Gloves for colder weather

All great suggestions! The great thing about the SWIX gloves that I forgot to mention is that they have long cuffs at the wrists, so no more drafts up your sleeves. Truly the best gloves around..

Yup, I wear Swix XC ski gloves as well as soon as I need something warmer than shorties. That's mostly because they're versatile and cheapish and I already have them for skiing, but I'm also happier with them than the cycling specific gloves I've tried. When it gets really cold I go to lobster gloves, I have thinnish ski ones from Swix and thicker bike ones from PI.

Was looking into this at our sports store today as our days will be getting colder soon too.

Which would be better for cold but not freezing temperatures (not riding when it is way too cold). But a nice fall ride - even without sun can be fun.

I have a whole combo of things I wear. I have the lighter weight Terry full fingered gloves for temps below 55 or so. I generally like to wear my Ibex liners under these and let it go at that, down to about 45. But, I also have a pair of Mavic men's mid weight thermal gloves in a size small that fit me perfectly. I can wear them in the low 40's. I generally don't ride when it's colder than 35, although I have. I do have a pair of PI Amphibs, and they are extremely warm. But once, my glove got caught in the shifter and I haven't worn them since. My dexterity feels compromised in them, but I may try again. I bought a pair of lobster gloves, but I couldn't deal with them; I don't do well well with changes in how things feel/work, so I gave them to my son, who has little hands for a guy. He commuted through the winter one year, and he used them.
