Glo-gloves

These were mentioned on a local commuter board. (See:
http://www.gloglov.com/). Anyone here use them?

I do on occasion. I was thinking this morning that it was time to get
them out and put them in my commute bag. The upside is that they are
quite reflective and do make the hands very visible as you signal, etc.
The downside is that they are over-gloves, fitting over your standard
gloves. For me, much of the time, that is too thick and bulky ... and
warm.

I haven't seen them before but they look like a cool product. They also
seem to be blog spammers which means they won't be getting any business
from me.

Nope. But I sure could have used then whilst commuting after dark.'

You can always buy some retro-reflective tape and sew it onto your
gloves:

I've used the scotchlite sew-on tape before. It works well.

Alas, this would mean I'd have to actually sew.

Well, they do have a self-adhesive version... just be prepared to
re-apply often.

I've used the sew-on stuff on gloves, it doesn't have to be pretty
sewing, or precise machine stitches, crude hand stitching works just
fine.

Ahh, it's not that bad, a simple loop stitch around the edges is all it
needs. That's how I sew the ride patches onto my jacket, and they look
fine.
