The ski mittens are generally well-made with features like adjustable wrist straps and long cuffs, but some users found them not as insulated as expected, leading to cold hands in colder temperatures. While most customers were satisfied, a few reported the mittens ran small and the thumb area lacked sufficient insulation. The overall quality is good, but the mittens may not provide enough warmth for the most extreme cold weather.
These are nice gloves but don’t really keep my hands warm enough.

Warm mittens
Fit: True to size
Used for: Hiking
My hands are always cold. These mittens keep my hands relatively warm. I like the strap that can be tightened to help keep the cold out. On really cold days I do wear a glove liner

Great! Warm, cozy, & I love the little straps you can put round your wrists so you don’t drop them/lose them when you take them off.

The thumb is very short and not well insulated, my hands got very cold in 30° weather. I suggest sizing up so that you can curl your hands into a fist to warm up your fingers if yo

Gore-Tex gloves
Fit: True to size
Used for: Snowshoeing, Cross-Country Skiing, Hiking
Mittens were not as insulated as I expected, I got a men's pair also for my husband. We have both put liners in them. Better now, but for the price very disappointing.

I can’t really explain it but even when you look at the mittens by themselves, they don’t look quite black-you can compare it the strap and leather grip part which are black…
