Like searching for the holy grail decent window cleaning gloves, with waterproof ones your hands up smelliest like a dead rat.

And the warmer ones apparently waterproof end leaking like a sieve

If you can clean with hot water that helps your hands a bit. Also if you wear enough clothes elsewhere your body retains more heat which all in all helps blood flow and heat transfer to your hands. I wear a t-shirt, long sleeve thermal t-shirt, jumper, jacket, scarf, hat,

Long johns, trousers, sometimes two pairs of socks if really cold. Never needed gloves and my hands never feel cold because the rest of my body is an oven

Used sealskinz for years now and they’ve never let me down. Not often I wear em though and when I do it’s only for an hour or so in the mornin to take the edge off. Probs get 2/3 years out of em. Can see your point if your wearin em everyday. Bin wearing sealskinz socks religiously for a few years now and never had wet feet since. My mate swears by the unger gloves but I’ve never tried em so can’t really say.

Tried and searched for years when I was trad and only found one reliable and waterproof answer.

Marigolds with glove liners inside.

If you rip one, penny’s to replace, unlike sealskins, ungers etc. Plus lots of dexterity when detailing and giving change etc
