Best Gloves I have...and I have a LOT!!!

David Emmerling - 5/15/2010

I have been riding for about 20 years. To date I have over well 100,000 miles by motorcycle.
During all these miles I have been looking for the perfect glove. I wanted a glove that kept me warm but didn't weigh a ton or was so big I couldn't pull the clutch/brake lever, push a button, flip my visor or scratch my nose. I wanted a glove that every time I took it off the liner WOULD STAY IN PLACE!!! OH YEA!
A glove that offered protection should I go down (this never happens). A padded palm to help dampen the vibration in the handlebars (My GS has a bad habit of vibrating and on long days it will severly numb the feeling in your hands). And of course I wanted the glove to be COMFORTABLE and waterproof.
I am happy (actually VERY HAPPY), to say I have found THE glove (and I have 13 pairs..I just counted them).
The Thermosport is comfortable, it has a padded palm, it is NOT bulky, it is warm, completely waterproof (thank you west Texas downpour test ride!), offers great protection, and when you take your hand out everything stays in place for next time (no more takin a damn pencil and trying to shove the pinky part of the liner back into the #$%&* glove). The gaunlet is wide enough to fit over your jacket, easy to close and more importantly reopen, (again with a bulky glove with large fingers you cannot manipulate the velcro closures on some gloves..with the Thermosport this is not an issue).
And lastly I have to say the price is a BARGIN. My good friend and riding buddy bought cool weather riding gloves from a name brand company..paid twice what I paid..and while his gloves are nice he likes mine better...so there you go.
Let's put it this way. In June I leave for Prudhoe Bay Alaska from my home here in Texas. Ten thousand miles. I am taking two pairs of gloves. The Thermosport, and the Rapido (ordered Rapido last night).
Only reason I am not taking just the Thermosport is the Thermosport will be to warm (Rapido is vented) until I get to the Yukon. But it WILL be my rain glove no matter where I am. The Thermosport is just as these folks say it is. You will not be disappointed in any way. Save yourself time and the 13 pairs of gloves I went thru...try these.
Hope this helps!
Enjoy the Ride.
see ya

Winter woes over - Kis cilesi sona erdi

Muhittin - 2/18/2010

It's warm, it's loaded with protective features and fits spot-on on my hands. Finger length is just perfect for my digit. People with narrow hands and long fingers may find them a little short, though.

I intend to buy one pair of Rapido gloves too when my current pair of summer gloves wear out.

Hem sicak tutuyor hem de her kosesinden koruma fiskiyor. L boyu da ellerime tam oldu. Ama dar ayalara ve uzun parmaklara sahip olanlar parmak boylarini biraz kisa bulabilir gibi geldi bana.

Mevcut yazlik eldivenlerim eskiyince bu markanin Rapido modelinden de almak niyetindeyim. Fiyatlar uygun oldugu gibi Thermosport 20 küsür dolara kapima kadar geldi. Not: Kapim Istanbul'da :)


Awesome glove for the money

Sean - 2/10/2010

I recently purchased 2 pairs of these gloves for my wife and I. We used the BMG sizing recommendations and the fit was perfect.

My first impression was "wow" these are impressive gloves for the money spent. The gloves they replaced were only about $9 cheaper and only half the glove these were.

The gloves are far warmer than the gloves they replaced and the waterproof seems true. I ran a similar test to another reviewer and all 4 gloves passed with flying colors. They offer a feeling of security. Good fit, added protection of carbon on the knuckles, kevlar reinforced, padding around the wrist areas which many gloves neglect.

The only small cons I would mention is the cuff is a little short in my opinion and the straps could be longer. I have large wrists and have a difficult time fastening them over to the velcro pads as much as I would like.

I would rate them a 9.5 if I could offer half stars, but I think for many folks these gloves are a solid 10!


Warm and Waterproof, Great Feel, Run Small

Brian Wringer - 2/19/2009

I ride year-round, rain shine or cold (but not ice...). I have about a dozen pairs of winter gloves, but these are the warmest by far. They're also very waterproof, and control feel is the best I've experienced with any cool weather glove.

I will say that the XL and XXL sizes seem to run small. I'm a standard XL in every other glove on the planet, but I had to exchange for an XXL pair. So you may want to consider going up a size.

BMG exchanged them promptly and cheerfully -- great service!

Hello All, my gloves arrived in the my shorty after the holidays. I'm really happy with the design and quality of the gloves. They are padded and puffy just like any winter glove, but they look and feel like a sport or race glove. I didn't have any problems with fitting the gloves over the jacket sleeve as mentioned on the webbikeworld site. I wear a Triumph Melbourne Lea.Jacket for the foul wheather. I haven't road tested the glove yet, because of the wheather in Seattle. But I will real soon and will send another update. So far I'm happy with the product for the price not bad, not bad at all.

Awesome

Eddie - 11/20/2008

I'm a certified gear whore, I must own a dozen or so pairs of gloves, some of them are 3 and 4 times the cost of these. The Belstaff Thermosports are indeed waterproof, I test every pair of "waterproof" gloves by submerging them in the tub and by running high pressure under them for approximately 10 minutes. These gloves passed with flying colors. They keep my hands warm down to 20 degrees for up to 2hrs before my fingers begin to feel a chill (thats with an average speed of 80mph along the windy coast mind you, a shorter and slower commute would have better results).

The reason I give the gloves an 8 out of 10 is because the stitching could be better and so could the symmetry of the gloves.


Wow warm and 100% Waterproof

Jack in Greenland - 10/5/2008

I have worn these gloves in artic temperatures for a few month and have had them for more than a year, but had not had a chance to check their waterproof capabilities .. Then I dropped my keys in large puddle and fished them out with the gloves on. It then started to rain and I road home in the rain for 2 hours.. That's what I call WATERPROOF.. Thanks BMG Great Gloves
