lobster mittens - Cycling Mob: Road Cycling, Mountain Biking and More

Does anybody know of a lobster mitt heavier than PI or Yoko? In the
mid 90's Cabela's sold a well insulated lobster mitten with a made in
Sri Lanka tag in it. They no longer stock this item and am desperate
to find a like product. The thin lobster mitts I find are not
adequate for riding eight-plus hours everyday (equine) where dexterity
makes life much nicer.

Try [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] Expensive yes, but
the warmest gloves you'll ever wear. On the bulky side so don't expect to
pick up any dimes while wearing them

I'm pretty sure Nashbar still markets one under their own brand name. I
have a pair I bought about 5 years ago and I am very happy with them. Well
worth the $16 I paid for them.
