I bought a pair of gloves from a Japanese (Honda / Kawasaki / Suzuki / Rice A Roni) dealer that were both wind and water proof.

They worked up to 35° F at 95 MPH on the motorcycle.

Best to find some gloves with thermal insulation. I have some Hathaway deerskin gloves which a thermal layer and other insulation which I picked up from Costco for £10

Had them for 3 years now and my hands are always toasty.

there where these one super thinsulate gloves, they looked like imitation wool, and had this spongy like interior that completly grabbed you hand and fingers, those where the best gloves ever and had a water proof interior lining.

i lost them two weeks after owning them[] and havent been able to find a pair like them. i think they where bought at sears.

Here's some pics of mine, just noticed it's only 40g thinsulate. 100g would be overkill lol
