"Hippo Hands" Muffs Description:
The reason these muffs work well, is that they create a zone of quiet air around your hands, therefore preventing unnecessary loss of precious heat in cold weather. Most Hippo Hands users report amazing results, even while wearing lighter weight gloves in cold temperatures that previously required the heaviest winter gloves to be able to ride for any length of time. You'll forget to turn on your electric grips, unless you're riding in sub-freezing temperatures!!! Please read the customers' feedback on my "Testimonials" page.
The exterior of the "muffs" is made out of heavy weight polyurethane-coated Cordura-like black nylon material, for water repellency. The interior consists of heavy weight black polyester arctic fleece for warmth, plus a plastic stiffener used in between the two layers, to help the muffs retain their shape, and allow for rapid insertion of the arm while riding the bike. With this combination of materials, I have achieved a fairly high degree of water repellency, wind protection, and decent appearance.

We consider our Hippo Hands (TM) to be much superior to others in design, materials and craftmanship, and don't want our products associated or confused with those that we consider to be of lower quality and poor design.
This site is the only outlet for real Hippo Hands (TM) Handlebar Muffs. Anyone claiming to be selling products under similar names such as "Hippo Hands - Moto Muffs" is not selling the real "Hippo Hands", as we are the only manufacturing and retailing outlet for Hippo Hands (TM)

Pictured: BMW R1200C with Hippo Hands.
Some of the pictures here are of a BMW R1200C, R1150GS and some are of Harleys, but our Hippo Hands for many other bike makes and models are similar in general appearance, except for specific dimensions such as width, height, and mirror hole location.
Some Harley Davidson bikes have uniquely placed turn signals located on the handlebars, as well as throtle cables that come out at 90 degrees' angle to the handlebar, which necessitated additional design features for their Hippo Hands.
As with all handlebar muffs, construction is heavy Cordura-like Nylon outside, 18 oz arctic fleece inside, with a plastic sheet in between the two. Installation and removal takes all of about 10 seconds, thanks to hook and loop closures. Colour: BLACK.
We regret that no returns will be accepted.
Thank you,
The Management
There is a possibility that at highway speeds, the wind may push back your Hippo Hands enough to press the brake and/or the clutch levers. You should be aware of this when you install any kind of muffs on your bike. This possibility varies from bike to bike and from rider to rider, depending on aerodynamics, wind screen size and design, etc, etc. We are not in a position to predict whether this will or not happen in your particular case.
if this does happen, there's a very simple answer; please go to "HH Brackets" .
If there are any questions still unanswered by this description, please
Thank you for dropping by, and please visit this site often for new products.
Questions or comments? please
The most important difference between "Hippo Hands" and other products in the marketplace, is the fact that most of our Hippo Hands models are designed for the specific bike that they are going to be used on, rather than being a "generic" design that fits all bikes, but poorly.
