Our customers say…
Customers appreciate the comfort and waterproof features of these gloves but offer mixed reviews on their warmth. While some find them adequately warm for various temperatures, others feel they fall short in colder conditions, particularly below 4-5°C. The gloves are noted for their good fit and useful features like conductive patches and wipers. However, some criticisms focus on the thickness affecting dexterity and minor issues with sizing, particularly thumb fit. Overall, they're praised for quality and design but may not be ideal for extremely cold weather.

Warm hands
26 March 2025 by John C
As a motorcycle instructor I work in all sorts of weathers and my search for warm waterproof gloves has been ongoing! The Richa city forested had the right balance of comfort and also control of the instruments!
I ve got all out winter gloves which give give very little feedback from the controls, however these gloves kept me warm, dry, and in full control!
A great spring glove!
As ever sportsbikeshop! Are my go too online retailer.
No hassle, professional company!!!

Ideal for fall/mild winter
24 February 2025 by Siergiej S
Tested with a naked bike in 5*C weather when going to work. They will keep you warm enough. Waterproofing wasn't tested yet, but I doubt it would fail.
Very comfortable and easy to put on. Quality is amazing.
Gripe - questionable sizing. The chart said M, but they were too loose, replaced with S and those fit well. Med worker, usually all (nitrile etc.) S gloves are too tight and M gloves fit like... a glove, not this time though. Order two closest sizes and return one pair would be my suggestion.

Convenient
13 February 2025 by Richard B
I bought these based on a bit of research and a number of reviews, most of which praised them highly.
I was looking for a pair of short cold/cool weather gloves, to save the faff of getting some longer, bulkier ones under or over the cuffs of my jacket.
These Richa gloves fit the bill nicely.
They are a good fit, comfortable, warm and, so far, completely waterproof.
They are easy to get on and off and fit under the sleeve of my jacket very well.
If the weather is very cold, I need my heated grips. But at most times my hands are kept comfortably warm.
Overall, a good purchase. I can see these gloves serving me very well for a long time.

Richa City Gloves
10 December 2024 by Mike W
I thought at first they were a bit bulky but soon wear in and soften. Kept hands warm in 5 degree ride with heated grips on so overall I'd recommend them but remember they're a short cuff so make sure your jacket has long sleeves.. Excellent service from SBS as always.

Very good gloves

Good piece of kit, good quality however the lining feels as though it will come out if your hands are wet or sweaty when taking the gloves off, so need to be extra careful

Very good gloves.

Very good gloves. Warm and definitely waterproof. Bought for a tour round Scotland and had a couple of days of rain. They kept my hands warm and dry.
Great service from sportsbikeshop as usual.

Could be better
13 April 2024 by Jason C
Good gloves so far, but 2 annoyances are, 1) fingers could be longer [taking a larger size means too much material bulk] and, 2) feels like in the left glove there is too much seam inside the curve between thumb and index finger [starts to feel uncomfortable after riding for an hour]. Maybe a dodgy glove as the right seems to be okay.
Not tested yet for WPness.

Fantastic purchase
01 March 2024 by Darryll W
As I already have and highly recommend the Richa Goretex suit, I purchased the City glove after trying on various other styles and brands... I prefer the sporty street look rather than the bulky adventure / touring as I always seem to struggle with the cuffs on the jacket.
Wore then a couple of times so far, once on a 2 1/2 journey home in torrential motorway rain and they performed amazingly well. Highly recommend....

Good all rounders
25 February 2024 by Paul H
I bought these with the comute to work in mind, as my Richa Arctics are a bit cumbersome on shorter rides and dexterity wise for reaching for keys to open up gates etc. Definitely not disappointed with the city gloves as they are easy to get on and off and offer slightly more dexterity than the Arctics, they have what feels like a very comfy fleece type lining that keeps the wind and cold out a treat. The touch sensitive fingers allow you to operate your mobile & Tom Tom which I also find useful. I haven't worn these in any heavy downpours yet, but I'm sure they will hold out in any maelstrom if they are true to the usual Richa standard. All in all I think these will be a good all rounder and would recommend them for sure

Toasty gloves!
22 February 2024 by Stephen M
My new Richa city gore tex gloves are great! They look really good , kept my hands dry in a downpour yesterday and didn't let my pinkies get cold. SPORTSBIKESHOP prices were super competitive as usual. Thank you again for an easy purchase.

Very comfortable
24 December 2023 by Anonymous
Once I got them on and set off found them very comfortable and worked fine with touchscreen on satnav! Haven't experienced rain as yet but they're Goretex so shouldn't be a problem! Got heated grips with extended handguards and they seemed very warm in 3*! Overall very happy especially with cuffs as my jacket has elasticated cuffs so can't get long gloves

Really pleased.
13 November 2023 by Neville G
Only had these for a couple of weeks. Use them for the daily commute, an hour there and an hour back. Seem warm but still a little early in the year to give them a real test. Coolest it's been in the mornings is 4 deg. But they were fine. Had some really bad rain and hands have stayed dry. Not the quickest gloves to dry out. Got wet in the morning and they are still damp when I go home after a full day in the office. Just to clarify, it's the outside of the glove that's damp, inside is bone dry. Size wise, just went with Richas' sizing chart and the fit well. Long glove/short glove is subjective, I like these as they fit perfectly under the cuffs of my Oxford Stormland jacket, which is another great bit of kit by the way.

Comfortable Gloves
12 December 2022 by Graham H
I'm now on my second pair of these gloves. If you like to tuck your gloves under your jacket, these are ideal. They are the most comfortable gloves I've ever had. They've never let me down, and have never leaked. My first pair are still in use, after over 4 years, and I bought the second pair only in case Richa stop making these gloves. I use them all year round, in conjunction with my heated grips, and only the tips of my fingers get a little cold, when the temperatures approach freezing. Excellent service from Sportsbikeshop, as always.
