Positive Reviews:
Light, great grip, great windblocker, fit like, well like a glove,
I noticed that there is a different version of this glove; without the Windstopper membrane...don't go for it. I have this version, with the Windstopper on the upper hand, and it is crucial.
I have used these gloves for quite cold mid-Fall hikes, climbs, and just hanging out at camp when it is too cold for no gloves. They handle a small cigar well. I would not trade in that Windstopper for anything... essential for winter.
Highly recommended to a friend, as well as anything OR makes pretty much
Neutral Reviews:
I have worn these daily for about a month and a half now, the gripper material is slowly coming off from very light use such as driving or using railing on stairs. I wish the gripper stuff was on all of the fingers. These gloves are fitting and windproof for Western Washington weather. Going to test them in colder weather, snowshoeing soon. They are perfect size for small tasks where dexterity is needed. Sizing seems standard.
