  • Gloves could be too tight at the thumb.

    If I go running in the Winter, With my run watch too tight. I get a Cold hand. Kinda interesting how little it takes to be honest.

    Right People. Standard long sleeve jersey fit? is it as relaxed as the brevet?

  • Sounds much more like AIDS to me. Absolutely no more kissing until you're cured.

  • The holes in the previous glove is a big clue tbh

  • Perhaps you should put your thumb somewhere warm.

  • Are you bending over Damian?

  • I'm not bending over Damian, I'm sat at my desk Damian.

  • Are you wearing trousers Damian?

  • I am wearing trousers with underpants Damian.

  • Solid.

  • do I have a physical condition if my thumbs froze after wearing dhb liners and rapha deep winter gloves this morning? Garmin said -0.1c

    If the fabric of the glove is taut over the end of your thumb then the insulation is doing almost nothing, hence the heat fucking off in a hurry.

    = get larger gloves.

  • Yeah but AIDS.

  • That's why we have rules - No glove, no love.

  • Good AIDS or bad AIDS?

  • Deep Winter AIDS

  • do I have a physical condition

    Yes.

  • DWAIDS sounds rough.

    I'm out.

  • Even if it's Coral?

  • Neoprene gloves are back in stock and not as pricey as other glove offerings surprisingly

    This reminds me to try the merino liners inside my assos rain glove lol

    [edit]

    Feedback on the overmitts, I think it's been mentioned before, but they leak at the flap on the index/middle finger. They should just get rid of it, doesn't function. Even if you could use your finger to tap your phone or open food, you cant get anything out of your pockets anyways with the overmitt. For me the merino gloves with overmitt worked better than using the merino liners.

  • That's why we have rules - No glove, no love.

    "You seen that glove on his left hand?"
    "Yeah. I seen it."
    "Well, that glove's fulla vaseline."
    "Vaseline? What the hell for?"
    "Well, I tell ya what-Curley says he's keepin' that hand soft for his wife."

  • Deep Winter AIDS

    Very good!

    Going to exchange small for medium and see if they work.

  • If your arms are cold then your hands wont warm up either.

  • Yeah this ^, keep your wrists warm. Lots of blood vessels close to the skin to lose heat from.

  • I went skiing recently for the first time, didn't get feet of death, now obviously the boots are insulated, but wondering if the insulated trousers didn't play a larger part than I may have thought.

  • Not true really- hat and gloves will keep you warm.
    Used to live in the Alps and ran in vest shirts but with gloves and hat and was always ok
