As a former archaeologist, I used to use these when I was digging in the winter. I also occasionally used them for skiing if I had forgotten my ski gloves. Very durable and effective even if they aren't the most comfortable thing in the world. They worked good enough I bought a second pair.

The Windwall Glove keeps the wind out, but that's about it. The interior feels uncomfortable against the skin. The so-called grip is slippery and actually makes it harder to hold onto things. Shell out the extra twenty dollars more and buy the vastly superior Pamir Windstopper model instead.

I use these when I go running in the 20 to 30 degree range, which in MN is often. They keep the wind and cold out but at temps much below this your going to need something heavier. Water does not come thru easily but the outside soaks it up pretty good. I would NOT use these for skiing.

The windwall glove is a nice, light glove. I think they are very comfortable. The only downfall I've had with them is that if the temps are really cold, they feel like they turn to paper... if that makes any sense.

Had them for one week, ripped at the seam, right between fingers. Definitely more expensive than they're worth.

I used these during an Everest base camp trek in Nepal during mid-December and we had mild weather, so these were great for daytime on all but the last 2 days before base camp. They did a good job of blocking the wind and cold. At the hightest altitudes and at night, more insulation was generally needed, so I wore my ski gloves. As they are not water-repellent, they weren't suitable for wearing on the one day we had light snowfall.

These are nice gloves, the grip on the palms and fingers work pretty well, but if it gets too cold, you're better off getting something that has more insulation.
