Happy Customer
I was looking for gloves that were water proof and would be durable yet provide warmth even without the liners. These gloves met what I was looking for and the liner quality, wrist straps, and pull ties all exceeded my expectations.

great alpine gloves
This is my second pair - I use size Small (without liners) for lighter conditions and Medium (with liners) for colder ones. They are superb winter/alpine climbing gloves - warm, very precise on climbing gear, never got wet in them!

Real Workhorse
Very well made. Holds up well under tough conditions when abrasion's a concern. Totally windproof and waterproof. Warm enough when active alone and when things slow down wear the liner. Should last for years.

Great product
These gloves were very warm compared to other similar products I have tried. The removeble liners were great. They kept my hands toasty down to about 20 degrees.

Great winter gloves.
Great mobility and great fabric. Sheds snow very well and repels water to keep moisture out. Also, if you take the liners out, it dries very quickly. Only complaint would be when my hands get sweaty, it is difficult sometimes to get the gloves on because my fingers do not align well into the gloves. I had to take the liners out, put them on separately, and then put the gloves on over the liners.
