Great gloves!
Great, durable gloves. The sizes run a bit small. I found the carabiner grommets/pull tabs on the cuff to be in the way, but they are easy enough to remove.

Perfect winter worker.
These gloves were excellent in warmth and dexterity. I could transition from gripping ice tools to belaying without switching gloves.

Do it all winter glove
This is the glove I wear 90% of my glove time away from the hill. I also use it as my main spring/warm weather ski glove. Super super comfy and the leather is holding up great. I love the ripped cuff and the pull on tap. I am somewhere between a L & XL and I prefer the large in this glove. This is probably the glove I recommend most. Not fully water proof but I've had no issues in snow weather.

Nice Gloves, but maybe only low alps
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Very comfortable and light. I can feel the good quality and expect it to last long time. But don't expect it to be very warm. Took the gloves to a 6,000 m peak. It was -10 ~ -20 C. Wind was 60km/h or so. Luckily I took the old ones.

Too small
Ordered a large. As that’s the size of other gloves, these are far smaller

The most versatile glove
I use these gloves for backcountry skiing, ski mountaineering, low fifth class alpine rock climbing, warmer ambient temps ice climbing and for chores around the house. They're versatile and durable. Definitely worth having at least one pair. Great for so much.
