    Got soaked the other day. Made worse more so by the fact that water dripped
    down my sleeves into my gloves, particularly my left glove (for some
    reason!). Suggested solutions please?

    Put your sleeves over your gloves in very wet weather.

    Really.

    Perzackerly.

    Mine dew, my "old" Belstaff's jacket sleeves were a tad too short for
    this, may be a problem yet for the OP...

    So when it starts to rain, pull over, pull trousers and sleeves out. Bugger
    when you're on a motorway though.

    Thanks, I'll check them out. I need new gloves anyway.

    They're called the Master 4 glove, IIRC.

    I've never found it to be a problem, although it does depend on the
    jacket. Provided there's a strap to tighten it at the wrist it should be
    OK.

    Ah right. Well I went to gloves and found the only master option in there.
    Tbh they don't look like the ones you talk of, but are the only ones with
    master as part of the range name.
