Bilt Demon Waterproof Gloves

I like Bilt as a brand. Relatively inexpensive and you get a solid product. These gloves perform very well for the price. I ride a 2011 XL1200C Custom. At first these gloves were very bulky, but then I broke them in and they are much more comfortable. I've ridden in downpours and in drizzles and my hands only got slightly damp in the downpour. The protection on these gloves seems solid. I would buy them again in a heartbeat.

PROS: Quality for the price, Weather resistant, Good protection, Warm

CONS: bulky, Not 100 waterproof

BEST USES: Wet Weather Riding, Cool to cold riding

I've had them about a week and have used them a couple of times. I have two other pair of bilt gloves and the XL fit great, so I bought a 2XL for these to wear an inner liner if needed and they are tight fitting but I assume they will break in. So far in 50 degree mornings they have been very warm. Good armor and feel like they will hold up in a crash.

PROS: Well Padded, Weather Resistant

I am currently living in windy Oklahoma. The wind here, especially in the cold, made the ride very uncomfortable and my hands icy. These gloves keep my fingers nice and toasty for the whole ride. They did not restrict my hand movement nearly as much as other winter gloves. I highly recommend these gloves for cold weather riding.

PROS: Well Padded, Weather Resistant, Snug Fit, Comfortable, Well Insulated, Wind resistant

CONS: Restricts Movement, Bulky

BEST USES: Cold Weather, Bad Weather

Good glove, Sizing is so so..there was an extra inch of length in the thumb on both gloves. Was never able to test them to see if it was actually a warm glove on the street. The gauntlet style of the glove prevented me from being able to wear the glove with my ICON jacket..The gauntlet cuff was too bulky for the sleeve to fit over the cuff and the gauntlet opening was too small for me fit the sleeve into the cuff like a typical gauntlet glove is supposed to be worn with a jacket.

PROS: Good buid, Good price, Warm

Bought from the store and were ok for cool weather riding. Fit is snug for the size indicated. If you buy these, definitely try them on first rather than order online. Advertised as "waterproof," they soaked through very quickly. When I got inside after two hours of riding, I squeezed 1/3 cup of water out of EACH glove. The abrasion strip over the knuckles was fuzzing after one day of wear - without any scraping or contact with hard surfaces. Going back to the store for my money back. Do not buy these gloves.

PROS: Well Padded

CONS: Poor Fit

BEST USES: Short Trips, Street Riding

great protection only bad thing hands freeze in below 50

PROS: Comfortable, Weather Resistant, Well Padded, Breathable, Snug Fit

BEST USES: Street Riding, Short Trips, Safety, Long-Distance Traveling

I've put nearly 200 miles of city/rural commuting on theses gloves so far. Comfort-wise they're decent, they're warm as well, temps here have been in the low 40's when I ride home from work and they keep my hands warm. They fit a size or two small, so order larger than you actually wear. I am extremely disappointed in the lack of grip these provide! They use the same smooth leather on the palms that they use on the rest of the glove.

CONS: Poor Grip

BEST USES: Street Riding, Short Trips, Bad Weather, Long-Distance Traveling

I use this product on winter.

PROS: Well Padded, Comfortable, Weather Resistant

Bought this on a recommendation from a CG staff. It's an OK glove but I would not buy it if I could do it over again. The 2 things that kill this glove are the liner and the odd sizing in the thumb & pinky. First off, if your hands sweat all the time like me regardless of weather conditions, then skip this glove. It is an absolute annoyance trying to take these gloves off and on once your hands have sweat on them. The liner does not breathe at all. So when you try to fit them back on, it is just aggravating. The liner moves around and I have to spend some good 10-15 mins fitting them back on my hands. The length of the pinky and thumbs are odd as well. The thumbs especially is much longer for an XL and it's another annoyance when trying to use the signals. However, once on, it does block the wind well and keeps your hands moderately warm. For the price I guess it's an okay glove but I would shell out a little more dough and get a higher quality glove. After using them for a while I just can't recommend them to anyone.

PROS: Comfortable, Well Padded

CONS: Poor Fit, Bulky

BEST USES: Short Trips, Street Riding, Bad Weather

I had bought this glove as a dedicated rain glove after reading it was "waterproof" in the store. Worked well in all the light rain I've been riding with, but after my first heavy rain I will not be using again. After about 15 minutes in substantial rain, my gloves were swollen with water and soaked all the way through. I had ridden to work, and after my 12 hr shift the gloves were still soaked! Nearly froze my hands off on the icey ride home because those were the only gloves I had brought with me.

These gloves are not water proof. They are more water resistant than my other riding gloves, but they will absorb water. Once they get wet, they stay wet for a long time. Would not recommend, I will not be returning to the BILT line again.

PROS: Well Padded

CONS: Bulky
