Goretex Gloves recommendation needed.

A friend of mine was using Alpine Stars, which I inheirted after he crashed and I picked them up off the ground after they had been cut off by the paramedics (dumn asses). I sewed them back together and started using them. They were slightly large, but still very nice. I lost them and found an equal by Alpine Star, almost exactly the same, but newer. I had such good success with them over three years that I had to have the same. My new ones are even better because the fit perfectly, better than any other Gortex glove I have had. The model is: [/url]Alpinestars Archer-X-Trafittm Gloves.   They run a size small.

I use these year round along with an inexpensive vented glove.  I also use mits in the winter.  Got them for the FZ-09 but use them on the FJR and FJ.

The temperature has dropped to proper November ones after the unseasonably warm spell.
 
The Tucano Muffs are on - the proper ADV ones, not the neoprene ones used last winter. You'll need to remove the OE handguards for these. I jave the the KTM ones.

The fabric gloves mentioned above have been tested now and work well - French brand Ixon

Good summer rain glove or warm enough for autumn and spring rides when the sun isn't shining. CE knuckle protection.

super comfy, pretty good wp and room for an inner liner if they are not warm enough. Only mild cheese factor:

Has anyone used the Cortech Scarab gloves? http://www.revzilla.com/product/cortech-scarab-winter-gloves
 
My current winter gloves are not waterproof and do not have any armor in them, but they are comfy and warm.

 
I have a pair and they are great gloves, warm and dry!
