Gerbing heated gloves

Finally going to break down and buy some heated gloves.  :D

I wonder if anyone can tell me if they have the newer Gerbing T5's , I was all set to order the G3's when I saw this newer model. The gauntlet is longer, but they look a little bulkier to me then the G3's.
I don't like a real thick glove and seem to think the G3 is less bulky.

Anybody who can update me on this?

Thanks
Bill

Just bought a pair of the G3's. i have never had, nor have I seen the T5's... so my opinion can only be limited to the G3's.

First, I hate gloves... won't wear them unless it is raining big time, or cold as all get out. On a recent ironbutt x2 run, I broke down and bought Gerbings because I was riding in the middle of the night and it got COLD!

Anyway, as a glove hater, i can tell you that the G3's were not at all bulky feeling, relative to their size and thickness. Mind you, I am not going to be picking up loose change anytime soon while wearing them, but I didn't feel like I was riding the Valk wearing boxing gloves either. The gauntlets are long enough to keep the wind out of my sleeves... overall it was a good experience.

Now, hopefully somebody with the T5's will chime in...

G-3's here too. I like them......just bought them in January 2011 but used them several times before warm weather.  I don't like bulky gloves either but these are not that bulky.  Even with my arthritic knuckles they were OK !!

I was looking at the T5's myself.  I wasn't aware of the G3's.  I'll have to look into those.  However, I'd also like to hear from anyone that knows about the T5's too.

not sure what mine are...bought them last year....the gauntlet go'es half way up my arm to the elbow...fits over my jacket sleeve...I love them...I have nerve damage in right hand and it gets real cold before the other hand...so alot of the time I unplug the left and just keep the right warm for me ...that works....at first they felt bulky....but got use to it real quick with warm hands
