Best over mitts I've used so far
They keep my hands dry when digging snow pits and warm when the temps drop and winds are howling on ridge tops. They are super lightweight and pack down small to fit inside a pocket. I bought size med and they fit over medium winter gloves comfortably. Highly recommend especially if you go out ski touring, or spend all day outside in all conditions. Prefect to bring on your fall/spring hiking trips in the PNW or any areas where precipitation is in the forecast.
Great for backcountry use.
I got these as the waterproof outer layer of a mitten system. The great part is they add durability to liner gloves,which don't alway stand up to wear. Liners can be switched out depending on how much warmth is needed. Or use them alone in a rainstorm to keep hands dry in warmer weather. Another nice feature is liners can be removed if wet, allowing the glove system to dry faster. Overall, the fit is good over liners of various thicknesses. The fabric is durable & waterproof, with minimal seams to fail. The drawstring toggle closure is easy to use with the other mittened hand, which is essential. Very happy with my purchase.
Poor Quality
The Overmitts were exactly what I was looking for to add warmth and waterproofing to my regular mitts and gloves. In fact, I bought two pair to keep in two places. Unfortunately, I found they didn't breath well -- too hot and too cold depending on the weather. Also recently one of the mitts got a hole from a mild impact. They are made of gore-tex but it sure doesn't seem like it. To top it off, Black Diamond said they were out of warranty so won't offer a replacement.
Exactly what I expected - nothing less than excellence.
As a ski patroller and avid backcountry skier, I wanted something I could depend on during our subzero Montana winters. I have trusted the Black Diamond brand since its roots as the Great Pacific Iron Works. These overmitts didn’t disappoint. I needed a bombproof wind and waterproof shield to go over my woolen mittens and got EXACTLY what I needed.
Awesome overmitts
I had been eyeing these last year, bought a M pair & returned them because too big. My palm to middle finger tip is 6-1/2”. XS size fits perfect over all of my finger type in gloves, to instantly make my own gloves waterproof, wind proof & gives an extra layer! I can fit a thin or bulky pair under & they feel great !
Not waterproof
I bought these mitts to use when I experienced really wet conditions, either hiking/backpacking or skiing. The first time I used them was a full day of hiking in heavy rain and just a few hours in my hands were wet. I tried them over my liners and then my liners ended up wet as well. These will likely help in very light, on and off rain as water "resistant" but don't buy them if you are expecting waterproof mitts. I returned.
Great overmitt
I used these primarily as a ski over mit with fleece gloves underneath. first used on a powered day that turned into rain. hands and fleece gloves stayed dry all day. the gloves have no insulation are thin and easily stow in a jacket pocket.
wonderful outer mitts. . . one complaint
These are great outer mitts, heavy duty, protect well from wind and water. They're *outer* mitts, so of course the "run large. " XS fits perfectly over my XS BD Glissade Mittens. That combination keeps my hands warm well below the Glissades' stated temperature range. I'm repeating here my one complaint (and desperate request)--and the only reason I'm giving four instead of five stars: why must virtually all mittens contain embedded elastic around the wrist? This makes them so much harder to put on and take off while on the trail! A cinch strap instead would permit the wearer to loosen the mittens around the wrist for ingress/egress and then tighten to taste for retaining warmth (and/or staying in place). Anyone listening?
perfect extra warmth
So all glove reviews should start with if you have cold or warm hands. I have cold hands. Also, skiing mostly backcountry. I use these over my guide gauntlets for really cold temps and they do the trick to give me some extra warmth. Plus, they are small enough that I would not hesitate to take them out at the resort for some extra warmth in the morning, then stuff them in the jacket for afternoon. Oh, and bd is right on sizing. I wear medium in all bd gloves (including gauntlets) and the mediums were perfect to fit over.
Perfect overmitts!
They're perfect. The shape, the cuff length, the grippy coating along the finger tips... All perfect! I'm between a medium and a large in BD gloves. I bought these in a large, because I wear them over a super fat down mitten when snowboarding in below -20°C. The fit is perfect. I don't quite understand why so many reviews state how big they run. I think they're perfectly normal. If you're wearing them over a thin skin tight liner glove, yes, they could be considered relatively big. Otherwise pretty normal in size.
