Not so stylish, but a third the price, and well-suited for winter driving.
Marty may not approve, but if you insist on top down motoring when it's nasty cold out there, these will get you through. Wind proof, flexible, and the palms grip well - a big deal with our slippery, polished wooden wheels. Cheap enough to just leave in the car, so you've got 'em when you need 'em.
The ones I got two years ago are no longer listed, but these look close enough.
With road rage being what it is today, you need to be ready to throw down a gauntlet every now and then. Now, you will be.
Marty needs to chime in here
LL Bean's idea of "Driving Gloves" - Lane can get a pair in Red to match his car when he's up there this Christmas! Not as "cost-concious" as Stan's example, but they're "Bean's", after all, and will last fo-evah!
Nice. I use Elma Men's Touchscreen gloves from Amazon. Cashmere FTW. I only paid $35 or so for mine.
How are they in the summer too hot?
All this talk about men's accessories reminds me a great line from one of John Sandford's Lucas Davenport novels. The governor of Minnesota is talking to Davenport, who is a clothes horse. Davenport asks the gov about his socks, which Davenport likes. Gov replies: "I'm going to give you some fashion advice, Lucas. Your accessories should be slightly gay. This includes socks, belts, ties, shoes, and pajamas. Not completely gay, but slightly."
Lucas replies: "I knew that. I never articulated it, but I knew it at some level."
Not that that's a bad thing.

Since I am a know nothing in regards to fashion, at one time or another I sought the advise of a gay man who I thought had excellent fashion sense. I've done this for other things as well like a prized painting that I have of Jeff Beck's Guitar Shop album cover. I could not for the life of me come up with the right frame for this. It was some queer eye for this straight guy that pulled it together...

$56 for lambskin. Incredibly soft and grippy. Adequate for SD "cold" weather, and not terribly hot in the summer.
