Hello everyone,

I wonder if anyone got the Sealskinz All Weather and/or Winter Gloves? Are they any good? The cold sometimes convert itself to terrible pain signals on my poor fingers! The Sealskinz website says "All Weather Gloves" and the "Winter Gloves" has a rating of 3 and 4 respectively. Will the Winter Gloves get too warm?
 
They're brilliant-stand up to wet really well. If you really suffer with the cold is it worth trying the inserts you can buy to heat in microwave & put in gloves too?
 
brilliant things. Undersized and feel smaller once damp and thn dried, buy them slightly too big. Don't take them off once your hands are damp, they are devils to get back on :)

note to sealskinz - you need to find a lining which is less sticky to damp hands!!
 
Yes, have a pair but they were so expensive I'm almost reluctant to use them! But seriously they are good. Agree about the sizing.
 
They are incredible!!!
I have a pair of the winter riding gloves, and a pair of their competition gloves (much more lightweight with grippy bits) and don't know how I managed without them. Their winter riding gloves are quite bulky so I only tend to ride in them on the very coldest of days and wear the competition ones for most rides, but saying that I do wear them daily in winter for yard tasks as they just do not let the cold in and I love that I can dunk my hands in icy troughs and not suffer!
Well worth the money :D x
 
I have a pair of the winter and a pair of the ultra grip.

The ultra grip I thought would be tougher but they are uncomfortable (hard and crackly feeling), are tight around even my tiny fingers and have a hole in them already! They go in the wash but don't come up great and dry harder each time. I won't be getting another pair.

The winter gloves are warmer, easier to move your fingers, soft and comfortable. A little bulky but I do all my yard work in them now (I work in a busy riding school and livery yard day in day out all day!). They are wearing better than the ultra grip and despite me bunging them in the washing machine (they are meant to be wipe clean only (yeah right with horses?!) ) they have survived remarkably well. These I would replace.
 
I've got the ladies winter riding gloves and was glad I tried them on before buying as I needed to get the large and even so, could wish the fingers on them were a little longer; I don't have massive hands.

They are warm but can't say they're massively better than a good pair of fleece gloves at a third of the price.
 
I've got them too. Seriously warm but I have wrecked them using them as my main work glove. Would get another pair for next winter.

Agree with poster who says about taking them off when your hands are damp. Nightmare to get back on.
 
I like mine, don't mind paying the price for them, BUT they aren't warm enough :( Great for 'chilly' weather, but not freezing. But I have awfully cold hands even when it's warm.
 
I often have problems with my hands overheating in gloves and I don't in these (have the thickest ones).

I absolutly love them
 
anyone know how to wash them?! thinking of storing mine away for next winter (hopeful!) but would rather put them away clean. Unhelpfully the label basically says don't do anything!
