Extreme frontiers.

They are camel colour and look really comfortable, not bulky and waterproof!

Got a couple of sets of winter gloves and waterproof gloves including some expensive dainese ones but they are all too bulky!

Looking for thin, waterproof but also good levels of protection in case of a fall!

Any suggestions?

Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

Ip you are looking for something a littel cheaper but still very good, try Spada Vortex gloves

No bulky padding, good feel and seem like they would protect well in an off.

Will they be any good in an off or in rain?

Triumph's own brand are remarkably good as waterproof goes and none too shabby for heat retention, with hand guards they're fine for all but the coldest rides. Can't remember the specific model, Sympatex something our other, only cost about 35 quid in the end of season sale.
I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint
