I will be heading out to Kotzebue for work, alot of it outdoors and I need a really warm, durable, glove. Are these mittens or the SV gloves rated for Arctic cold?

The Alpha glove series are not that warm. They only have a small fleece liner. They are meant for alpine ascents or snowsports where you want to make its 100% waterproof and deterity trumps pure warmth. You should look at the new Zenta line of gloves/mitts. THey are much warmer and better suited for your needs
