The warmest you'll EVER wear.

Ranked #118 - Mittens
January 3, 2008
I've gone through quite a few gloves and mittens while skiing throughout the US, including some cold-a$$ days in VT and NY. These mitts are, without a doubt, the warmest I have ever tried. It's not even close. Even after removing them so that my kids can warm their hands in a pinch, I put them back on to my own, now frozen, hands, and in literally moments, they're back to normal. These things must have nuclear material; it's as if they generate warmth. They eliminate wind and stop moisture, too. Truly miraculous. I also like the fleece-like texture on the inside. If you get cold hands, get these and you'll never look back.
