Mens Black Winter Cold Weather Ski Insulated Snow Gloves

Well, it's a glove and it does keep your hands warm enough (down to into the 20's in moderate wind - perhaps more). However, the reason I'm deducting so many stars is because of its extremely poor fit and poor choice of textures.First, as others pointed out, the sizes run very small. Most small gloves fit me a bit large, but this one is very tight even when I ordered medium! Second, and more vitally, there is something really off about the way it is cut and how it (does not) fit around your fist/clenched hands. In other words, it does not want to conform to your hand as you move about and perform ordinary tasks. For example, the simple act of grasping a steering wheel and driving for my 20 minute commute leaves me with a very very sore palm (below my thumb) because of how much additional strain the glove is causing due to it's abnormal shape. This also compounded by the other problem...Second, it's slippery! You have virtually no grip with this thing. With the slippery fabric all over and the puffy insulation, you really can't hold or feel a single thing. This causes you to exert additional force to accomplish otherwise menial tasks, which again causes unnecessary soreness and strain on your hands. If you only need gloves to cover your hands while you do absolutely nothing, then these are a fantastic deal at $17 a pair. However, if you actually need your gloves to be functional, you should either give up some insulation and get thinner gloves that actually form to your hands, or spend a lot more to get better gloves. And if possible, try them on in a store before you buy!I probably will not be buying gloves sight unseen off Amazon or any other website anymore - even if they're cheaper!

After a recent trip to REI in which the only ski gloves I could find retailed for $60, I found these gloves on Amazon for $15.95 and figured that something must be wrong with them to justify such a low price. After about a week of wearing the gloves, including a long day of skiing, it seems these gloves are every bit as good as the more expensive options sold at REI, at least in moderate conditions. My hands were kept warm all day in temperatures in the 20 degree range and I had full mobility and no restriction in the use of my hands.At the price of $15.95, I would have been happy with mediocre gloves that did the job in an acceptable manner, but these gloves were perfect for a day of skiing and a steal at the price.

Great glove when you plan to be active outdoors in the cold. If you want inexpensive gloves for skiing or shoveling snow these are a good buy. If you need gloves for cold climate situations where you are not so active (like watching a hockey game) you might be better served with a more expensive glove. I am extremely satisfied with the gloves while skiing but not thrilled with them when just casually walking around in 20F conditions.

I wore the gloves today and like all gloves in really cold temperatures, your fingers still get cold even with the 40 grams of thinsulate they say are in them. I'm not sure how durable they are, but they are comfortable.

lining is coming loose. very warm gloves. hands do sweat and inside retains moisture for days if you don;t dry them out

Can't beat the value! Feel like they could be warmer so I gave 4 stars but if you're a beginner or don't often hit the slopes these are perfect!

They are nice and warm (I use them for bike riding). These were a large, and a little tight compared to others this size. They are okay for me, but something to keep in mind.

Arrived just in time for our snow adventure to Big Bear. Great fit. Perfect size. Hands stayed toasty and warm.
