Finally A glove that does it's job!

By Ranked #1 - Mittens January 12, 2009

Well after trying all the top gloves made And nearly getting frostbite
in the process , I purchased the alt mitts. They are they only gloves or mitts that allowed me to
Hike In temps 20 and under. If you take a large order a med they run very big. I also used these while mountaineering in ice and
never got cold . My hands unlike others are cold in temps 35 and under With very warm glove son. The inset really is like a large super soft pillow
What I found that makes them so much better is the insulation on the back of the hand, Almost all others are packed under the palm. My hands did sweat in them which can cause problem so I do reco liners to stop this also makes the mitt fit snug. I have done lots of research and this gloves has made it to the summit of everest many times over its been tested.
