Whenever I look for winter gloves on Amazon, I find the comments say "These are great gloves! I had them out on a ride the other day. It was 43 degrees out and my hands were still warm!"

That's not cold weather. I have a pair of wool and fleece gloves that I wear most of the time. They're a very light pair of gloves that look like they wouldn't be that warm, but they seem to be good down to about 19 degrees. (The link is to the Amazon page of the gloves I use.) I want a glove that is warm down to about -3 degrees, which is about as cold as it gets here. (All degrees fahrenheit)

For now, I just put some shell mittens over my wool/fleece gloves, and that works well enough for the one hour rides I do most mornings, but on the coldest of days, it seems like I could do with a warmer glove. (And warmer feet, but that's another question.)

Any recommendations for that range of around -3 to 19 degrees fahrenheit?

Thanks

these are my go to. I have trouble keeping my hands warm https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 better then the best bike gloves I have tired.

My hands get cold easily so I tend to run warmer gloves than most people do. For really cold weather, I like mountaineering insulated mittens. I'd just find whatever you can find on sale at REI outlet or somewhere similar.

Shell mitts are a good choice too.

Black Diamond-I got turned on to them when doing snow patrols and search and rescue on the slopes. They're light, semi-water proof, and my hands have never sweated in them. I got to the point where I even wore them for snowmobiling instead of my regular snow gloves because of their dexterity. They let you shift and brake on a bike almost as good as fingerless gloves.

I've always wanted to try bar mitts / pogies.

PI Amfib lobster gloves work for me, although it gets a little colder where you are. Their only "flaw" is they're too warm to wear over about 25F.

Yes, for those really cold days BarMitts or pogies work really well. They do look a bit dorky but they give you the real advantage of being able to wear lighter gloves, which are less restrictive. I've found that the heavier gloves significantly affect my ability to brake as well as causing a bit of discomfort gripping the bars,

but if you have misers and such they area pain. the gloves I mentioned I can shift and brake just fine I can operate the buttons on my controls too. some of the heavy bike gloves I cant do it as well. but the weather here in portland varies so much I need last two pairs of gloves every day.

My fav would be polypro / capilene / wool glove liners, then a thick oversize wool mitten, then a coated codura / goretex mitten shell. Good to -35f on a bike. I've never found a glove that works in real cold. A cold hands system can be taken apart for drying, one piece super mitts are a PIA if they get wet. Good shells should have a loop of something like paracord sewn inside the cuff, that's for your mitten keeper cord that goes from one shell, up the sleeve, across the back, down the other sleeve, to the other mitten shell.

I see a lot of ATVers using bar mitts.

I have an older version of the Pearl Izumi Elite soft shell gloves. And am quite pleased -even a bit surprised- by their performance. Even though they are close to 20 years old now, they still work at least down to the low 20's on the road.

Pogies make a big difference. It allows you to use a lighter glove with more dexterity and covers the wrist area which is often exposed.

The warmest gloves I have are made from Deerskin leather with thick Sherpa lining on the inside

Love those gloves. Haven't had to use my bar mitts since I got these though they do make my hands sweaty at times.

Thanks everyone. I think I'll give Pogies a try.

AND/OR have a backup pair is a good tip too. (Maybe some hand warmers too.)
