Not awful, but not for me

By William C Clark Ranked #53 - Ski Gloves January 12, 2011

This is an updated review after having more time with the product. I liked them quite a bit at first but they have increasingly grown out of favor for me. They have a number of positives: they are warm, I enjoy the mitt/glove combo for warmth with dexterity, the wool liner is a great material and teleing all day in the rain my hands were warm and dry. But the negatives win in this case. They say they run small and they do a bit - I got large and usually get small or medium - but the sizing, for me, is strange. The length of the fingers is generally okay but there is too much bulk in the circumference. Also, there is a light microfleece liner between the shell and the wool pull out liner that makes grabbing very difficult because there are too many layers slipping around between your hand and the desired object. The wool liner is too long and interferes with jacket cuffs making the jacket-glove interface uncomfortable. The positives are really positive but the negatives means I'm ultimately sending these back. Not sure what to get get instead (BD Legend with a separate liner? BD Virago with a separate liner?). We'll see.
