Man, I love these gloves. I bought these as part of my "embracing the season" this year. In the past, I bought those cheap leather gloves in hardware stores. I'd buy equally cheap knit gloves and jam them inside the leather gloves. Didn't work all that well; my hands got wet and cold. Well, this year I went all out. These babies are real leather and fit like - well, a glove. They are easy to put on and take off. When you cinch up that wrist strap there's no way they're coming off. The little lanyards keep them attached to my coat and I haven't lost either one of them yet. Even though they are are somewhat bulky on - they are pretty dexterous and I can even pick up small items. So, would I recommend them - YES. Did Back Country do a good job on the sale and shipping - YES. Embrace the winter, become the cold and do yourself a big favor and buy these gloves. 'Nuff said!
