Seemingly underrated warm gloves!
I don't understand why these gloves haven't gotten more love. I'm wondering if they are an upgraded version of a prior version. Anyway, they seem quite warm to me, and comfortable. Although I haven't worn them quite down to freezing yet, I'm confident they'll still be quite comfortable. They seem noticeably warmer than the Windpro Fleece Gloves, which I also really like. I'll report back when it reaches 20F.
Awesome - Good Value - Great Fit
The XL gloves are the best fitting gloves that I have ever purchased. I have always had problems getting gloves that fit. I have average bone size and big (not huge) hands and long fingers. These gloves have plenty of room around the fingers, not almost skintight or a tad short as other gloves. The light weight insulation is perfect - hands are warm on a cold and windy day. You'll probably need warmer gloves when the temperature falls below freezing.
Good for winter walks
1 hr walk. 7 deg F. 5 mph winds. Left hand wore just the glove. Right hand Glove and REI Liner glove. Hands were not cold at all. Liner glove didn’t make much of a difference Will come back to comment on harsher conditions. Liner glove may make a difference in 20 to 30 mph winds. Feel like XL was my size but went with XXL and I feel like that may have helped keep hands warm.
Keeps hands functional while retaining warmth
Nice gloves decent price Very functional gloves I was able to use my phone with them on and they seen durable enough for longer outings.
Great for running under 30F
Most, if not all, cold-weather running gloves are worthless at or below 30F. But for me these work pretty well. A bit pricey but I think they'll last a long time. As for REALLY cold, like 15F or below, haven't had an opportunity to test them yet. But I think they'll do ok.
His hands get cold with these gloves really easily
His hands get cold with these gloves If it’s below 35 degrees
Good Warm Gloves
I’m very happy with these gloves. I’ve worn them for a couple of walks with temperatures in the low 20’s and my hands were nice and warm. I think they will be perfect for winter hiking here in western Colorado.
REI Men’s gloves too bulky… perhaps?
Gloves are warm, but really clumsy in the dexterity department to point where you have to take them off to do even simple fat finger tasks. Probably going to return for a slimmer pair
significant omission
Good fit for XL hands and warm for my purposes-daily city wear when 40 F to 25F or so. Not for use with touch screens which the reason for loosing the 5th star
