I’d had my eye on a pair of heated gloves for a while having been recommended Keis by the lads at work. I took the plunge a couple of months back and although they’re pricey I’m pleased to say they’re worth every penny.
Fit wise they compare well to other gloves I’ve had; I’m a medium in others and was a medium in Keis. The gloves themselves aren’t too bulky and provide good dexterity. I can open and close my jacket pocket to get to keys/work passes without having the faff of taking one off.
They look the part and are very comfortable. I’ve used them without turning them on and found them to be plenty warm enough in chilly temperatures. But why not have them on?! Even on the lowest setting it feels like you’re mid-summer enjoying some lovely warm air surrounding your fingers.
I’ve been ‘lucky’ enough to test these gloves through some terrible weather this past week; lashing rain for 30+ minutes, cold temperatures (2 degrees shown plus wind chill at 70mph) followed by a lovely bit of freezing fog this morning & found them to be more than up to the job.
No leaks, really comfortable and if anything a bit too warm on the hottest setting. Mid motorway I knocked them down to medium and enjoyed the warmth they provided all the way into work.
Keis heated gloves….where have you been all my riding life?!
Lastly, thanks to Keis who provided some great customer service when my first pair had an issue on the left glove (wasn’t getting as warm as the right). Easy returns process and fast dispatch of the replacement gloves. I barely survived the week riding without them, slumming it back with non-heated gloves!
Those with a blue light card; don’t forget to contact Keis about a good discount code.
