Deerskin Gloves

I too spent a lot of time looking and eventually went for these (as I wanted the armour protection). They also come in black and there is another with a thermal and waterproof lining. Flexibility remains good too.

Goldtop do some nice leather gloves without armour, too. I bought the short bobber gloves in both black and brown (https://www.goldtop.co.uk/product-page/short-bobber-gloves-brown)

 

They're very comfortable too, Aidan - the only downside is that they're a bit too thick to get any real benefit from my heated grips.

 

Yes, spot on!

 

I’ve been wearing these
Very waterproof
Not the warmest gloves I’ve had
But ok with heated grips
The armour doesn’t look like it’s up to much but I’ve not tested them in a crash
Very very cheap though

I do like a bargain

 

Just yesterday I ordered a pair of the gold top cafe racer gloves. Don’t forget the forum 5% discount if you buy from them
