Other cold weather Motorcycle Gear to consider are gloves. We’ve all been there, fingers freezing, not being able to hang onto the handle bars. Look for wind proof and insulated gloves that have a gauntlet to cover the sleeves of your jacket. Leather will offer protection if you go down but are not very waterproof and if you get caught in the rain will get very heavy and water logged. Textiles with Gore-Tex and Thinsulate insulation can provide both warmth and waterproofing. Some of the newer gloves even have Kevlar in them to provide even more protection.
