Icebreaker

Sierra Glove

great gloves

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] usually, even size XSl is too large for me. this one fits! like a "glove"

Thumb strangely long

Familiarity:

I returned this product before using it

The pair I ordered had a thumb which was as long as the longest fingers. The rest of my fingers fit but the thumb sleeve was absurdly long. I have normal shaped hands.

Pills and Rips Easily

Familiarity:

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

I didn't believe the reviews that indicated rips at seams and small holes appearing. Icebreaker makes the best wool stuff around. I use these gloves simply to keep my hands warm on outdoors runs. It's still cold here and I'm still wearing these gloves. Three months and a wash or two later, these things look like they are two years old: pilled everywhere and a hole between the fingers. Will be starting a warranty claim. Terrible use of good money.

Fragile indeed

I received these gloves three months ago. They aren?t warm enough for cold Colorado nights. But, I like that they are slim enough to function as liners under my ski gloves. I was shocked when I put them on today and discovered holes in two finger tips. As liners, they aren?t exposed to anything, and my nails are short, so I don?t know how two holes could have developed with such little use. Money wasted.

Really warm & thin, but fragile

Familiarity:

I've put it through the wringer

Size Bought:

XS

Great dexterity with these and perfect weight for cool weather biking, though the palms and fingers have only light grip. The only problem is that a hole tore along a seam near my palm only a month of using them. Maybe I put too much stress on them from stretching the fingers to reach the brakes on my drop bars.
