Reviews:
These gloves are my new favorites for spring touring. I can use them for both up and dowhill without issue (while touring, they are way to thin for resort skiing).
I usually get hot going up hill, but these are thin/breathable enough that I could skin with them on even when temps were in the 40s. They also shed snow very well, so they didn't get wet when transitioning or throwing snow balls. This kept them dry/warm enough that I didn't need thicker gloves for descents, even with temps from 15-20. The one exception was in the middle of an extremely wet storm when they finally got soaked and I had to break out my thick gloves (but this only happened once).
The main downside was that the outer seem of both gloves tour on my ski crampons, so be aware they are slightly fragile (though it was extraordinary circumstances). The gloves have two layers, so I was still warm with the torn outer seem, but there was a lot more play between the two layers, which became frustrating at times.
Bottom line: I'll be buying a new pair for next year and will just be a bit more careful when handling ski crampons.
This glove is light but warm. It probably wouldnt be a ski glove, but is a great all around glove that is relatively thin. So far, it has been waterproof and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for an everyday glove that isn't bulky.
