Finally, warm hands!
I hike the Colorado Rockies in all seasons. My winter hikes had been limited because I didn't want to spend a ton on good mittens. Finally, after several false starts with gloves that promised great things I picked up a pair of these. I've been on two sub-zero hikes now (the coldest -20 F with windchill) with these mittens. I'm looking forward to many more winter alpine hikes. Love these mittens!
Toasty.
I got these for the coldest weather. I don't like numb fingers and I figured that in a mitt my fingers can huddle up and keep each other warm. They certainly are very nice and warm. I'm finding they're on the large side so if you're ordering online and trying to pick between sizes you may want to get the smaller of what you think will fit.
Baby it's cold outside
I bought these to keep my hands warm running my tractor to move snow or while shoveling snow. I am often out for three to five hours straight. It can get pretty cold here, often below zero for days at a time. These babies keep my hands warm without any liners. Before I got these I would have cold hands wearing both insulated gloves and over mittens. I flenched a bit about $115 price, but it has turned to be the best cold weather purchase ever.
Nice Mitts
Great pair of mitts for keeping my hands warm after winter camp was all set up. I wouldn't use these mitts snowshoeing above 0 degrees though. Tested them out in 10 degree weather and hands started to sweat. Just got done testing them out in -10 degree weather with about a 5 mph wind. Kept my hands warm for about 25 minutes of snowshoeing then had to make a fist in mitt to keep my fingers from going numb. I haven't tested the waterproofing as of yet.
Wrist Straps missing
OK but the wrist straps pictured were NOT attached or in the package. No one at REI or Marmot could supply the straps. They said return them and reorder. DUMB answer
Exactly what I wanted
Wanted a glove that I could use a liner with for skiing. Though these are insulated, the inner hand pocket doesn't have places for individual fingers, which is what I was looking for. Love the gauntlet... reaches well past my wrist. Wasn't clear to me that these were men's (I accessed them from the women's accessories tab), so I ordered the wrong size.Will have to exchange for a smaller size, then all should be good. Will clearly be waterproof.
Warm not for wet.
Good mitten overall. The lack of a leash? Not a huge deal just moved form my other gloves when in use. They are good why not great. In my dream world the person who decided to put the nose wipe material in place of and not over the water proof nylon would be flogged! In wet conditions this area leaks, wets out. Normally not a prob as long as your are cold , no liquid water. But this is simply an error that makes it a good mitten not a great mitten. Expedition? I would hate to be in the arctic and find out really cold water soaks through over your thumb. I still recommend, just better to know what you have.
Reasonably warm but run quite big
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lightweight and reasonably warm, but run quite large. Most size large gloves are a bit tight on me, but my hands were swimming in these. That worked out pretty well actually because I could easily fit a liner glove in and that combination made these quite warm on a cloudy and breezy 10 degree day skiing. My hands are usually a little bit colder than most people I am with, but I don’t think these are quite expedition grade without liners even for someone who runs warmer than me. The large size does mean that you have essentially no dexterity in these, but I suppose that’s true for almost any mitten.
Amazing Warm and Dry Mitten Marmot
I always had a problem with hands sweating and then getting cold in gloves, even on top brand/high end gloves. I finally decided that gloves were not the answer and bought these awesome mittens. I do wear a silver glove liner inside not for warmth but because my hands sweat. Just spent four days at Steamboat Colorado with morning temps in single digits and these Marmot mittens kept me warm and dry and still easy to grab a zipper and hold ski poles. Definitely recommend Marmot Mitttens. Worth the slight premium to stay dry and warm.
Comparison of 5 Heavy, Cold Weather Mittens & 2 "E
Comparison of 5 Heavy, Cold Weather Mittens & 2 "Extra" Glove Liners 1. Hestra, Heli Three-Finger Insulated Gloves; Item #872756; 140.00 2. Black Diamond, Mercury Insulated Mittens; Item #870649; 109.95 3. Marmot, Expedition Mittens; Item #834143; 115.00 4. Yvon Chouinard Equipment, Expedition Mittens - Very Old, But Good Condition - for comparison 5. Old All-Leather "Amish" "Over-Mittens" (no liner) w/ Wal-Mart heavy fleece gloves "Extra" Liners: A. REI Merino Wool Liner Gloves (very thin !); Item #102903; 24.95 B. Discount Store: heavy fleece gloves; 6.95 Intro: I have small hands. (8-3/8"; 215 mm; circumference at knuckles) Mittens Size: Medium REI member since 1972. REI's Tech "expert" stated that the Marmot Mittens would be the warmest of the 3 from REI; the primary purpose was for very cold winter hiking, driving a tractor for clearing snow, etc. Comparisons: 1. The Hestra 3-Finger gloves are the easiest to work with, due to the exposed "trigger" finger; they ae well made & the leather contact surfaces is tactile. If the index finger gets cold, I had room to move it in with the other 3 fingers. They are not as warm as the Black Diamond, Marmot or Chouinard. There was enough room to use the very thin REI liner gloves. 2. The Black Diamond are OK to work with. The leather palm & thumb surface is OK for gripping (e.g. tractor steering wheel). I don't know why they have a separate "index finger" in the liner; it does not add to the dexterity; there is NOT sufficient room to move a cold index finger in with the other 3 fingers. These & the Marmot are equal in warmth; & very slightly better than the Chouinard (just for comparison). There was enough room to use the very thin REI liner gloves. 3. The Marmot's were disappointing. They are impossible to work with; the leather palm & thumb surfaces are extremely slippery; this makes simple tasks very difficult (e.g. pulling the gauntlet over the a coat cuff; tightening the wrist strap, etc.); also the finger area is much longer, than the others, further reducing the dexterity. They are NOT any warmer than the Black Diamond. They are significantly larger than the other mittens; there is sufficient room to use the Discount fleece gloves, but this did not make them warmer than the Black Diamond with very thin liners. (surprised !) 4. The Chouinard are just slightly less warm than the Black Diamond & Marmot. There is room to use the Discount fleece gloves, which is an improvement. Because of their uniqueness, I don't want to abuse & wear them to shreds. (collector item ?) 5. "Amish" Leather Over-Mittens are frankly surprising good, when combined with A) the Discount fleece gloves & B) hard work (e.g. splitting & stacking firewood). Certainly not as warm as the other 4 mittens. They are very rugged; the trigger finger adds dexterity; but they soak up water quickly. I may try a silicone coating.
