C are snowmobile mitts. They are just too thick, though, to get a good feel for the controls. I'm still searching and thinking of snowmobile gloves, instead.

Somebody told me those 'two-finger' snowmobile gloves are awesome.

I can keep pretty warm except for my hands so I understand your problem. I still haven't gone for anything electric to help out and not sure if I will. I want to ride into late November again so we'll see how it goes.

Here's some I'm looking at at Canadian Tire. These gloves are made by Kombi so aren't the bee knees. (prices CDN dollars)

Hi there Guy's. I just went to my Loacl stealer. I checked 4 different stores and everyone had them so I'm guessing they're quite comman. I suggest the silk type as they're really good at keeping the warmth in.
