I wanted to believe the reviews from people who talked about how effective these gloves were in the cold. Unfortunately, I should have believed those who said they didn’t do anything for keeping hands warm in cold weather. This was my family’s experience. All four of us gave them thumbs down for cold protection. Even in temps in the 30s the cold was immediately noticeable. In the 20s? Forget it - nearly worthless.

Good gloves for weather above 35 or so or short exposure outside. Otherwise, buy something heavier with thermal lining. In retrospect I could have figured this out by looking at the materials used.

Not so comfortable to wear

I liked the feeling of the soft-shell material and liner -- the glove fits well and is comfortable. But the first time i wore them was a chilly (30ºF) morning commute. Almost immediately my hands felt cold, but i wasn't worried until they got all clammy and sweaty -- the exact opposite of the way most soft shells feel -- the main reason i'm a softshell fan-boy: Breathability. I never really gave much thought to breathability of handwear, but after this experience i can say that it's a key quality to staying comfortable (not necessarily warm, which can lead to perspiration) and dry. Without the membrane, these would probably be a great piece of clothing, but they are not insulated enough for the kind of temps where you start to think about wanting a vapor-barrier. I hope this helps!

I used them in a hiking trip in the low 30s F and they worked out pretty good. The gloves are pretty confortable.

Awesome light weight glove. Warmed my hands right up which I didn't really expect based on their weight. Using my phone was great too.

I ordered a medium and they fit around my fingers and hand very nicely. The problem is trying to get my hand in through the bottom that has been designed to be skin tight just below your wrist. He fabric doesn't have any give to it so it's a struggle to actually get the glove on unless you have tiny skinny hands.

They are true to the size, soft and warm. I'm very happy with them.

1) these are warm, soft and awesome snow gloves. They are warm with fleece lining and not bulky at all (I can use my iPhone and juggle my keys just fine) 2) said iPhone use is AMAZING with the tips having the ability to use touch screens and lastly 3) the rubber grips on the palms are AWESOME! They are perfect for driving in the snow to grip the steering wheel while keeping my fingers warm and the same goes for my ski poles, no more twisting in my hands :) highly recommend, and N. Face gloves for that price? Let's get real! What a deal.

I wanted something a little bulkier and warmer than the other etips I own, something I could shovel the walks in and not feel the cold. These do the job. I don't think I would wear them for much more unless I layered them. Anything below 15 degrees I can feel the chill easily.

Gloves are not too bulky, and are very warm. Have been wearing them in approximately 20 degree weather thus far and they have been very warm.

Being able to use the touch screen on my phone is nice, but still somewhat difficult. Only good for basic functions like unlocking, making calls.

The e-tips are sooo cool you don't have to take your gloves off to use your phone anymore!! Nice light duty glove. Fit is nice true to size.
