Mountain Hardwear Masherbrum Mitten

Item #MHW0883 | 19 in Stock

I noticed there is not windstopper membrane in these gloves....

By Ranked #165 - Mittens December 19, 2008

I noticed there is not windstopper membrane in these gloves. How do they stand up to some of those higher velocity arctic winds, or is it necessary to wear a windstopper baselayer beneath these gloves?

There isn't need to add anything on top or inside these gloves to withstand the wind. The shell on these gloves will keep out just about any wind but also with the degree of insulation there really no need for anything else......and my hands run cold ALL the time!
