Commuter Windstopper Glove

Best daily cold weather gloves I've ever had.

These are the perfect low profile articulate gloves, they certainly do stop the wind and they don't well. they are especially great for cycling in cold weather, the cold wind on a bike is brutal and these are some of the only gloves I've found where I can actually hold the bars firmly and stay warm, fantastic.

warm and dry

They keep me warm and dry so far. Using them for rainy commutes to work.

Not that great

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I had an old pair of windstopper gloves I loved but lost. Bought these to replace them for walking the dog. They are ok but not great. The finger fit is off and they aren't very comfortable. I bought multiple sizes and even the most optimal is not great.

Silicone and Touchscreen Compatible finger tips peeled

I have purchased a number of OR products over the years and have been happy with all of them except these. The Touchscreen Compatible applique to the index finger peeled off after fewer than a half-dozen times wearing the gloves in a recreational urban environment (i.e. without subjecting them to vigorous conditions). The silicon applique began peeling shortly thereafter.

Great Commuting Glove!

I need to rave about this glove! It is amazing at keeping your hand warm while you are out on your bike commuting. It is honestly a great do everything glove. The glove will get wet in the rain, but keeps my hands warm even in the rain. I live in Seattle and bike commute to work 3 days a week. I can't recommend this glove enough. Warm, but breathable glove.

Colorado Monument

Weather in the morning 21 degrees and 10 mph winds. Hands stayed warm.

Love them!

These gloves have a great mix of warmth, water resistance and dexterity. They're now my go to glove anytime I'm commuting on my bike.

Very warm, excellent wind stopping. The touch capacity is very limited, touch controls take several tries and more often than not I end up removing the gloves to use my phone anyway.

Perfect gloves for my winter photography!

I was looking for warm gloves I could keep on while using my DSLR in Adirondack winter conditions that could run into well below zero tmps. I spent 4 hours photographing with them in zero to 10 above temps this past Sunday and I never had to warm my hands up or put them in a warmer mitten. I could do everything I needed to with my camera, they were comfortable - and if needed - the smooth outer surface slides easily into Alti mitts or the ColdFront mitts I just got.

Great for winter runs

Love the warmth and feel of these gloves. Great for the colder crisp winter runs. Only complaint is that the touch sensitive area of the gloves is not as responsive as I'm used to with other products, and I find myself removing the gloves when I need to do anything other than operate the buttons.
