I'm not gonna lie...If I could find a woman the same way I love these gloves, I would be completely satisfied every day of my life!!! I have attempted to use them on three trips now and my hands were too warm were too warm on two of the trips. I definitely got some priceless use out of them up at Camp Muir on Mt. Rainier last weekend though. It was flippin cold! I will definitely take these gloves on any trip that I know will be super cold. They definitely have their niche! I love cloudveil's customer service as well! Stellar company! Way to go fellas!

Cheers!!!

I purchased this glove with the hopes that it would be able to perform in a number of different conditions and I have been very happy with them so far. The glove comes in two parts, a shell and a extremely warm liner glove that can quite certainly function on its own. When used together, you have an absolutely bomb proof furnace of a glove. In warmer conditions, I have removed the heavy liner and inserted a thinner fleece glove as well as using the shell on its own! The glove leashes are quite comfortable and enable removing your gloves without any chance of them getting lost. The extended gauntlet, one hand cinch cord, and heater pockets are all sweet extras. I have found that both the liner and the shell are very grippy and perform as intended. However, when first trying this glove on, it is extremely stiff and uncomfortable due to the thickness of the liner glove. Yet, it does break in rather well in just few hours of use and becomes comfortably dexterious for a heavyweight glove. If you choose to use the shell with another fleece or liner glove, this is not an issue at all. My only slight complaint is that the snap tabs on the cinch cords are very difficult to unsnap. With that said, I am enjoying these gloves to the fullest and would purchase these again. Good Times!

I really like the outer shell and use them with different liners now. But the inner glove / liner that these came with are kinda sucky-- the innermost lining turns inside out when your hands get too warm. And they are really stiff. I have little finger dexterity with them on. I'll consider using the liners as a separate glove, but I'm not a big fan.

For the cost of these gloves, they really ought to be the bomb, but really, they are just the most expensive glove shell on the market.

-Dexterity: 0 turns. Very stiff, somewhat uncomfortable

-Removable liner: 2 turns. Very thick and warm liner with grippy palm could be used separately

-Wrist fit: 2 turns. A little on the loose side

-Palm material: 1 turns. Not too tacky and very stiff.

-Overall Construction: 1 turn. Not XTR fabric on outside which in my humble opinion not only gives you the benefits of GoreTex, but holds up well to abrasion which is a big issue for any skier trying to find weeks old powder in the thickest of forests. I felt like this glove would rip upon first contact with any stray branch I should try try to shield my face from.

-Verdict: 1.2 turns. Lowest rating, yet it had one of the best idiot straps I've ever seen; eliminating the cinching piece of plastic and opting instead for an easy on, easy off elastic cuff. It also had a zipper pouch for a heat chem pack if you're into that sort of thing.
