Recent Insulated Glove/Mitten Reviews
Outdoor Research Toddlers' Adrenaline Mitts
A pair of winter-ready (insulated and waterproof) toddler mitts that have kept my little one's hand warm and dry this winter. Like all kids stuff, sizing may be tricky, but as long as they fit, the mitts can handle almost any little kid's winter adventure. Conditions and Tester Specs: My daughter wore the Outdoor Research Toddlers' Adrenaline Mitts during the winter months in central Pennsylvania. At the time of testing, she was 15-18 months old (and wearing mostly 2T clothes for size reference)… Full review
Kinco 901 Lined Heavy Duty Premium Grain & Suede Pigskin Driver with Knit Wrist
If you place a premium on durability and cost-effectiveness, these four-season beasts might be your gloves. Well-insulated, made from pigskin with a double-layer of leather on the palms and fingers. You have to waterproof them, they take a fair bit of time to break in because the leather is so firm, and there are warmer options. Buy them from hardware suppliers—outdoors sellers overcharge for them. Though Kinco is a brand more often associated with people who work hard outside, their 901 insulated… Full review
Gordini Cache Gauntlet Glove
A good use of synthetic material to make a tough glove that resists water and dries out quickly. With additional glove liners they work well in cold temperatures. I’ve given up on finding the one perfect glove and now I keep a half dozen pairs for different activities like running, climbing, winter camping, and skiing. The Gordini Cache definitely fit into a couple of those slots. Nice, dry snow, moderately warm gloves The Cache gloves fit nicely into the skiing and alpine mountaineering slot… Full review
Outdoor Research Transcendent Down Mitts
Prices are steep. However, the entire mitten is 80 goose and 20 other feathers. My purchases were at the end of the winter season in the United States. The entire mitten is 80 goose and 20 other feathers (80/20 down fill). My first pair of these I bought at some other website I paid $24. About one month later at that same website they were offering the same, only a different design that wasn't selling well; I got two pairs for $13. Because of that purchase, the website provided me with a free shipping… Full review
Black Diamond Glissade Gloves
Very well-made gloves with a great balance of warmth and dexterity within their temperature rating, for general mountaineering, mountain activities, and more. Bought them for a winter trip and while keeping in mind that my activities in the mountains will diversify and become more technical in the next few years. I bought the previous year's model now that a new one has surfaced and got a bargain. The outer shell is synthetic and inspires confidence in its water proof and windproof abilities. The… Full review
Outdoor Research Carbide Sensor Gloves
I wanted a warm, Gore-tex over-the-cuff-style glove with wrist straps for skiing and snowmobiling and that's exactly what these gloves are. The fit is great, the quality has held up so far, and the price is ranged correctly for the value that you get. Outdoor Research's Carbide Sensor Glove Outdoor Research's Carbide Sensor Gloves are a thick, warm, cold-weather glove designed for significant exposure. I bought a pair of these for a snowmobiling trip to Speculator, N.Y., last January and they… Full review
Black Diamond Dirt Bag Mitts
Black Diamond's Dirt Bag Mitts are a very warm, durable product at a spectacular price-point ($44.95 USD). These highly water resistant mittens are made with a goat leather outer which is built to last. Ideal for temperatures well under freezing (30°F or less), the Dirt Bag Mitts are designed for snowsports, hiking/backpacking, or general outdoor activities and chores. Note: Black Diamond also offers a Dirt Bag Glove counterpart. When warmth is a necessity, quality hand-wear is absolutely indispensable. Full review
Outdoor Research Gripper Heated Sensor Gloves
The Outdoor Research Gripper Heated Sensor Glove is a well-built, battery-powered heated glove that can make life a little bit more enjoyable on those cold winter days. The placement of the button that turns on/off the batteries could use some reengineering in order to minimize the chances of accidentally being bumped. Conditions:I’ve worn the Outdoor Research Heated Sensor Gripper Gloves for two-and-a-half months during the winter in the eastern US, with temps down to 5°F (-15°C) and combinations… Full review
SealSkinz Waterproof Extreme Cold Weather Gauntlet
The SealSkinz Waterproof Extreme Cold Weather Gauntlet is a well-constructed, warm and waterproof glove for getting out and about in the cold. Ideal for downhill skiing and backcountry ski descents when temperature fall below -10˚C / teens F, and as a camp glove in somewhat higher temperatures. Preliminary Review Sealskinz has provided me with two pairs of gloves to put to the test, these and the All Weather Glove. Sealskinz specializes in waterproof/breathable socks, gloves, mittens, and hats,… Full review
