5 Star Rating

Fantastic warmth!

By Ranked #21 - Mittens December 29, 2008

I have last year's version of these mitts. I tried on this year's at a local shop and discovered that they've fixed the problem with extra large! My hand measurements are exactly on the line between large and extra large according to OR info. I found the large too small and the extra large too big (last year). This year, the extra large is perfect. As for the guy who asked about people with Raynaud's Syndrome, I don't have it (at least not to my knowledge!) but my hands get awfully cold when others don't. These mittens have solved that problem. In fact, I can't wear them above 10 degrees or my hands sweat. So far, coldest I've worn them is minus 10 with a 45 mph wind, exposed above treeline for about an hour. Fingers were toasty warm!
