What We Wear: Held Air n' Dry Gloves

Tested- these certainly have been! About 4,000 miles for these Air n' Dry gloves and they've been superb. I actually use these across three seasons to be honest, rather than just Summer as they're advertised.

My Held Air n' Dry gloves- 4,000 miles in and still the ones I reach for first...

I gave these a real baptism of fire- rode for an hour in the rain in them and THEN got the hose pipe on them. Not a drop passed through to my skin I'm pleased to say. If you choose 'vented' you'll never get caught out if it rains- simply switch to the gore-tex chamber! These really are two gloves in one :) Price: £160. For Gore-Tex 2 in 1 gloves that will (and have!) last & last is good value.

Two gloves in one! Move the tab up or down before slipping your hand in-
choose from full vented to full gore-tex!

These are now available in ladies sizes, also in short and long finger sizes!

It's the little things we like as well- check the picture below to see how the scotchlite reflectors work at night- I forced the flash on the second pic. This is in broad daylight- Not bad eh? :)
