Not very waterproof!!!
The gloves are in their second season, and I'm not a big mile rider. They have never been machine washed and I've not crashed in them either. However, on friday their tea bag like construction came to the fore, and completely soaked up every snow flake for my 50 min commute. Not impressed!!

Can anyone recommend a good, waterproof winter glove that will last more than a year, but won't cost more than 40 quid?

My Sealskins are great - a bit too warm at times.

I got a pair of Altura gloves from Richardsons a year ago (sorry don't know the model name/number), they're great. They wear well and are waterproof but can get very warm in milder weather.
