Hestra Heli 3-Finger Glove

Great Gloves

By Ranked #749 - Ski Gloves January 2, 2011

I have been wearing these gloves for about a month now in temperatures down to about -10 F. My job involves a lot of walking around outside so I was looking for something warm and still functional. I found that these gloves are ok for handling big tools or operating the zipper on my coat but they are still too bulky to use for things such as operating a camera (no surprise though). They are very warm when walking but when standing around at 0 or -10 F my fingers will get cold after 30 minutes or so. I really like the wrist straps, I can pull off the gloves if I need to reach in my pocket or pick up something small and then I dont have to worry about dropping them. I just ordered the Outdoor Research Alti mitts to use when I need to do a lot of standing around outside but I will still wear the Hestra Heli's when I plan to be active while outside.

I got the black/white gloves and they look really good with my black coat. I put on the leather conditioner that came with the gloves and the white darkened up a little but not much. They seem to be very well made and I expect them to last for several years.
