Do not be fooled
I went for my first ride in the rain today with these "waterproof" gloves. They are NOT waterproof. Will be returning them tomorrow. Everything else about the glove is nice.

Teknic Freeway Water Proof Gloves
Unsatisfactory - The first time I used the gloves there was a light rain - I went 200 km, my hands were soaking after 15 minutes. I could squeeze my fist and water would run out the foam insulation - with wet hands I had difficulty getting the gloves back on and I expect they will not hold up. My hands were very cold riding in 12 C temperatures. I like the look of the gloves but am very disappointed in them.

Nice glove for waterproof protection, finger fit is a bit small may want to order one size bigger than normal. They are very light and are comfortable even in warm weather

Warm.
Admittedly, I didn't look at the sizing chart, but I think I read that getting a size larger than what you expect is probably a wise idea. I'd agree. The liner moves around some in the gloves, but they're nice and warm, and as an Oregonian, the waterproof serves perfectly. In slightly cold weather they make my hands REALLY hot, so a pair of liner gloves can be helpful to wick sweat.

Great, especially the waterproof part and they are very warm. Glad I purchased them with all the winter weather we've had.

Teknic - Freeway Waterproof gloves
Well of course since I've bought theses gloves it hasn't rained a drop ..... I guess that’s good and bad. So I can't say much about how good they are being waterproof. If they’re anything like the Teknic jacket I got they'll be fine!! I can say after a 9-1/2 hour ride from Daytona Beach where the weather dropped from in the lower 90's to the lower 50's going home they work extremely well blocking the wind and helping keep my hands warm, I think if you live in the South they'll be a great winter glove , for the summer they'll do fine " I'm sure " keeping the water off and out of the sleeve of my jacket, but might be a little warm. I bought a large pair because I like my glove to fit tight and they did everywhere but in the length of my fingers. They run a little long there but not too bad. I might try to find me a pair for the summer time and keep these for winter riding... over all I'm happy with them and would buy them again.

Teknic Freeway Waterproof Gloves
Have only used them for two short rides thus far, neither of which were in rain so I can't judge how waterproof they really are. They fit very nicely and are extremely comfortable. A great looking glove that seem to be very good quality. Long enough to reach back over cuffs on riding jacket sealing out all drafts. Even though they are advertised as uninsulated, they feel thicker than regular riding gloves giving the impression that they are insulated. Probably just the liner but I rode 2 hours in 45 degrees with nothing but these on my hands and they were complete comfortable. I think that would probably be uncomfortably hot over 65 degree or so. This characteristics actually works better for me since I detest a cold rain. If it's over 70 degrees or so, I don't really care if my hands get wet in the regular warm weather gloves. I'm looking forward to testing the waterproof feature.

Perfectly suited for the conditions I purchased them for. They fit a little big (or I just got too large a size), but that leaves room for a pair of thin liner gloves that help alleviate the sweaty hand issue. Excellent purchase. Very warm.

Very comfortable and warm. We rode this past weekend and were hit with heavy, sustained rains. My hands stayed warm and dry the whole time.

Teknic- Freeway NON-Waterproof Gloves
I live in South Louisiana so we get some pretty heavy rain. Today happened to be one of those days. I just got back and my gloves are totally saturated inside and out. They are NOT waterproof.
