Black Diamond Mercury Mitten - Women's
Should have kept them
By Happyboarder
Ranked #127 - Mittens
January 11, 2008
These mitts seemed super warm, and are all fuzzy and cozy inside. However, I returned them in favor of The North Face Full Circle Down Mittens because they were pretty big and bulky. The gaiter of the extra small almost came up to my elbows, whereas TNF stops a little past the wrist. Well, my mistake, because I was longing for the Mercurys, despite their size, when it was -11 at ABasin a few weekends ago. TNF Full Circle was just not warm enough for negative temps.
