First off, gloves. I’ve been through quite a few iterations of gloves over the past 3 years, but these have been far and away the best. I’ve been using them for the last 2 years now. I got a couple rips in seams but I sewed them back up and they’re working great again. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0743KJRBX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 What I really like about them is the versatility. I wear them as high has 60 degrees comfortably and I’ve been fine with them down into the single digits. For me, below freezing I usually have to pull out the over mitten but it really keeps my hands warm but it’s thin enough not to lose dexterity. At the end of the year last year I had the epiphany to slide a hand warmer (if needed) into the little pocket on the top but it hasn’t been cold enough this year to test that idea out yet. Bonus is that they dry out really quickly so I don’t have clammy and cold hands on the way home. If the hand warmer trick fails me this year I might try moose mitts/bar mitts.
I requested and received a pair of these for Christmas. I wore them for the first time this morning, when the temp was just below freezing. I previously have used a similar version that is a bit thicker, but without the mitten portion. I must say that I am shocked at how warm these kept my hands when using the mitten cover. It makes a huge difference. I can only imaging what they will do with a chem warmer tucked in. Thanks for the suggestion and linky!
