  • My rapha gloves are finally dying so I need some new ones for this winter. I’ve been using some of their windproof/water resistant gloves combined with a merino liner for the last few years and they’ve been okay but not great.

    I have some neoprene dhb gloves that work OK for chilly wet days but they’re not warm for the really cold days where it’s <5C. Any recommendations?

    I'd look for gloves with Primaloft, warm but still thin with good dexterity. Castelli have a large and confusing range of Primaloft gloves. Then carry packable waterproof overgloves for emergencies/unepexted heavy rain.

  • Drop bars or flats/risers? If the latter, I love my Sealskinz lobster gloves. They're a nightmare with drops and hoods though.

  • for cold days i really rate castelli spettacolo gloves which i wear with v thin altura merino liners - v warm but still relatively dextrous - and the zip makes them super easy to get on and off, esp with liners, so no swearing by the side of a cold damp road somewhere while you struggle to get your gloves on again...
