The cafe tops, in my experience, offer no seal though. I've gotten coffee all
over legs and filled up the pocket of my rucksack when using it! Is this your
experience too, or am I just doing it wrong?.

The cafe top isn't intended to seal, it's intended to be like a car coffee
cup -- spill free when sloshed about a bit yet easy to drink from. So, yes,
you're using it wrong. Just swap out to the sealed lid when you need it.

Have you tried a pair of form fitting leather work gloves and just cut the
