This time it will be the first time to use GORE-TEX Gloves, but when trying on other manufacturer's GORE-TEX Gloves and comparing it, KUSHITANI felt better feeling warmer and purchased.
It is usually L Size, but this product was quite good in L so I made it to LLSize. I think that there is no problem with this as Size. Purchase is the impression of trying to run in the temperature of 15 ° C to -6 ° C in December 2016.
What I most want for GORE-TEX Gloves "Warmth" Although it is not particularly dissatisfied if the temperature is over 4 to 5 ° C. However, even with Grip heater the temperature is 2 ° C 50 km / H I felt that the thumb, index finger and middle finger of the three fingers slightly cooled in about 30 minutes of traveling. (Range that can manage for some reason) However, at around 0 ° C, the fingertips were completely cold, and the part of the back of the hand also became cool. My hands were cold and painful at temperatures below that.
Because I was expecting too much for GORE-TEX Gloves, the price was 18,500 yen, but the cold weather performance was disappointing because there was no difference between the cheaper Winter Gloves and the Large I was using earlier.
As a discontent
● Anti-cold performance is similar to ordinary Winter Gloves.
● Velcro Belt of the wrist part is too short, and when you put the cuffs of Wear into Gloves there is only the extent that Limit can be stopped.
● If you do not pay attention when pulling out your hands Liner (Back fabric) Is pulled by hand and turned inside out. (Because of Floating structure ??)
● Somewhat expensive
As a satisfaction point
● Leather is very soft and immediately adapts to hands.
● It may not be easy to handle when operating Blinker switch etc..
● Built-in and feel of Liner are good and feel good.
● Parts that operate Axel and Lever do not slip.
● Smartphone screen Touch can be done.
● KUSHITANI's Leather Gloves so you can repair with KUSHITANI's Shop.
etc. There are many satisfaction points that you can think of KUSHITANI.
Unfortunately we have not used it in the rain yet so Waterproof nature (Water permeability) I do not know about it,
Because I am Gore-Tex, I do not want to worry..
Without excessive expectation for the cold weather performance, Knuckle guardetc. In combination.
If you want KUSHITANI fans, texture and Waterproof nature Recommendation.
Also, even if it breaks, I think that it can be used for a long time if it can be repaired.
