Hestra Heli Glove

Doesn't do what it claims

By Ranked #1246 - Ski Gloves February 2, 2009

These gloves look huge and daunting, like you could walk through a blizzard with only them on and still be warm. The truth is you might as well pick up a pair of $20 gloves at Target - they'll be just as warm. Don't get me wrong, they are made with quality, but my fingers, especially the tips, were consistently cold. I was surprised given all the positive reviews, but these simply don't work for me. Try the Norronas. I'd never heard of them either, but the customer service person here suggested them - they're made with Prima Loft - they're sturdy, look good, and most importantly, are warm.
