Waterproof gloves
 

I have tried to find waterproof winter gloves for two seasons to no avail. Gloves advertised as waterproof have not been. Has anyone found a glove they can actually ride in the rain that works?

Thanks.

I haven't really looked, but you might want to try searching for gloves used for kayaking or specific winter sports like skiing. I actually use my old fingerless cycling gloves for kayaking.

Dive gloves/mitts like those

Alternatively go for bike pogies or bar mitts. They're not gloves specifically, but gloves for your handlebars, which provide a layer of waterproofing and allow you to wear thin gloves.

I love mine.

Fatbikes.com has pretty much the best selection of the best available.

I lived off the back of my motorcycles for 6 years. In the rain I always wore rain mitts. They fit over your regular gloves, and are completely waterproof. I imagine they would be cumbersome on a bicycle but if complete dryness is what you're after then that would be an option. Personally, I just ride with regular gloves, fingerless or otherwise, on the bicycle. I am not bothered by wet hands on the bike (I guess the motorcycle is different, in 100+ mph winds, lol). The other option, what we use for emergencies on the motorcycle, is to wear surgical gloves UNDER your other gloves. Won't keep your gloves dry and will be clammier than the first option, but they will at least give you full finger movement. There is also an emergency solution for keeping your feet dry on the motorcycle, and that is a bread bag over your sock. But there are also rubber booties that fit over your boots (or in the case of a bicycle, shoes), which are made for motorcyclists. If you want 100% effective rain gear then the motorcycle shops will have it. Motorcycle rain gear is also made to withstand extreme winds, and will not tear under any condition. It's hard to find raingear which is also durable. A 2-piece rainsuit for motorcycles will last you forever, besides keeping you 100% dry. But it'll also cost you in the hundreds and will not be the lightest thing, and could be cumbersome and not allow precise movement. I'm just giving this option because you seem particularly concerned about full waterproofing. Personally, I have learned simply enjoy partial weather resistance on the bicycle. ;) (though on the motorcycle I take rain gear VERY seriously)

Basically, finding 100% effective rain gear is very easy. The problem is that there are compromises you always have to weigh. Your 100% effective rain gear may not be 1) lightweight or 2) fitted for easy or precise movement or 3) very affordable.

Had some waterproof gloves and found them to be intolerable for bicycling. The perspiration moisture built up inside them and made them much more uncomfortable than gloves that let in a little rain but also let some interior water escape. Wearing latex gloves inside them made them more reasonable since at least the perspiration was kept out of the glove insulation.

For riding in a cold rain I use Glacier gloves when the temps are below 45f/7c. I heard about them here on BF and bought a pair last year. They keep my hands warm and dry down to about 25f/-3c. They fit a size small. I'm 5'9" with average size hands. I bought a size L and they fit too tight. I kept them anyways. I don't use them that much. But they are in my bag when the temperatures dip.

I've actually worn these for a few winters working at a outdoor ice rink (part time). It wasn't what they were bought for, but they kept my hands drier than my good gloves. I hate wet hands. Cold Weather Work Gloves, Large
