Glacier Gloves
The gloves are beautiful. I was a little worried when I first tried them on. They were a little snug and stiff. But they're all leather and softened up with use and got more flexible. Not as comfortable as summer gloves, but work well with the heated grips. I wear summer gloves down to about 40 degrees then switch to these. They heat up a little slower but keep you warm until the grips take over. My hand measures 9 3/4 and I bought XL.

Nice gloves
These are pretty nice gloves. I wouldn't use them In weather less than 40 degrees without heated grips through. They are very water proof, a 60 mile ride in a complete down pour @ 45 degrees and my hands were completely dry and were just starting to get chilly on the tail end of the ride. The ride home was 34 degrees and a rain snow mix, my hands were dry but plenty cold after 15 miles. I LOVE the gauntlet of these gloves! This is the first pair I have owned that go over the cuff of a jacket without fuss and can be tightened easily with a gloved hand. Thumbs up Firstgear! Between these gloves and the HT 2.0 overpants I recently bought I have to say that Firstgear makes some great stuff! I would buy these gloves again!

Overall, I like these gloves, but after using them about for about 12 short rides to work & around town I see that the stitching that holds the "Velcro" to the body of the gauntlet is all ready coming apart, great for the intended purpose, but poor quality so far.

My hands freeze if the weather is even in the low 40s, to say nothing of colder. These gloves do NOT keep me very warm; they are hardly better in that crucial respect than my ordinary gloves. They are handsome and comfortably configured, but given the claims regarding protection against the cold--which is the main reason I purchased them-- and given the price, which I assumed had to do with their unique quality in this regard, I could hardly be more disappointed. I would not recommend these at all.
