    Not winter gloves, already a thread on that.

    I had these HG gloves when I started out.

    Tore the palms out of them when I had my first spill.

    Also tore the palms out of a friends pair on my second spill! haha. Sorry!

    Other than that, they were good gloves. Goretex for the rainy days, the knuckles were nicely protected.

    but ~120e or so.

    Right now I have a cheap pair of "goretex" gloves, no protection anywhere, just a light pair, pretty **** in the heavy reain.

    I have a proper pair of goretex winter gloves but too big to wear everyday.

    knox gloves for the track and warm day spins.

    So I am in need of a good solid pair of daily commuter/every-day-use bike gloves.

    With protection.
    Water-proof (goretex would be ideal but sheltex considered if that's the consensus)
    Reasonably priced.

    ^^is it a case of pick 2 out of 3?

    What size?
    Louis have a really good deal on size L Vanucci at the moment.
    And the Held 2047 are pretty reasonable as well.

    8 in a glove.

    Which can be a M or a S depending on the glove!

    Them HG gloves are the ones I am currently using for the winter they are a grand glove.

    What about the HELD AIR and DRY you can use them both in the summer and winter?
