Summer Waterproof Gloves

I have some Alpinestars leather gloves with goretex in them as I have been so impressed with their goretex boots. The gloves are indeed pretty waterproof. They are like a normal sort of race glove, although they feel a little stiffer and less comfortable (but I may have a size too small). Whenever it's wet, those are the gloves I wear and I'd recommend them.

 

How about these?

Very lightweight and waterproof and in Ducati red as well

 

I've been looking myself prior to this trip up Scotland but I don't think manufacturers market their wp range as such.

You see all of the goretex or wp gloves mention wet or cold (as they would) so I can only presume there's not really a glove specific for summer and wet weather.

Imo goretex is the way to go because it's breathable so I'm looking at the dainese offerings

 

Yeah pretty tricky to find a waterproof summer glove, I tried Dainese pro shop in Bristol last year for some and he told me they didn't really make anything at all like that.
Recommended summer gloves and stick a pair of surgical gloves underneath
Their Gore-tex range all seemed to be winter lined from what I can remember

Could try these from Rev'it?
REV'IT! Motorcycle Gloves Drifter H2O WP

Or have a look at the Elemet from Klim (big fan of their stuff, have their Overland Jacket and Pants, really good in all weathers so far, it's more of a outer layer but I have a heated inner jacket for round the year riding). It doesn't sound like it has heavy insulation in it and is Goretex

 

You need goretex gloves with Xtrafit technology. There are a few companies making them. Try Held gloves.

Glove Technologies - GORE-TEX® Products

 

Lindstrands - I have the Zernit gloves but most of their range has a Dryway+ membrane. Kept the hands dry through some very heavy downpours.

 

Waterproof? I wear these on 30deg days

 

I've a pair of waterproof summer gloves Rukka Appollos, and whilst they are waterproof, they are far to hot for summer (above 20degC) use as they make my hands very sweaty . Great in cool spring/autumn temps but not summer . I think any glove with a waterproof lining will just not ventilate enough.

 

sounds like Alpinestars 365's - very good gloves..i use them for wet trackdays..
