    +1.

    I've had them for a couple of years now and used them in snow, torrential weather and even into a stream....they definately work although I find it a bit harder to use the hand controls with winter cloves & the Rain Offs on....

    Good stuff, them plus a full rainsuit and you don't get wet, total cost about $120......great value.

    So if you put them on, and put your hands into a bucket of water, you hands still stay dry?

    Yip those gloves rock 100%, they are the only truly 100% fully waterproof gloves I have ever owned, nothing else comes close. Good quality and well worth the dollar!

    They sound like a real good idea for next winter !! Thanks for the feedback on them OLT. I will check them out. Which model did you end up with ? Looking at them, I'm not sure which style I would like .... ?

    Got a pair of these gloves maybe 8 years ago. Had a cell number on gloves so all my mates rang and ordered as well when seeing how good they were. Story was that designer was a Kiwi courier in London and made some waterproof gloves for himself and started selling them on his return to NZ.
    Extra good on chilly days, cut the chill factor right down.

    Even when it is not raining, heated grips keep the palms of your hands warm, but these stop the wind chill on the backof your hands, well worth while.

    Seen the glove taken off and filled from a tap, could have used it as a bucket, there was nothing dripping out, several hours later the glove was still full.

    I hope he uses other protection when riding his patients.

    I depends how deep the bucket and how far you put your hands in. Also whether Liza has a hole in the bucket.

    1) left glove on, right glove on, left over glove on, right over glove on, use mouth to tighten draw strings, put helmet on......bugger.

    2) Helmet on, right glove on, left glove on, right and left over glove on, use mouth toooooo....Buggar

    Short of an "excuse me sir, could you help me with my gloves" I find I cannot get them on and sealed tight enough on my own to stop water dribbling down my sleeve into my gloves.

    I prefer two gloves, summer and winter waterproof, I usually carry both with me on longer trips.
