Solid Glove

I used these gloves at -18 celcius (Sorry you americans have to do the math but its 4 degrees Fahrenheit) at Whistler BC last month. Not only were my hands comfortable, but my buddy with glove warmers and his northface dilithium gloves and liners complained all day about cold fingers. I was by no means sweating, but I was warm.
I have also used these gloves on warmer days (-2 celcius, like 28 Fahrenheit) and they breathed well enough and my hands did not get over sweaty or wet.
I am a snowboarder so I spend alot of time with my hands in the snow, so I would recommend this glove for anyone.
For the guy that complained and said he needed thin liners to make the gloves warm, I have no idea why you would even need liners with this glove unless you are concered ease of regular cleaning.
