I've not tried that brand of neoprene gloves, but, I have tried others, a few years ago and they left the tips of fingers feeling a bit cold.
That seems a good price for those shown though.
My neoprene gloves you can quite literally run your hands under the tap without them leaking.
I think there from the same people who make the water proof socks [ seal skinz?].

I have used army gortex,wrist length, leather gloves for some time. However a quick check on e bay did not show any.
They tend to be very waterproof and warm enough for trail riding.
This time of year I start off wearing them then change to a thin mx pair as body temp starts to rise on a few hard trails then change back if it it starts to cool down later in the day.
They are a little bit thicker than I would like but when my hands are that cold I don't care.
