    Glove Liners

    I ride with Violater gloves and they aint the best at keeping the fingers warm, does anyone use liners/inners and are they any good, would need to be thin and was thinking of silk as people rave about the silk scarves that are about.

    So anyone use, suggest some good inners for gloves?

    Silk glove liners are brilliant. Get them from a hiking and camping store.

    I use polypropylene (sp?) gloves as my inners. My normal gloves have air vents on the leading edge of a couple of finges (quasi-gloves) so arent the best winter gloves. PP gloves are f-ing cheap so loosing them aint that bad.

    I have silk gloves too.

    a cheap and easy, quick fix. Rubber gloves (the ones they search you with at the airport), like latex, or if your skin doesn't like latex, non-latex rubber gloves.

    Icebreaker Merino gloves are even better than silk IMO.
    Really warm and thin enough to wear under any glove, about the same price as good silk too. try your local camping store.

    Silk liners. $20 at ski and camp. Work well without too much bulkiness.

    I'm with Hitcher! I use Spidi silk innners which I got from Motomail about 3 years ago and they've stood the test of time. Good for summer use too. I used to find that sweaty hands used to pull the liners on my summer gloves inside out and they were almost impossible to get back without lumps on the ends of the fingers. Silk inners stopped that from happening.

    Don't bother with the Oxford Glove Inners, I have bought them to try and keep my hands warm and they haven't done the job I'm afraid. But what works for one person doesn't for the next, so don't take my word on it, try them out yourself.

    Used polyprop gloves on the Brass Monkey and my hands were always the warmest.

    Got them from katmandu for $8 I think.

    I got some merino and possum blend gloves - from that touristy shop next door to Autobahn at papakura.
    They work real well at about $20. Only need medium weight outers with them under - and comfy as.

    I doubt I would get another layer on under my gloves.
