“Purchased these gloves for biking in the rain and cold. Like how light they are for biking while keeping my hands warm and dry. The fit is good in the length, however I do find them somewhat on the wider side for a small hand even though I purchased a xs.”
“All year round bike commuter in Montreal for the last 7 years, have tried/used quite a few pair of gloves to deal with the different weather conditions, mid seasons being particularly tricky periods, without ever being really satisfied by any of the products I've used so far.
Been using those Shower Pass gloves for a few weeks only and did not get a very rainy day yet so i can't vouch for:
- how durable they will be
- how long they would keep my hands dry under heavy rain
.. but my current assessment is that:
1. without a doubt the best (quality & design) mid season gloves I've come across up until now.
2. amazing job at keeping hands dry under light/medium rain.
3. hitting the sweet spot for when doing "active cycling" while temperature is already down to 0¬∞C: under those conditions most of the mid season gloves I've used so far would leave my hands either "icy cold" or "sweaty hot". Shower Pass gloves are doing a *much* better job here, very very pleased by the awesome dry/warm hands feelings (thanks merino wool) when reaching destination after an active commute ride of ~30min.”
“I bought these gloves as I commute by bike throughout the winter on Vancouver Island and wanted waterproof gloves for endless days of rain. The gloves are perfect for it -- they keep my hands warm and completely dry. I was very irritated to lose the pair I bought, but will buy another pair now, as they really were a great pair of gloves.”
“Bought these for cycling and they certainly keep your hands dry. Found them not as warm as I thought they'd be for winter given that they are wool; however they will certainly be great for the rest of the year.”
