Cloudveil Spring Troller Glove
January 16, 2007
These are really wonderful gloves for 20+ degree days. They fit amazingly well, stretch ever so slightly to your hand, allow for great dexterity, and seem to have great construction - no errant seams, bulky insulation, or low-end stitching. I had a difficult time shopping for gloves this season and when I tried these on during a ski trip, I was sold immediately. Highly recommended to anyone who has need for a good in-town or 20~+ degree glove.

Arc'teryx Hardface Glove - Unisex
January 9, 2007
These gloves we not quite what i was expecting for the price. Their wind resistance was not that great (25mph+ gusts blew right through, with a liner underneath.) The fit was nice and tight but they were a little bulkier than I had imagined - I had a bit of difficulty dialing on my cell phone or digging into pockets with these on. The leather on the palms does not extend up to the fingertips, making grip not so great where it matters for delicate work. The construction was good however - small seams on the inside, nice pull loop, decent cuff size, etc. Overall a disappointment for the price point - these gloves would have been pretty solid for 30 dollars or so.

Arc'teryx Gothic Lightweight Gloves - Unisex
January 2, 2007
The construction and fit of these Gothic gloves is pretty solid overall, and they are rather comfy to wear. Unfortunately, the merino wool they are made out of seems to be more prone to snagging than my other merino garments (Icebreaker products) do, and they don't seem as tough as Powerstretch does. I feel as though I am going to tear them apart by accident sooner than later. These gloves are much thinner than I was expecting and are really only suitable for 32+ F days with no wind standalone, or as a liner. On the positive side, they wick and cool the hand amazingly and feel just wonderful to wear. Overall, these are a perfect wicking liner for a shell glove or mitt, with a little less insulation than a Powerstretch liner.
