In Response To: Ah yes, the eternal search for the ulitmate gloves (Brian Nystrom)

: The best gloves I've found for moderate cold are the one's Sea Kayaker
: recommended after their last glove test: Stearns $15 gloves. They have a
: grippy palm (really) and will last a season or two. Like any 3mm neoprene
: glove, they will begin to leak after a few paddes, but that's just par for
: the course. Stearns also makes an elbow length neoprene glove that runs
: ~$20. They're quite dry as long as you're not rolling around. Eventually,
: they will leak, too.

Hit neoprene gloves with spray-on Plasti-dip to cut down on evaporative cooling. (Thanks to Bob 'Ootek' Warren for the tip).
