I really like them except for the very coldest times. They keep my hands warm even when wet. They look just like these: http://www.cabelas.com/prod-1/0005133920108a.shtml HTH, Russell |

I don't think they're as practical or effective as neoprene gloves, but they feel better, especially when they're dry. On my first Alaska float trip we had cold, driving rain nearly every day. My wool gloves were adequate, but they never dried out and were miserable to wear. -- Cut "to the chase" for my email address. |

I have both wool fingerless mitts and neoprene fingerless mitts I like the wool better ... as rw says "feels better" but they are a bitch to dry out .... although tossing them up where the hot air to defrost the windshield is supposed to come from ( if it's not blocked by wet wool glovelets ) and kinda guessing where the road goes ( cause the windshield won't defrost ) works ok if you have enough time between uses |

These look good (and cheap): http://tinyurl.com/3yqljn (link to Sierra Trading Post) Thanks, Dan I have a pair of those. They are warm, but they limited my hand/finger movement enough, that I don't use them anymore. I have a few pairs of fleece gloves, that I like better. They still keep your hands relatively warm when wet, dry quickly(you can wring most of the water out), and are very comfortable to wear. I use the 1/2 finger models, so I can tie flies on without taking the gloves off. This pair I bought on closeout somewhere... http://shop.creeksideangling.com/browse.cfm/4,686.htm They seem to be warmer than some cheaper Polartec models I have. brians |

These look good (and cheap): http://tinyurl.com/3yqljn (link to Sierra Trading Post) Thanks, Dan I like to layer gloves just like clothes. I generally wear a lightweight pair first and then layer with heavier gloves, fliptop mittens, or just fingerless outer gloves, as conditions warrant. I particularly like receiver/running back style gloves as "under gloves" if appropriate for conditions - they're fairly warm and dry, allow finger usage and good grip, etc. HTH, R |

I work outside and also do some winter fishing..Neoprene is definetley the
answer espciallt when it come to wid or breezy conditions. You might want to put a pair of liners with the fingers cut off in them, that way if your fingertips get cold you can draw them up into your palms to get them wqrm again. The Neoprene will keep them dry........
