Product description

Here you have very tough, padded, and insulated gloves for working in winter without freezing your fingers or busting your knuckles.

Windproof, water-repellent, padded, and tactically black.

  • PrimaLoft® 100 g Gold performance insulation
  • Extended gauntlet cuff with adjustable ladder lock pull tab
  • 5 mm padded knuckle protection plus Armortex® thumb saddle, fingertip, and palm reinforcement

Features

Combining functionality and heat is always a compromise. Thick Wookie mittens keep your fingers warm but prevent you from doing anything, and skin-tight precision gloves allow all the ninja tricks but with frozen fingers. These are somewhere in between. They have quite nice insulation but you can still do stuff.

The gloves protect you from the evil wind, repel water, and they have 100g/m2 PrimaLoft® insulation. Furthermore, they feature padded knuckles, and rugged Armortex® reinforcement.

Because of the insulation and reinforcements, the fingers are fairly thick, so they’re not ideal for shooting or other tasks that require fine motorics. However, shoveling snow, using machinery, construction, and various other outdoor tasks in winter work very well. They offer a very good grip and protect your fingers and knuckles from getting bloody.

The manufacturer mentions that you can use the touchscreen with the forefinger but it pretty much means that you can answer the phone or otherwise swipe with it. Writing text or selecting numbers is quite a soul-eating experience.

Used these as ski gloves in Japan and loved them

Presumably much thicker and more cumbersome than the ColdWork Original or Fastfits, but that's the point. I would say this is roughly equivalent to the various 'skiiing' gloves, rugged and even comes with knuckle reinforcements. I've had a nicer experience with unlocking my phone with this than with some other options, but still don't expect a lot beyond that degree of nimbleness. Good choice for Hokkaido winters (no experience elsewhere so I can't say).
