I am looking for some kind of waterproof cover for my regular riding gloves. I am thinking of some rubber or nitrile gloves that are large enough to slip easily over the riding gloves. I think someone that was, or is, a member here was selling something they called "glove skins". I cannot find that by doing a web search. Any suggestions? TIA

I have a pair called monkey grip I believe. Got them in the auto section at walmart. Thin and water proof for summer.

BonS (who replied) is indeed the designer of Gloveskins and a VRCC member and supporter.
I have used a pair. They work. My only issue was it was a trick getting that second one in place. I settled with putting the first on the glove with it on my hand. Taking the first glove off with the gloveskin in place. Putting the second gloveskin on and then replacing the first glove with the skin already in place.
They do work and don't add any thickness to the gloves already on your hand.

Thanks BonS, Gloveskins is what I was thinking of. I was searching for "Glove skins" not "Gloveskins". Search engines can be so particular sometimes.
Fudgie, Thanks, I will check out WalMart
Willow, Thanks for that bit of info. I will probably be using that advise

You're right Jess. My marketing of the Glove Skins has been to dealers around the country rather than direct retail sales.

So where can we buy them since I can't find any dealers

In the USA call 800-725-6903 to find a motorcycle or power sports dealer near you. Outside the USA call 816-224-6000.

Within a mile of any WallyMart you have hundreds of free plastic bags that are useful in 25 different ways.  #1: Hand protection against wind, rain, snow, flying goose droppings, etc. Any other ideas...chime in.
