happy to oblige)
I think two big variables come into play:
-How comfortable is the experience?
-Do you have air conditioning?
When I play uncomfortable games (and I do get queasy easy) than I will get hot no matter the temp is in my apt.
Normally when sitting in my apt I normally like it to be around 75 F. When playing roomscale or any intense game I prefer to crank it to at least 70 F otherwise I will sweat right away. I have noticed after intense sessions of SPT, or Audioshield I will take the rift off and put it back on to an uncomfortable sweaty feel.
Because of this I purchase a simple Halo doorag from amazon - pic here (http://imgur.com/xOTuoM8) - this protects it from sweat as well as the lenses from the hair. Being that I am developing a lot of the time I am taking the rift on and off and on and off so the protection is MUCH needed to protect the longevity of the lenses. Here is a link to the page I bought it from - https://www.amazon.com/Halo-Headbands-HPROTEXBLACK-PARENT-Headband-Sweatband/dp/B00SGS9PI6 - check that out or any other $2 one from wal-mart)
The easiest things to do to protect your rift or vive is to play in cool areas and wear head gear!!! :D

Touchscreen Gloves
Not the warmest but I prefer gloves that are less bulky. Excellent touchscreen ability and good use of grippers to not drop my phone.
u/KimJongPooonn u/comedypros Thanks guys! He was actually too lazy to do make it, I made it for him lol.
-Red sweatshirt is easy to find, I bought mine from Walmart for $10
-I bought the blue sweatpants w/ red stripes at Goodwill but this seems to be the closest to what he's wearing
-Technically Tobey wears white/red soccer goalie gloves but I wanted him to feel comfortable holding and grasping stuff so I bought these cycling gloves instead for $12
-For some reason he switched his shoes that was in his backpack but he's supposed to be wearing some red hi-top Converse shoes. Tobey actually wears hi-top Nike Blazers similar to these but converse were easier to find lol.
-Lastly I grabbed a large cardboard, cut it into an exact rectangle size to fit the sweatshirt, then asked my friend to draw the famous Spidey logo. Once she drew it, I carefully cut out the spider/webbing (which was very strenuous and tedious), then spray painted it on top of the sweatshirt.
I realize these are not traditional but they’ve held up well in cold wet conditions and have been durable. Fox Head Men's Forge CW Gloves, Black, Medium https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UBV0RYW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_LXF-BbWX1FSGJ

Even fingerless gloves is OK for simracing, something like this is fine: https://www.amazon.com/GEARONIC-TM-Fashion-Motorcycle-Shockproof/dp/B016CKWHSO/ref=sr_1_4?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1485522211&sr=1-4&keywords=cycling+gloves
Depends on what you want to spend I love my sealskins and have some Louis Garneau but find they get too warm within 5 mins of cycling
Saying that I also have 2 cheap pairs of FDX Winter gloves from amazon and they are as good i think windproofing is the most important bit
I use cheap cycling gloves. They soak up the sweat without taking away the feeling.
Something like these.

Just don't get the padded palm ones.
Yesterday I got my only black Friday package with a lifting belt and some silly new gloves and I can't wait to test them out today with deadlifts!
I have half finger gloves too, but the knurling on the barbell hurts my fingers even more when they're only half covered, I guess because of the inconsistency? I just lost my old pair of similar gloves, so I'm hoping these are a fine replacement!
I have these I bought locally and the finger pairs are not separated. Same for the Pear Izumi ones I had previously.
Agree that separated finger mittens are useless, but that's not what I'm taking about.
These guys. Could have used a little more padding on a ride like this but they've been great for everything else.
OK, I will try my best to give you the best info possible.
- Gear you need to have:
Well, personally I would also recommend having good protection. ALWAYS wear a helmet, so buy a good looking one so u feel happy with it ), it can actually really save your life so be fair and get one. A pair of gloves would´nt hurt, but even though I like wearing them, they are not necessary. If u are gonna go down fast, get some back protection aswell but I think for the beginning your fine with all that.
- The Bike
Well. That is a hard one to decide. I personally love KTM ( Austrian Brand ) but they are pretty expensive and also hard to get in greece I assume. The best allround brands are GHOST, Scott, Specialized even though it is expensive as fuck the make awesome bikes. If you have a budget of 2000€ try getting one of them. Even though many people may recommend Merida, it is a pretty cheap brand, don´t get that, it will suck. So like I said, try getting a GHOST,Scott,Spcecialized or maybe Trek.
- The links for the gear
I will now give you my favourite gear here on Amazon so you can check it out.
Have a good time!
They make them in full finger gloves too.

These are them, I use them a good bit and I think they are worth it just keeping my hands clean and not hurting all the time. They aren't insulated though so you may need something thicker for winter but those will be harder to use just because they are thicker.
my fox gloves are very breathable on the back of the hand - keeps you cooler than you'd expect. my next gloves will be the same ones in a different color

I get a lot of stuff from FDX. I'm not made of money so there's no way I'm spending £50 on something I can get for £15 from them.
I got these biking ones work fine for me. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015MYZ7KQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
use some touchscreen friendly gloves, not large ones but the thin type. At least to give your thumbs a rest.

Turn signal gloves also seem alright (if you like wearing gloves):

I'm not a fan of those saddle-mounted turn signals. They are too close together and only visible from the back.
Are these not the Reflex gloves you're looking for?
