Outdoor Research Meteor Mitten
Very Warm Mitten

These mittens are super warm. If you have trouble with cold hands get these. I have never while skiing really had the need to have the fleece inserts, just the shell they are so warm. The flip back flap on the fleece is nice especially with the magnets that hold the flaps back. Although I don't like the velcro on the mittens as they tend to want to eat up the fleece if they come into contact with eachother. Otherwise they have plenty of room in the sinch area to go on top of your jacket. If I have to choose I would also say they run a little on the big side but that might be because I only use the shell part.
