Why We Like The Outdoor Research Prevail Heated GORE-TEX Mitten

Tested in and approved for the harshest conditions by Outdoor Research ambassadors, the Prevail Heated GORE-TEX Mitten dreams of deep alpine lines just as we do. The weatherproof build blocks out the wind and the wet, while the heat-trapping fill and fleecy lining hold in the cozy. At the touch of a button, we get a boost of warmth, choosing from 3 customizable settings, while the touchscreen compatible thumb and forefinger let us snap pics without subjecting our hands to the cold.

Sizing is WRONG

I always buy XL gloves because L is always bit too tight to get on easily. The Prevail XL would be a L for any other manufacturer. Buy up at least 1 size.

Warm when-you-need-it leather mittens

These beautiful, well made/good quality leather mittens are a bit bulky but if it's cold you won't care because your hands will be warm. Turn on the heat as needed. Give the leather a leather balm treatment once a year and enjoy but handle the batteries carefully.

Best Mittens Ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have Reynaud's syndrome, and without these mittens, I wouldn't be able to ski, or do the winter activities I enjoy. I wear them at the rink for my kid's hockey games, and to walk the dog bc my fingers are so vulnerable to frostbite and pain. When I'm out for the full day on the mountain, I always bring an extra set of batteries, and I usually use them, so I recommend that. Great product.

Failure of start button on mitten in replacement mitts

For alpine skiing in cold CO weather. First pair, the start button malfunctioned. Replacement pair, the same thing happening half-way into the season. A design defect that hasn't been resolved.

Stopped working after 2 weeks!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have about 16 or so people in our ski group. Out of this group, 11 people have the OR heated gloves or mitts. Every single person has had to return their gloves/mitts within the first year of purchase. We all love the heated product when it works!! Can't you fix this product so that we can use it and not have to return it to you? Very frustrating indeed.

A great mitten + heat = a winner (for me)

They took a very good mitten and added heat. I suffer from cold fingers and toes but am not willing to stop my outdoor winter activities. I can get more than 8 hours on low. Plenty for a good day of skiing. I have less expensive heated gloves and mittens but they do not even come close. For me, these are a game changer.

Warmest mitts that I have ever worn.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Even without the battery heat these mitts are toasty warm on cold days.

Poor battery life

The battery life is not long enough for a day of skiing. If you can keep them on the low setting all day, you're probably OK, but they are drained in a very short time if you use the high setting. Today I started with low, then switched to medium for 1-1/2 hours, then high for a half hour and they were useless by lunch. I have a pair of Lyon pack battery powered boot warmers that are 15 years old. They are still going strong by the end of the day. Disappointing for the very high price.

Batteries don't last

After using one and a half seasons skiing one battery stopped working. I have a tracker and skied 35 times with them. I was told that the batteries only last a year or two and buy a new one. $329 and a one year battery. Not a very good policy.

Keeps me outside

I've had these for 4 ski seasons now, down to temps of -20F, and they are a game changer! I used to have to come in from skiing every 2-3 runs to warm up, even with hand warmers, and now I can go all day and stay warm! I love that they have 3 temp settings for comfort, I also bought an extra battery set for very cold days, but the reality is, I have only used it once as the batteries last all day for me on low and medium (occasionally high setting while on the chair lift). I am a smaller boned 5'3" female and the small size fit perfectly.
