Amazingly Warm!
By Mom of two rascals!
Ranked #25 - Mittens
January 7, 2009
Ok I HAVE to leave a feedback on these mittens After 14 years complaining to my husband that my hands are cold when we ski (specially on higher slopes), and after 14 years my husband being inpatient because I have probably purchased 5 pairs of expensive gloves/mittens over the years and never managed to really be warm. I would always be winning and the cold on my hands were a down side of our skiing seasons My suffering has come to an end. It was the first time that I did not even need warmers. OK it is not very easy to hold the poles but after some days I got used to it.
I would also recommend second skin gloves under them because you not very agile on your hands so when I had to clean my nose or take pics I had to remove them, if I did not had the second skin gloves I would obviously freeze and it would take a risk of not being as warm and comfy as I was on the first place Now cant OR develop something for my feet?
