There's a comment that got a LOT of attention stating that these gloves are suitable for very cold temps. That is INCORRECT -- these are NOT super warm. That commenter did tack on an edit, but didn't amend his original comment, so it's still going to probably be misleading people. These gloves are open-weave without a proper wind-shell. They're also very, very absorbent, and will not protect against precipitation at all. In other words, these are better for spring or fall than they are for winter.

Don't take my word for it though - here are the reviews from people who've owned these:

Your comment cannot be blank.

Featured Comments

IMHO, these are more sub-freezing type gloves. 30s-40s I prefer something much lower profile, more like lined driving gloves or even thinner running gloves. These are the giant puffy coats of gloves, like George Costanza knocking over liquor bottles.

Edit: While bulky, these are definitely open-weave type gloves and won't be as warm as proper encased gloves. So they're all the bulk without the warmth Wink
EDIT: there's another comment that got a LOT of attention stating that these gloves are suitable for very cold temps. He tacked on an edit below that information admitting that idea is erroneous when I pointed out the open weave and reviews, but I have a feeling people aren't going to read past the first sentence or two and will be tricked into thinking they're much warmer than they actually are. Again, read the reviews -- these AREN'T super warm.

Seems ok. Based on the reviews, this probably is a light to mid weight glove intended for spring / falls temps more than sub-30 degree windy winter days.
Here are some additional reviews:

The e-tip barely works on touchscreens. Even after increasing the screen sensitivity.

On $16 gloves? That's inexcusable

Maybe why they're on sale

The reviews people are leaving indicate otherwise, which makes more sense because of the open-type weave on these.

I stand corrected! I didn't see that in the mobile sized thumbnail, they looked like the usual nylon outer shell that you would wear skiing or trekking. Will edit, thanks for pointing that out.

Heading out to freezing temp terrain in a week. Anyone recommend gloves that work with touch screens ? (Will be out photographing) TIA
If it is truly cold and you are spending a fair amount of time, I'd look to a 2-piece system.

Heavy insulated outer glove (or mitten) with a liner inside. When you need dexterity/touch, slip out a hand from the main glove. Ideally the outer gloves have a wrist strap so you can just let them dangle.

Either buy a glove that comes that way, or DIY with a running/liner glove and a ski glove that's big enough to fit the liner comfortably.

Honestly, the Head ski gloves that costco sells this time of year for ~$20 are pretty good...and last time I was in a costco, they had thin touchscreen running gloves in the same aisle that would make a good liner. Only downside to this combo is that I think Costco has cheaped out and the adult ski gloves no longer come with a wrist strap (the kids ones do though).

I don't necessarily agree. I have a similar NF glove with e-tip technology and it works fine. The only time it doesn't work is if my finger is touching the screen at a obtuse angle vs using the pad of the finger.

Not the entire finger area is covered with e-tip 'fabric' so its inevitable I guess. It only struggles in certain instances when I'm trying to use the phone 1 handed. Anytime I use 2 hands, I never have a problem with e-tip. I've tried with both an Apple device as well as an LG Android.

Maybe worth editing your original post for accuracy... hate when mobile sites aren't as accurate as desktop versions. Had that issue many times!

Couldn't have explained it in terms of most relate to. With that being said does anyone know of a nice WARM gloves for that 30° temp that's waterproof/resistant that I could use out on the boat ?
