REV'IT! Summit Gloves This stylish black glove is a great all-around glove for the sport touring rider. Both palm and upper are constructed of durable and strong goatskin. Protection comes by way of the racing-developed REVIT! dual-comp TPU palm slider, and TPR hard shell knuckle. Black, but by no means basic, SUMMIT goes the distance. The REVIT Summit makes for an excellent spring / fall glove. If you are looking for waterproofing, check out the fully waterproof version of this glove - the REV'IT! Summit H2O Glove REVIT PROTECTION FEATURES Outer shell goatskin, sure grip, hypalon Lining tri-fleece liner Composition outer shell 100 leather lining 100 polyester Protection PU injected finger knuckles, TPR hard shell knuckle, TPU hard-shell little finger protector, Dual-comp palm slider, schoeller-keprotec at palm, EVA foam at thumb and palm Visibility reflective logo at cuff ERGONOMIC FEATURES Fit tour fit Adjustability adjustment strap at wrist, adjustment tab at cuff Features stretch lips at fingers and backhand, sure grip patches, elastic at wrist, regular cuff

I'm a new rider, and these were the first gloves I purchased. I live near San Francisco, on the coast. The weather is close to perpetual fall, so I thought these would be warm enough. Mornings in the mid-50s (at highway speeds) are still pretty chilly in these gloves.
In the last few rides, I have also had uncomfortable rubbing on my left thumb when pulling the clutch. My hands are on the small side of large, and I bought these in L. This may be inevitable due to the range of motion required.
For my purposes, I will probably go with a higher end, more insulated glove, but keep these for the warm days.
Yes, I recommend this product.

REV'IT! Element 2 H20 Gloves A flexible knuckle and reflective insert on the cuff give the ELEMENT II H2O its unique and sporty look. The lining and membrane make this full leather winter glove warm and waterproof, to ensure a comfortable ride in the cold and/or rain. Patches on the fingertips allow a better grip on the handlebars. It would be tough to find a more comfortable pair of all-round winter gloves. PROTECTION FEATURES Outer Shell Cowhide, goatskin with WR finish, synthetic PU leather, suede leather with WR finish Insulation Fiberfill, Push-Pull tri-fleece liner Waterproofing Hydratex Z-liner (5000mm H2O) Breathability Hydratex Z-liner (5000g/m2/24hrs) Composition Outer Shell 92 leather, 4 polyamide, 3 polyester, 1 polyurethane Lining 100 polyester Membrane 100 polyurethane Protection PU injected finger knuckles, PU injected knuckle, EVA foam at little finger, thumb, palm and cuff, PWRaramid at palm Visibility Reflection at cuff ERGONOMIC FEATURES Fit Tour fit Adjustability Adjustment strap at wrist, adjustment tab at cuff Features Stretch lips at fingers and back hand, elastic at wrist, regular cuff
What temperatures is this glove good for riding in?
I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada so the riding season isn't very long. I like to ride from when the snow melts to when the snow flies again. This often means riding in cool temps though. I'm looking for a glove that will keep my hands warm and dry on the highway when the temp is as low as 2 or 3 Celsius (35-37F). Will these gloves do that?
In my opinion, you'll freeze in these.
