ProFlex 818OD Thermal Waterproof Gloves with OutDry. Anyone use these gloves?
I normally use youngstown gloves, but the last pair have lasted less than a couple of months.
Good gloves normally and a pair in the past have lasted two winters.

Yes, best gloves ever for winter. i have had mine for past 3 months now, and very happy with it.

Youngstown don't last. You won't find better than these.

I have had mine for a few months now. A bit ugly, but brilliant grip, totally waterproof and very warm. 

Oh, and only £14.99.

showa 490



had mine all winter and showing no sign of wear

I bought a pair of showa 460 after reading recommendations on here. Not overly impressed, after a couple of days use, the insides started to feel damp, sweat you see, and it is very awkward to turn them inside out to dry. Have not used them for a while now, but i think you would need a couple of pairs, to alternate, plus liners to absorb your sweat!. 

[Perfect Windows]

Yep. Showa 460 for me, though the 490s will do at a pinch. (Difference is in thickness of outer layer; 490s are a bit thicker, so I find them a tiny bit unwieldy).

Not that it's mattered this winter.  I think I've only had them on about half a dozen times.  The rest of the time 377s have been enough.

Not had that problem but I do note that the slightest bit of water spilt inside them wicks all the way through the lining, so I wonder if that's what's happening?  I work very hard to avoid that.

I don't try to turn them inside out; they go on a radiator with a small ball of tin foil int he palm section to keep them open and allow the damp air out.  They go in the wash once in a while.  Normal wash, tumble dry, radiator finish.  They'll withstand about four washes before the lining starts to ball and lose its effectiveness a little.  Then they are used in cold but not brass-monkey weather.

Yes, I have a couple of pair on the go all the time.  As I say, though, hardly been on this year.

I have never had that problem. As Vin suggested, you might be getting water into them.

1.5mm thick versus 1mm thick from memory.

[P.C.S.]

377's aren't much use in cold conditions... they'll take the edge off on a cool day but they aren't the best when the temperature gets really low.

I've also got a pair of the 390's, not had cold hands in those but you do struggle to feel anything with them on... as they are 1.5mm thick they are VERY unwieldy!
Warm enough though! 

My personal favourites are the Skytec Argon or UCI Icetherm.

Plus black and horribly rough hands that catch on your silk underwear.

One pair of blue vinyl gloves lasts me a day or two.

If its cold two pairs, i never get why people need these super doper gloves that are waterproof and windproof.

If i pick up dog poo i throw my gloves away. Cannot get any better than that.
