Top of the must-have list for the year-round rider is to be warm, dry and comfortable, so the Lima features a waterproof, windproof and breathable inner liner and a 40-gram Thinsulate thermal layer too. Working together, they act a barrier against wind and rain, insulate from the cold and allow perspiration to escape.
Genuine 3M Thinsulate is soft and compressible, making it flexible enough for gloves, which are difficult to insulate effectively without restricting movement or compromising fit. Stretch panels to top of hand and top of fingers are also a feature, enhancing fit and flexibility.
Velcro adjustment at the cuff and an elasticated wrist section ensure a snug fit under or over winter riding jackets, and help to prevent cold air and rain sneaking in through gaps.
The full grain leather and textile combination construction is tough & durable, with integrated reinforcement at the knuckles, TPU shell armour and double-layered leather at key impact points
Weise Lima gloves come in sizes S-3XL and retail for just £49.99, visit weise-clothing.co.uk.
The Review
Keeping your hands warm is always difficult whilst riding a motorcycle in winter, most gloves will not keep your hands warm during winter without some other winter aids, such as handlebar muffs and/or heated grips (although the later doesn’t necessarily keep the tips of your fingers warm!).
The Weise gloves feel very bulky when wearing for the first time (although they do break in a little) but they are genuinely waterproof and breathable.
A lot of glove for your money, recommended.
