I was just lamenting my cold weather gloves and thinking about how each type I try sucks in new and interesting ways and I thought-

Cyclists are probably glove experts. Anyone here willing to educate me on comfortable gloves that last and work with touch screens/etc? I don’t ride, so I won’t require big protection from road rash or extra padding/protection, so I might be asking in the wrong place.

Just a thought that occurred to me, a few thousand riders probably know where the good gloves are. Thanks in advance, or sorry in advance, whichever applies.

    I don’t believe in gloves that are good and work well with touch screens.

    What temps are you looking for? Waterproof? Gauntlet? Fingers vs mittens? Level of dexterity? Fabric? Work or casual–what application?

      WOO those are better questions than I considered answers for.
      I live in Wisconsin, it’s cold. They don’t need to be super warm- I have “hands might die” type gloves for the really bad shit- I’m looking for I guess driving, using a phone, super comfortable- looking for something that doesn’t feel like nothing but stitched seams on the inside. So the whole touch screen thing- I see videos of riders being able to use their phones but the last two “works with screens” pairs I bought- didn’t. AT ALL.
