Warm and Functional and Convenient
Feel looser going on than a lot of the other cool season riding gloves that I have tried, but that looseness of fit does not affect feel or control, it just makes them easier to get on and off. Wore them on a 20 mile trail ride the other morning with temperatures in the upper 40s to low 50s F. and did not feel the need to take them off due to overheating and dampness until the last mile of the ride. Palms are not too padded, so you can still feel the grips and the trail, and the four-finger design means that you can single-finger the brake levers for control and still have your smallest two fingers keeping each other warm. Definitely keeping them as part of my winter riding kit.
Amazing Gloves! Live up to my expectation
I was pretty excited to when I found these, and I really like high quality gear, so I definitely had my hopes up. I live in Alberta Canada and cycle almost year round. I ride a 10km commute to and from work everyday, and with our varying seasons, I felt I had a good warm weather glove option, and a good winter glove option, but was lacking a shoulder season where temps were about -10 degrees Celsius. These gloves have been awesome. They are just the right insulation for what I was looking for. I love the pull strap and leather palms. Very well built. If they lack anything, it may be a soft nose pad on back of thumb, but that's personal preference. The other thing they could maybe do is build this pair and an even warmer pair for colder weather. But again, they work great and I'm super happy with them.
Love these
These gloves have replaced almost all my mild winter bike related gloves (heck I've even cross country skied with them). Amazing construction, feels great, great tactility and warmth. Mountain Biking, great. Gravel ride, great. Road ride, great. Fat bike, great. XC ski, great. OR killed it with these.

Great for cold weather mountain biking.
These are far superior to the more traditional two-finger, lobster-style cold weather gloves because you simply have better control for braking on long descents. I bought size LG and feel the fit is as expected.

Near perfect winter gloves.
I've used them for fatbiking, commuting and cross-country skiing. Amazingly comfortable. Palm feels like a second skin. Kept me warm in minus 20 celsius. Only thing they are missing is a snot patch on the thumb.
No regrets
Good amount of insulation for mountain biking around freezing point and below. Good fit, I wear L size gloves in general and these are no exception. Touch screen feature works well too.
Surprisingly warm for there weight. Excellent wind protection, not waterproof though, water resistant.

Great gear
Another great product from OR . Awesome for cold weather fat bike riding.
