Vigor Heavyweight Sensor Glove - Men's

Cold Fingers

I bought these at the end of March last year after freezing my hands of on the AT. Finally tried them out this morning on a chilly hike on a local trail. It was 31 degrees when we started and my finger's quickly got cold to the point of hurting. I have the lightweight version so I thought the heavyweight version would work better. It didn't. These were awful. Very disappointing. Plus the sensor which should work with your cell phone doesn't work.

Mens Vigor Gloves

These gloves are perfect for dry, cold, aerobic activities. I have taken them out while on walks and trail runs in light snow and cold days. They breathe well, and are sufficiently warm for their light weight. I would size down 1 size if I purchased again but love them otherwise.

Good but not great.

Gloves were thinner than I expected. Not sure where the heavyweight comes in. And I had to alter the thumbs on a pair of XL's. They were at least a ½" longer than needed.

Not as warm as I hoped

The gloves are good and I am able to use then with my phone, but they aren't as warm as I had wanted. They are good when it's in the 40's, but not enough when it is below freezing.

Great looking glove but cheaply made

Fall apart real fast. They look great. Only buy these if you plan on walking around town with them. Anything more and they won't hold up longer than a month

comfortable but

They feel good but you cannot use your phone with it, it's not responding.

Terrible build quality

The cuff is loose and floppy, there are all kinds of issues with the fit and cut and stitching that give them a bizarre fit on the hand, and there's too much fabric between the fingers so it hangs out and every finger crease looks like a certain body part. I bought these because I bought OR gloves 5 years ago that fit so well and felt high quality. I think those were a fluke.

Good warmth could use some tech

If decided ingles between medium and heavy weight I would just go with these heavy weight. They feel great and the waffle insulation feels warm. These heavyweights feel like they will keep your hands warm in a medium breeze. Where the medium weight doesn't. I think to make these even better would be to add some tech layering to protect a little more from the wind. I am very picky on gloves and the OR vigor brand has got my heart when it comes to easy on gloves. They fit great when compared to other brands
