Used these several time for warm weather ice climbing and skiing - great feeling and dexterity from the gloves. Would have liked to see better waterproofing (these things suck up the water and will not keep you dry), so I coated with some of Nikwax's silicone spray and they improved in their waterproofness. Overall a great mild weather glove.

The Ice Flow gloves are by far the best ice climbing gloves I have seen. They are warm without being too hot. Their low profile lets your grip tools comfortably without causing pump, and the leather palms hold up to long rappels without falling apart. They have padded knuckles to keep the bashing to a minimum, and the breathability is perfect to keep your hands from sweating.

Nice sticky leather palm, padding for back of hand, and nice, tight fit. You might say they fit like a glove. Plenty warm. The only limitations would be if things are really wet, the glove pretty much gets soaked, and takes a while to dry. A little soggy is OK. I would be sure to bring a pair of "belay gloves" (warm gloves that can be used for rapping and other high-wear uses), and possibly a pair of more waterproof gloves if you are planning on a soggy day.

I am so impressed with the quality of these gloves that I am planning on my next "soft shell" pants being made by cloudveil.

I got these after searching all over the web for a store that carried them. Cloudveil sold out of them and after using them, I see why. I still prefer my BD Ice gloves for when it is really cold (like the Pinnacle on Mt. Washington on 0F day this spring), but when the temperature is slightly warmer, these gloves perform extremely well. This is not to say that these gloves are not warm. They are fairly warm, but I would hesitate to use them in temperatures much lower than 15F. I used these gloves to climb gr 4/4+ ice in Ontario and NH and was super pleased with how they performed on steep terrain. The gloves are fairly dexterous (placing screws and clipping the rope is a bit easier in these gloves than with my BD Ice gloves) and the padding on the knuckles is enough to help protect your hand, but not so much as to get in the way... Overall, a great technical glove that when the temp stays in the double digits.

I’m using three gloves now for mountain & ice. The BD Drytool for warm conditions or hard climbing, the BD Ice Glove for cold mountain conditions, and the Cloudveil Ice Floe is working its way in to replace the cold weather glove. The Drytool glove is by far the best glove to climb in and manipulate gear, but after some gullies in the sierra and the ice park in Ouray I find my knuckles are bruised and my fingers cold from time to time. The BD Ice Glove is toasty warm, but it is too big and bulky for efficiently handling gear. The Ice Floe glove is a good compromise between warmth and dexterity. The Velcro strap on the wrist is a bit bothersome. If I had to have one pair of climbing gloves, I’d get the Ice Floe glove.

This glove fits great and is quite warm for its weight. The knuckle padding and dexterity are great. They have very little water resistance, however. One short ice pitch on wet ice totally soaked mine. Consider giving them a water-resistance treatment first.
