Waterproofing is not adequate. However, it serves my purposes! I live in Virginia, and my children and I have been skiing in the area. I bought these gloves because they were inexpensive. I've been pleased with them in general. They work down to about 40 degrees, at which point I wish I had hand warmers or liners (though I am easily chilled). They aren't quite as waterproof as I'd like them to be in the rain, but I doubt many people would want to ski in the rain. br>br>The gloves are long enough to cover the tender spot on my wrists where my coat sleeves end. In comparison to other gloves I've owned, I really like this one because it keeps the snow off my wrists so much better. Because I didn't want to spend $80 on a pair of gloves, the wrist of the glove really overlaps my jacket sleeve, even if I have to pull the glove on and off and some snow from the fingers of my glove gets on the edge of the glove around the wrist. br>br>But for recreational skiing in Virginia, these have been an affordable solution that has worked for me, as long as it's not too cold or too rainy, or if I'm only in the.
I wore these to go snowmobiling in Estes Park, Colorado, where it was in the single digits and snowing. Because of the hand warmers on the snowmobile and the gloves, I didn't notice the weather until I removed them. A fantastic purchase!.
One-day use has resulted in significant fraying. I really wanted to like these, but they didn't pass the first snow test. I took them snowboarding (which I hadn't done in 12 years) and they had a great time. Needless to say, trying to get back into the swing of things, I fell quite a few times. I discovered to my horror that they are NOT waterproof and are soaked all the way through after all of my wonderful contact with the snow each fall. I swear I was on the verge of frostbite, and once the temperature dropped later in the day, I was miserable. I was fortunate that a friend had a spare pair that I was able to borrow, even though he wears a men's xl and I wear a women's xsml, but it was preferable to losing my fingers. After only one day of use, all of the finger tips had frayed (see photos). The touchscreen tips worked with my phone, and the fit was excellent. These might work for you if you never plan on touching snow (or anything wet for that matter). However, unless you enjoy the prospect of frostbite, I would not recommend using them for their intended purpose of snowboarding or skiing.
This pair of gloves is fantastic! In the snow, they're almost completely waterproof, and I didn't lose feeling in my fingers, which is a huge relief. They're long on the arms, so there's no gap between your jacket and your gloves, and you can tighten them to keep snow out. I'm not sure how much decent ski gloves should cost (Floridian), but they're not too bad considering the little that I know. The touch screen fingers work great (they're only on the pointer fingers), and both gloves have a zipper on the top of each hand big enough to put keys, money, or credit cards in, and the zipper is easy to pull with the gloves on so you don't have to take them off to open, which is nice.
I'm sick of shoveling snow while wearing two layers of gloves, only to have them get wet and freeze my fingers in a matter of minutes. So I finally bought these skiing gloves (even though I don't ski), and they are fantastic. Snow does not get up my sleeve or into my gloves thanks to the long cuff with a drawstring. They're water-resistant, extremely warm, well-made, and cozy. My purchase has made me extremely happy.
I like these gloves a lot. I'm a woman with small hands, but when I measured them, it said I needed a large. Instead of a small, I would have preferred a medium. It would have been a little more snug for my hand to be able to grab things more easily if it had been a little tighter. Overall, they're of excellent quality, and I'll be wearing them this winter. Gloves have become my new favorite.
I wore them twice, the first time for nearly an hour while shoveling snow in 18F weather. My right hand had become frostbitten. The second time was for a 20-minute sledding session at 33 degrees Fahrenheit. My hands stayed warm and dry the entire time, and the fit was perfect. I normally wear a large in women's gloves, so I ordered a large in these as well. The fit is ideal, but the touch screen is difficult to operate because the right glove finger is extremely shaky.
I didn't get to ski with them, but I did get to dog sled and snowmobile with them, and I'll admit that my hands were never cold while dog sledding because I wore cotton gloves underneath and hand warmers. Trying to use my phone with them was a real pain because the touch part seemed to be off from how I'm used to using my fingers. Hand warmers were mounted on the handlebars of the snowmobile. So I can't say for sure, but I could definitely feel the warmth through my gloves. It was in the upper 30s, as well. It was extremely cold on dog sled day, but my hands were not cold. I simply did not give them a thorough examination. In Colorado, this term is used.
