Black Diamond Mercury Mitten - Women's

These mittens are just okay

By Ranked #460 - Mittens January 7, 2009

I live in Vail and the toes or the fingers are where I get cold first when I ski. I lost my Grandoe mittens that I had found in a lost and found bin at work a couple years ago. Didn't know how great the Grandoe's were until I replaced them with some $40 mittens that were really not great, then someone told me to buy the Black Diamond and I'd love them. They certainly look like they would be great, but Grandoe is by far the warmer of these two brands and I've worn a few ski mittens in my day.
