These keep my fingers from feeling blue!

By Ranked #236 - Mittens March 9, 2005

After trying many combinations and types of gloves and liners, I decided to make one more attempt at finding something that would keep my fingers warm after more than a few hours outdoors when temperatures fall below thirty. These do not disappoint! They are a little on the bulky side (but if you are contemplating even buying these, svelteness of fit is probably not your largest consideration). They, however, do not hinder me while skiing. It may take extra effort if you want to use your ski pole straps, but you'll adapt especially when you realize you can still feel your fingers at the end of the day! The only caution I would suggest would be ordering size. I measured to a size small, but I had to return them for an extra-small (which are still plenty roomy even while wearing a pair of glove liners). These are pricey, but so is buying glove after glove thinking maybe the next one will work better. Save your pennies to save your fingers!
