Cosd Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 That's a BIG budget for gloves. I tried loads on and I just find most where just too thick, even the thin ones. It's just a personal preference but I like the fingerless type because I find it easier when flicking the safety catch on or off and changing barrel selection. If you haven't tried fingerless before, they still keep your hands warm. I use 'Thinsulate' gloves which you can get from many outdoor type shops, they are thin, warm and have rubber on the palm for grip; There are many variations available and won't cost anywhere near your budget.

Yeah i got some fingerless thinsulate jobbies from Blacks, £10. Used then for the first time on Saturday, hands were getting cold, stuck then on, nice and toastie shortly after, it also rained later on and i think they are splash proof too so they didn't soak up all the rain. The small grips on the palm helped with my 'pumping action'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WGD Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Sealskinz also do a couple of types of glove, I have't tried them but they look the business. WGD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The small grips on the palm helped with my 'pumping action'. I think they are splash proof, but even if you are in heavy rain for a while, they are so thin they don't get heavy with water and they don't lose any grip at all. They are £10, I found mine in the Sale at one of these outdoor/walking type shops for £3.50 so I bought a couple of pairs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEFTY478 Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 If you're not looking for serious, cold whether protection (just keep the wind off, stuff), then I've been using golf gloves for the last couple of years. Very light, thin, cheap and loads of grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webber Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I recently bought some Deerhunter "pacha" gloves from the deep blue website. They were around £18.50. Wind and waterproof, just the job. I wore them for the first time on Saturday, superb. I wish I had bought another pair for spares. I do tend to have a habit of misplacing gloves. webber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pegasus bridge Posted November 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 another vote for sealskinz. I use them and are far the best ones i've ever used do you use the 'shooting' ones - with the removeable trigger finger? or the 'hunting' ones ? cheers!

the_commoner Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 riding gloves, £ 4 from decathlon, off jct 26, they do the trick for me, dry out very quickly, i am sure for your budget you probably will be able to get something more dedicated that arguably will perfrom better but from a value point of view i find them fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
