Thoroughly recommend these. I bought some cheap bar mitts from China after losing loads of pairs of expensive gloves.
My hands tend not to get too cold if I'm working at a reasonable intensity, but I've had issues trundling around town at 8°C. Since fitting these (sometime around Christmas) I haven't worn gloves. Good in rain, good in the wet and if it was to get really cold you'd just need a thin pair of gloves underneath and can retain bar feel.
Surprised they haven't caught on, seeing as almost every motorised bike around London is equipped with a pair.
