It's not often that you'd consider buying four pairs of gloves at once, but that's what you get in the Dissent 133 Ultimate Cycling Glove Pack. I’ve often used an extra inner with my deep winter gloves, and last year I’d also enjoyed superlight waterproof overmitts, so the chance to try a set that was specifically designed to fit together was attractive.
Dissent 133 is a brand from The Rider Firm, of the Hunt Wheels stable, and like the parent product, the gloves set is a good idea strongly marketed. For £109 you get a waterproof/windproof outer (£55 individually), a showerproof/windproof outer (£30), a knitted Cordura inner (£20) and a silk liner (£10). And a nice box. The idea is that you can mix and match them – including using the outers by themselves – in any conditions from 15C / 60F and bright, to -5C / 23F and stormy.
