Re: [RBW] Rivendell Goat Gloves

[Ray Varella]

Leah,
   If you showed up with hot broth on a cold day, I wouldn't care if you 
were in a housecoat and slippers. 

I don't have any experience with the goat gloves but I used a similar deerskin 
glove for motorcycle gloves down to the 30s and they were fine. 

My niece used to tease me for bringing juice boxes when we went riding 
together, one day her friend went with us and my niece tried to clown me about 
the juice boxes...until her friend thought they were a great idea. 

Your kids are lucky.

[RBW] Rivendell Goat Gloves

[Joe Bernard]

Leah, I've been using these "gardening gloves" from Riv for many years. 
Granted, I live in California where 50 degrees is considered cold weather, so I 
can't vouch for them on rides below the 42 degrees Riv claim to be their limit. 
They fit kinda big/loose if you have small hands like me, and start out kinda 
stiff 'til you work them in. They're fine for sorta-clumsily pushing thumbies 
or bar-ends, maybe not so good with Rapid Fire or brifters (which I know you 
don't use).

I would not pretend not to be related.  That mom looks like a badass, and 
every 10 and 8 year old is empowered when their mom is a badass.  Hell, I'm 
47 and I still feel my mom is a badass, and that feeling continues to serve 
me well.

Re: [RBW] Rivendell Goat Gloves

[Will]

I've been riding with leather work gloves for years. If you ever have to 
put the bike down, it is really nice to have significant hand protection 
(been there). The ones in your link from Riv look nice. 

You can get similar at any hardware store as well.

Re: [RBW] Rivendell Goat Gloves

[islaysteve]

Leah, I've lately been trying some cold (or cool) weather riding and what I've 
found to be surprisingly nice and versatile are my dress leather gloves, left 
over fom when I actually went to work.  They are soft leather, lined with 
cashmere.  From Bloomindales.  (I know, but they were on sale after the 
holidays.). Anyway, they are good at least down to 40 degrees, and probably 
lower.  They are not tight, and I think the extra airspace helps insulate.  
Leather blocks the wind.  Perhaps you already have something similar around.  
Just my 2 cents. Cheers, Steve

Re: [RBW] Rivendell Goat Gloves

Well, no. I want them for riding. I initially read the “good grip” part of the 
description as good grip for riding - probably because it’s what I’m looking 
for. After your response I re-read it and laughed out loud. I think you are 
right.

[RBW] Rivendell Goat Gloves

[LeahFoy]

Does anyone have these: 
https://www.rivbike.com/products/goat-gloves?variant=23335673921

I have a cheap pair of velvet gloves that are worn thin. I need a new pair and 
thought I'd look at Riv first. These won't win me any beauty contests, but if 
they were really wonderful, I'd just as soon give Riv the business. There are 
no reviews and only one photo. Anyone have and love these? 

Thanks!
