Gear Review
Solid, warm glove that runs a little small

I bought these off Steep and Cheap a month ago, and thought I'd throw down a quick review here. First, a note on size: they run a little small. I bought the large, and they're a bit stubby in the fingers (I have fairly long fingers, though). They're also a little snug in the body.
As for construction, well, they're OR, which means they're well made. The stitching seems solid and the materials tough and a little bit stretchy. My only gripe is that the palms are really slick and not at all grippy. I own a pair of OR Gripper Gloves, and would love to see that palm on these gloves.
As for warmth, they've got it, especially for their light/medium weight. I've worn these out on pre-dawn hikes in dry weather that's around 20F, and have felt just fine. Very nice and comfortable liners.
