Our Two Cents
The WR-2 glove is a comfortable waterproof glove that would be great for touring or commuting. The price is a bit higher than most gloves of its kind, but genuine Gore-Tex is the mid-liner used to provide protection from rain. Gore-Tex adds to the price but it is considered superior to other type liners. The glove has a full gauntlet that can be pulled over the sleeve of your jacket making it easy to stay dry. There is a soft fleece lining in the gloves making them very comfortable, and the palm is reinforced with a synthetic leather for added abrasion protection. There is also some thin padding on the back of the hand providing some impact protection. An elastic stretch panel at the wrist gives the glove a good secure feel.
