Great gloves for the price
Gloves are very warm for the price. Keep my hands warm for 20 min ride in 20 degree weather. No abrasion resistance though.

good gloves
I bought these gloves after reading the reviews on Superstore. I have had many gloves that would not keep my hands warm. I have heated grips now but had bought these gloves prior to grips. I finally tested them last night without the heated grips and feel I wasted my money buying grips. My hands stayed warm all the way home. Temp was in the high 30's. It was not a long ride but was suprised on their effectiveness. I still do not know if they will hold up but will find out. Oh yeah, what a great price.

Good value
They feel cheap but they keep my hands warm. Good value.

Did the job
I went on a trip up to the mountains the day after I received these when it was about 38 degrees in the morning. These kept me warm for about 30 minutes, but once I got on the highway going 80 my hands got cold. I agree with an earlier review about the liner that keeps coming out every time you take them off. It can make it a little difficult putting them back on. For the money these gloves are great. They did the job keeping me warm when I was cruising at 60 and they kept my hands dry in the rain.

Warm
They fit great. Definitely water and wind proof. My only complaint is that if it’s a little warm and my hands sweat a little. The liner wants to come out when I take the glove off which causes it to be a pain to put back on. But I’d say 98% of the time it’s no problem.

Great glove for the price.
Lots of cold-weather motorcycle gloves can cost over $50 and some can top $100. These gloves were dirt cheap and they are absolutely the best bang for the buck. They seemed a bit bulky at first but I quickly got used to them. They have a long gauntlet which is great for being able to move around on the bike, switching positions, and still keep the cold air out. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a cost-effective glove for the colder months.

Great glove for the price. Very warm, & more importantly very flexible. Great for the Quad.

The best $20 glove around
These are the best gloves I have owned. I ride my motorcycle in weather dipping into the 30s (and occasionally into the 20s) and finding warm gloves has been a problem. I have a shelf in my garage filled with failures. Some cost $15 and some were $60 but none were warm enough to keep me from freezing. I also need to be able to move my fingers. The Mustang allows me the mobility I need and the warmth I desire. These are GREAT gloves and I highly recommend them. I have bought them for my wife and at least three of my riding buddies have now bought them.

Value gloves that get the job done
If you are looking for some warm gloves that get the job done, these are great. If you are looking for the best gloves out there, then chances are you will never even hear of these. They are light weight, comfy, good control feel, warm, windproof and waterproof. Can't really complain other then they would not protect very well in a crash... well I guess one crash would be ok, but they would be trash afterwards. Warm gloves, cheap, and get the job done. If you occasionally ride in the winter, these might be the ticket.

Nice Gloves
I bought these gloves to wear on my 30min commute to work in the mornings. I have ridden on days in the low 30s and they are good, but you still get cold finger tips. In the 40s they seem to keep you completely warm, and they are also surprisingly dexterous and easy to use controls in. No problems shifting or using the turn signals so far.

Great Winter Gloves
Early mornings are between upper 30s and low 40s and these gloves keep my fingers nice and warm during a 30-40 minute ride. My finger tips will get cool but these are a lot warmer than normal leather gloves. The fit is nice except that the thumbs are slightly long. These gloves still allow me to feel the controls. For the price, I would definitely but them again.

Great Cold Weather Gloves
These gloves are great for the money. They are a little bulky but keep my hands warm down into the twenties.

Excellent pair of Gloves
I liked my pair so much that I ordered a pair for my husband and son! GREAT for cold weather riding.
Jeffrey Mountain

Not a bad set of gloves
The Mustang gloves are a bit bulky; you lose some of your fingertip control. The inner liner does tend to bunch up some, so it takes a little time to get them straightened out before you can “take off” I have not had a problem putting them on or off, and the adjuster does indeed cinch them down. These are all things that keep me from giving many 5's
They are, however, generally warm (the main reason I bought them!) and the price was certainly right, so the cost -benefit certainly rates a 5 or higher. I would certainly recommend them to someone else looking for a full gauntlet, cold weather glove.

Olympia - 6000 Mustang I Gloves
Love them and if I use the heated grips my hands get too warm but I have only used the down to 39F, the wife lover hers too just for riding.

Olympia gloves
Overall an alright glove for the price. A bit bulky, but not uncomfortable to ride in. Have ridden in 25 degree weather to work (10 Miles) and I could feel the cold just slightly. Probably not good for longer rides below freezing though. Nylon shell I don't think will be very durable.

Olympia Mustang 1 Gloves - Very Warm
I previously used a glove with added acrylic inserts to try to keep my hands warm. It worked ok, but when I was on the bike longer than about 15 minutes, or the temperature was below about 40 degrees (F), they left a lot to be desired. So, I saw these on sale and decided they couldn't be any worse. Let me tell you, these are EXCELLENT gloves. My hands are never cold. I've ridden in 22 degree (F) temperatures and my hands are toasty. Now I notice how cold my legs are getting and will need to work on those, next!
Bottom line - Very warm and extremely low in price -- makes for a wonderful ride!

Olympia Mustang Glove Value
These gloves are a great value - well made, fit well, very good insulation, and very comfortable to boot! Temperatures in the low thirties will require grip heaters, but up above freezing, these stand on their own.
Get a pair before they realize how good a value they are and stop offering them so cheap!
Omer
Summerfield, FL
Outstanding value
Cons: Limited dexterity, but they don't hamper operation. They have the Olimpia label on them, but with care it can be removed - I am not a billboard for ads, but that's just me, you may want to leave the label on, it's small.
Pros: I applied Camp Dry to them before use, so they may have been waterproof already, but again that's just me. You can soak these gloves and your hands will stay bone dry and very warm. If it is not under 40F degrees your hands may sweat, these gloves are for cold weather. I rode 120 miles in the rain at 42F, and my hands were very warm, too warm, and these gloves repelled every drop of rain, they were not even wet.
The size was chart was perfect. Go ahead and buy these gloves. You'll be glad you did!

Perfect
These Gloves do exactly what they are made to do. For the price, There is no comparison. I live in the north east and there is no worse feeling then riding in cold weather and feeling your hands going numb in regular riding gloves. These gloves make the ride 100 times more comfortable (wont feel the cold) and fit great. I would buy them again in a heart beat. I can not comment on durability yet, because I've only had them for a few months, but I will be able to ride right into NOV with the guys.

I was looking for gloves to use in the cold mornings, and this really does the job, they are a little bulky, but you get use to it very fast.

great deal
Excellent protection from the elements in temperatures around 40. Not so much protection from asphalt :)
It is a value item, excellent for short winters.

Great cold-weather gloves for the price.
After riding through a couple rains and temps down into the twenties I feel I can accurately review these. The fit is just fine, the suede palms help grip, and the feel for the controls is muted but decent enough. Any temps below freezing do tend to hurt the fingertips at speed. The biggest downside is that the exterior fabric soaks up rain a bit. While the rain doesn't seem to reach my hands, the liner comes out a bit damp after any length of ride, making removal a chore and drying a must. Good cheap cold gloves.

Good gloves
Olympia 6000 Mustang 1 gloves are the best I've found after shopping for several months. I was most surprised by the price. I have a forty minute ride to work and ride in temperatures down to the low twenties. I tried several different gloves, mostly ski gloves in the fifty dollar range and they were a big disappointment. The Mustang glove is much better. On colder mornings I wear them with a liner which really helps. You can still operate all controls easily and the gauntlet keeps wind from blowing up my coat sleeve. I rated them high because for the money they are much better than expected.

So Far So Good
I'm been using these gloves for a week now, but I'm sure I got my money's worth. They are pretty warm, very comfortable, and fit great. They have a fairly large gauntlet that fits nicely over the sleeves of my awesome Tourmaster Transition Series 2 jacket. I've been riding in 30 something temps for a 25 minute commute at highway speeds, and my finger tips get cold, but it's tolerable and if I wiggle my fingers to get the blood going it's not so bad at all. I could not make it without the gloves. I think they would do better with a nylon mitten over-shell, but it doesn't have that. I haven't used them in the rain yet, but I think you'd get soaked unless you put your sleeves over the gloves. Definitely worth the price though!

I think they're a solid value.
I bought these based on the inexpensive price for cold weather riding. I've ridden in 35 degree weather, and my fingers have gotten cool, but not really cold. I haven't gotten them wet, so I can't comment on them being waterproof. I'm sure there are better gloves out there for cold weather, but considering the price, I think they're a solid value.

These are a really great pair of winter gloves. Perfect fit and they keep the hands nice and warm, while still offering good protection and a firm grip. I highly recommend these to anyone looking for winter riding gloves.

Great Value
I bought these gloves to wear this winter on my daily commute. So far, so good! We have had several mornings in the thirties, and my hands have remained comfortable for my 25 minute ride. The gloves have a large gauntlet that fits over the sleeves of my Tourmaster Transition Series II jacket. I've not used them in the rain, so I don't know how dry they will keep you. Overall, they are definitely worth the price!

Warmest m/c gloves I've ever had!
After years of wearing ski gloves in the fall and spring months, I decided to step up real insulated riding gloves. I tried a pair of my buddy's gloves, but his were over $100.00. I found the Olympia gloves here online and ordered them. Even on a 35-degree morning, I made it to work without my hands being cold at all! They are easy to get on and off, and they are waterproof. They are bulkier than uninsulated gloves (naturally), but I could grip the bars and use the controls with no problems. Even at twice the price, these gloves can't be beat! I order a second pair for when this pair wears out.

Good
Quite warm and does a fine job of keeping the water out until you drop your hands to your sides of course. The lining and insulation have a bit of free movement inside the shell giving a sense of not having a firm grip that takes some getting use to but overall a very good glove for the money.

They work!
I know I am in Northern Cal, but these do the job during my 40 degree mornings. They are easy to wear and I like the suede palms because I can clean off my visor when I fog it up. Don’t know about durability yet. Good gloves for the price.

This was a gift for my father. They fit him perfect and he was still able to maneuver with them on. They are exactly what he was looking for with warmth and comfort and they are a good length to tuck your long sleeve into.

Warm and Dry
These gloves work great!! I've worn them in pouring rain and temps down to about 20. They've always stayed dry. My fingers get a little cold every now and then but nothing to complain about. They're tricky to get back on if your hands are wet though.
