Not as waterproof as i was hoping.

These are a decent glove if you work/play in the snow but seldom make contact with it. I used these off and on for half a winter season in the northeast. They worked ok when I was moving a lot and kept my body temperature up. But my hands would get a bit too cold on the harshest of days, when the temps dipped below 10 degrees, standing inline or on the lift.

Also, I have a hard time believing the waterproofing claim as well. As a snowboarder, I tend to touch the snow a bit more compared to my skiing counterparts, who recommended these gloves. They were constantly getting wet. I tried adding some waterproofing, but that had little effect. When I visited the Pacific NW in mid March, I attempted to wear these gloves. They didn't last 1 run before the heavy, wet snow took it's toll and they were soaked all the way through.

They worked well when doing some backcountry, though. They were easy to get on and off compared to typical ski gloves with a gauntlet.
