Definitely runs very small
Because this is a shell designed to go OVER other gloves, it should be oversized. However, it runs very small. I saw some reviews about it being small, and I ordered a size larger than my normal size--and size shown in size chart, and it's not large enough to go over anything other than a glove liner. Can't get even fleece gloves inside, much less any bulkier glove. If it were large enough to actually go over gloves, it would be a very good idea. A longer cuff would help, too, but I could live with that if it were actually the correct size to use as an outer shell. Unfortunately, there's not a larger size for me to exchange this. So bummed.
Lightweight but run small
These are very lightweight and would pack down well. However, these are not 'over mitts' as they would fit over liner gloves but not anything else. Think of them as emergency mitts for wet weather in the shoulder seasons or at altitude, not as winter over mitts. I used the sizing chart and they fit well around my hand (again, either with nothing or liner gloves inside). But the wrist elastic was tight and I have a small wrist. I ended up returning, because I was looking more for winter over mitts. If you order, suggest sizing up from the size chart.
Perfect Goretex Shells
Absolutely love these things. They are essentially just a very thin gore-tex shell. My hands run hot in general and they have been a game changer for my spring skiing and days when it's a little warmer. I just wear liner gloves underneath and these on top. They allow me to still be waterproof and windproof without my hands overheating.
Solid Product! Runs somewhat small.
Product slightly small or this would be a 5 Star review. Product was very helpful in keeping hands warmer and dryer in a 100 km bicycle ride featuring 4 hours of rain and winds gusting up to 40 MPH. I was very glad I had these. Wore them over knit gloves that are fairly small.
Perfect for wearing on own or layering
I normally wear a size small in women's gloves/mittens. Size small in these are perfect for wearing on their own or layering over lightweight running gloves or liners - neither too roomy/bulky nor tight/constricting. I got these to wear over fleece running gloves for a backpacking trip in Iceland - these were a lifesaver over 2 days of nonstop wind + rain. Lost one mitten to the wind - will definitely get them again.
Just what I needed on this year’s long bikepack
Just what I wanted for bikepacking. These are very lightweight over mitts with just tough enough palms. Super light and pack small to cover my hands when needed on my bike trips. i assume they’d be good for nordic skiing too - but i’m going to save them for my long summer trips.
Dry hands
These worked great on my trip to Iceland. We had a wet week, and these kept my gloved hands warm and dry.
