How do these compare to the MH Torsion gloves? I'm looking for something to be used on warm glacier climbing days....

The Torsion isn't waterproof, only resistant. Otherwise, they are similar. The Torsion has a loop for clipping into a carabiner so are somewhat better suited for climbing where waterproofness isn't as important. Honestly though, I can't imagine a situation where that would be the case. Especially not on a glacier.
