Nice Overliners
Really these are overliners as the details say. I wouldn't ever use them as just regular gloves as they are very slippery inside and probably wouldn't stay on your hands well. They fit over my Burton and Smartwool liners and inside my Black Diamond Recon mittens. They are a nice waterproof layer for the liners and a nice insulating layer to add between liners and mits on super cold days.
Excellent lightweight mitts
I carry these with me on every ski tour and bike tour - and they are amazing. The are incredibly light and pack down very small and they're always there when I need them. They are waterproof and windproof.
light weight and low priced.
light weight and low priced. Just as good or better than cottage company versions. highly recommend.
As expected!
Great mits! Perfect for my hands in the fall, winter and early spring. I am able to use these to cover either gloves or another mitten!
Protects your little fingers!
These are great for cold-weather, but not winter hiking. I have perpetually cold hands, so these protect my hands from the elements-rain, wind, etc. They obviously are not as warm as thicker, insualted mittens that are needed for winter hiking, skiing, etc.
Way Way too BIG
I usually wear a men’s Medium or a women’s XL so I figured these S would work. (I had tried on L and XL in store, and then ordered the S online). When they came they still were way too huge, even as overmitts when I put on gloves with heavy woolen mittens on top, these easily fit over them! So I returned them. Clearly sizing is way off! Otherwise seems like a well made GTX product.
Ultralight waterproof mittens
These are the perfect ultralight waterproof mittens that fit over my thin gloves and work to hold in a little extra warmth. Bought these for a longer backpacking trip so I didn't have to pack my full winter gloves but would still protect my gloves from getting wet as I hike. They have a velcro wrist strap, and the sewn-on clips to keep the pair together. Well worth the purchase.
TOO SMALL!
THESE OVERMITS ARE TOO SMALL. CAN BARELY GET THEM ON.
Great outer shell
I wear this over my wool mitten while hiking in the White Mountains. They provide good protection from moisture and wind. I went a full size up to fit over my mittens.
These fit perfect!
Haven't had a need to use them yet - but they appear to be a perfect fit with liners or medium thickness gloves inside.
