Givi TM418 Motorcycle Hand Mitts - Black Windproof Winter Gloves for Cold Weather Riding - Perfect for Bikers & Commuters

I bought these handle-bar gloves since my previous Tucano Urbano worn out after 4 years. Givi is another Italian brand, known for its quality, so I chose them. At first, I was disappointed, as these gloves are advertised as "universal", but they did not fit well on my Aprilia Mojito. The reason is that they are designed without considering the mirror bars on the handle-bars most scooters have. So when I first used them, they were really uncomfortable as they would not slide high enough on the handle-bars, blocked by the mirror bars, and make the arrow and the other buttons really difficult to reach and operate. I decided to modify the gloves, making a small hole on the top so that I could fit them up all the way that I needed, and then insert the mirror bars in the hole. This makes the gloves really functional and comfortable now! I will need to see how they keep in time, especially if the tiny hole I made doesn't enlarge too much allowing wind or water to drop in, but so far, so good, also with drizzling rain. I am not suggesting doing the same as I did, but I couldn't be bothered to return them, so I made them work this way. For this design fault, I am not sure I would buy them again, but rather look for a more appropriate model for my bike.I’ve had these for a couple of months now and I’m very happy. I’ve worn them several times in -6 plus windchill on multiple days with my summer gloves on underneath and while my hands weren’t warm, they weren’t frozen either. I’ve worn them in heavy rain and then again 14 hrs later when that water had frozen and turned the muffs into little ice boxes for my hands, still not a huge problem on a 30min commute (wouldn’t want to do longer at those temps in summer gloves though). The only advice I’d give is pretty obvious, they come off and on easily so don’t be lazy like me and towel dry them inside and out (1 min effort including removal), your fingertips will thank you for avoiding the icebox situation. They lose 1* for being a little tight around the brake lever, not an issue while riding but they do regularly tug on it when reversing and turning simultaneously. A bit annoying but easily overcome with some repositioning (inside with fingertips).PER-FEC-TAS. En invierno ni puños calefactables, ni guantes gore tex, ni piel de búfalo, ni piel de oso de Alaska con 32 años capado con piedras de santuario indio, ni corta vientos, ni nada de nada es válido. Las manos se congelan. Con estas manoplas es otro nivel, se instalan en 1 minuto, son grandes sí, pero eso es precisamente lo bueno, te pones unos guantes de verano, y tienes "libertad de movimientos" en la mano. Tened en cuenta que tapan la piña de interruptores, hay que practicar algo con intermitentes, luces... pero un plis plas lo controlas. Las he probado en BMW GS, y en Indian Scout, deben ser válidas para cualquier moto. ¿Son feas?, sí mucho, pero te olvidas del dolor de los dedos congelados. Las recomiendo al 100%.Great quality at this price. Easy to fit, though not so much that I would remove them after each use. Unlike a cheaper pair I have, these do not collapse when riding at motorway speeds, which means I can still get to the indicator switch without simultaneously pressing the horn (a problem that may be specific to my Honda SHI300). The mits are weatherproof, as you would expect, although the fur trim will get damp around the inner edge when left out in the rain. These are large mits compared to some on the market, but their appearance is fine by my reckoning.Not warm at all. Takes lots of wind in it. Also took the paint of my bike. Don’t buy.
