Mountain Hardwear Absolute Zero Mitt
good design

I bought these for skiing - I always have cold hands and was hoping they'd help. The long gaiters on the wrists do help keep the wind out - and they're thoughtfully built to be able to adjust easily. They're a little bit bulky to deal with ski pole straps, but not too bad. And so far they seem well built and durable. Unfortunately, my hands still get cold. They do accommodate disposable heater packs nicely though, so they're working fine. I think I have Reynauds syndrome causing my cold hand problems though, so I think these would be VERY warm for the average person.
