    Insulated rubber gloves as they don't get wet.

    I use those heavy black rubber chemical gloves sold at most truckstops. Wear a pair of the brown knitted cloth gloves inside. Fingers get pretty cold but stay dry. Used to use dishwashing rubber gloves but they tear too easy.

    If it's not wet but just cold, I wear a pair of welding gloves.

    I just use plain old cheap leather gloves in XL and then just use the brown knitted liners gloves. That way when i need to take off the gloves to get a better grip I just slip off the leather glove. . i should probably use some insulated ones, which i used to buy, but I'm too stubborn (cheap) to spend the money. I get a case of 50 pairs at a wholesale place for $25... Well Lamont brand
