    Comments about Marmot Exum Work Gloves:

    These do just what they advertise. If I were a ski patroller or lift operator they would likely be essential gear. For mountaineering, I've found limitations. The leather palm ices up when it's constantly in the snow, leaving them crusty, slippery and very cold. They're medium weight in the first place and once iced up you gotta put them in the sleeping bag at night to ever revive them. Use these gloves for in-bounds skiing on blue bird days, or if you are capable of keeping yourself out of the snow, which I apparently am not. I now keep them in my pickup to scrape ice, hook up tow straps to retrieve the neighbor, and walk to the coffee shop. The Marmot guide glove is a logical step up if you plan to exceed the design limits of these gloves.

      Comments about Marmot Exum Work Gloves:

      I bought these for backcountry snowboarding since the leather will hold up to abuse much better than many other materials.

      Unfortunately after the first day of riding in powdery conditions the gloves got very damp from just the occasional knuckle dragging I do while riding, along with carrying my board some- nothing heavy duty! This was in the Sierra so temps were mild, in the 20s but the snow wasn't super wet which further unimpressed me. My REI Taped Mitts (replacement to famous OR Mt. Baker mitts) work great in conditions like these.

      I don't know if it's because the leather just soaks up water and then it gets pushed through the waterproof lining or what but I do know my hands were wet- and not from sweat!

      After just that first weekend of use I turned the gloves inside out to find one seem at the tip of the finger already burst and some sort of clear plastic looking lining showing through.

      I returned them. I wanted to like them! They have great dexterity and when dry the warmth was perfect for daytime in the Sierra and you can't beat the wearing of leather. Contemplating the $10 more Marmot Work glove that uses a Gore-Tex liner.

      We'll see.

        I bought these gloves to handle Maine in winter. They do it well. I can split wood, sled, snowshoe, all with no problems.

        They're not very warm by themselves, but with my smartwool liners, there hasn't been a single day my hands weren't felling good.

        Doesn't quite live up to expectations

        Comments about Marmot Exum Work Gloves:

        I had great expectations for these gloves. I found them to be very comfortable allowing good dexterity. However, they do not allow water vapor to escape. While skiing in mid to upper 20s and sunshine, my hands quickly turned clammy, damp, and my fingers became uncomfortably cold. I've never had problems like this with other gloves. I tried wearing them with liners and without to no avail. I would recommend these only for warmer activities and/or working.
