Plenty of great waterproof gloves that work in the winter but they just can't hang in there when it starts to rain.

THIS is a truly WATERPROOF glove Kinda like boots. You can have Water proof rubber boots, or hiking boots with "waterproof" liners. the youngstown have met my needs and for $35 bucks I think I'm getting my money's worth.
