Why We Like The Mercury Mitten
White-out resort days and frigid alpine pursuits call for the Mercury Mitt. This pair's fleecy liner is packed with heat-trapping fibers that keep our fingertips toasty, while the waterproof insert and long gauntlet make sure our hands never see powder and ice. From poles to scrambles, the reinforced leather palm gives us a secure grip.

Ok. Wears down fast
Comfortable at -10C. Would cold below this. Also the lining packed down significantly after just 5 ski days holding piles. Not great longevity. Good for 1 ski trip.

Good mitt, as long as you don't use it much...
I loved these mitts...but I would not buy again nor recommend you buy it because Black Diamond does not sell replacement liners for them. My gloves still look immaculate after 2 seasons, but the Primaloft liners started unraveling season 1, I missed the 1-year warranty window by days to get them replaced under warranty even though I had not used them much at this point. After 2 seasons of heavy use the Primaloft is just overall worn out and needs to be replaced as expected. I don't mind buying a new liner on my own dime, but I literally cannot. They are now worn out beyond functionality and the only option to replace them would be to guess my size in a Hestra liner and hope they fit good enough, or buy a whole new glove which is just plain wasteful. So now I am stuck with a pretty much useless glove. I'll buy Hestra from now on so I can get years of use out of my premium leather gloves.

Toasty warm Mitts
I absolutely adore these mitts. I have always hand issues with keeping my hands warm in the winter months. I love that they're waterproof and the lining is a game changer it keeps my hands so warm! I live in Alberta, Canada and we have had some -50 ish weather here and it kept my hands warm! I definitely would recommend these mitts.

Mercury Mitts!!
I love my mercury mitts so much I bought a second pair! Warm and fuzzy on the inside, tough, durable and waterproof on the side. I also really enjoy the long gauntlets, they fit well over my jacket.

Best mittens I have had!
Even though they are "women's", they fit perfectly to my hand and I love the colors. Easy to put on.

Definitely have some issues
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Size Bought:
- S
There is no doubt that these mittens are warm and water proof. But the elastic around the wrist is so incredibly tight, that on the first day, it hurt my wrist so much I couldn’t ski after a few hours. Although it did get better once they were broken in more. Also, after just one day of skiing, there was a ton of wear and tear on the “leather” parts of the mittens.

Best Mitts for a Cold Weather Skiing/Riding
Probably one of the warmest and most durable mitts available. Sizing runs a little small but they pack out over a few seasons so pick your poison.

Warmest Mittens
I suffer from chronically cold hands so I did my research and these mitts were in the lead on multiple reviews. They are the warmest mittens I've owned! I love these because I'm finally comfortable on zero degree days. There are a few cons. The women's mitts are narrow and a little tight so I suggest trying on Mens & Womens. The sizing is XS, S, M, L rather than other brands that have numbers for sizes (more in between sizes). They're also a little stiff when new, but it feels like the leather is breaking in and becoming more flexible with use. Overall, they keep my hands warm and that makes these a winner for me!
