A disappointment
By Whites HikerVerified Reviewer from Massachusetts on 3/18/2008
Sizing:
Feels true to size
Pros:
Dries Easily
Cons:
Wears Out Quickly
Best Uses:
Backcountry

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

After the second wearing, I will be returning the liners as they are showing excessive wear (after 7 hours of use). The fingers have many pulls and pulled threads (one 2 inches long). The fabric catches and pulls if it happens to touch velcro or anything else that is rough, and there certainly is velcro on my winter hiking gear. By contrast, my old EMS liners, which are 5-6 years old (and used continuously), appear to be in better shape! The new liners are a real disappointment.

frayed really easily when doing simple things, and the logo came off on the first day of usage. I used them with some EMS summit mitts and over all they got the job done, but when they got wet, it was hard to dry them off quickly

Different than those purchased before
By SefrankelVerified Reviewer from Portland, Maine on 2/10/2008
Sizing:
Feels true to size
Pros:
Dries Easily, Durable, Warm, Water Resistant
Cons:
Doesn't fit hands well, Odd fit between fingers
Best Uses:
Excellent layering
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Gear Usage:
Cold Weather Living, Winter Sports
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

In general I like the gloves, but I've purchased pairs in the past that fit better for some reason. Again, I'm not sure why, but the most recent pair I bought didn't fit my hands well, in particular between the fingers there is an uncomfortable tightness. Still a fine product, and it could just be my hands. Are y'all stitching them differently than in the past or something?

Eastern Mountain Sports Response:Huh...sounds like a defective pair of gloves to us. Please call us in customer service @ 888.463.6367, check out our website www.ems.com, or visit one of our EMS Retail locations if we can assist you in any way.

I bought the gloves for my daughter who needed them for her cold-weather runs. She says they are great.

 
Snaggable
By Mike the NorsemanVerified Reviewer from Northen Minnesota on 2/4/2008
Sizing:
Feels true to size
Pros:
Dries Easily, Warm
Cons:
Wears Out Quickly
Best Uses:
Backcountry, Cross Country, Fishing, Snowmobiling
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Gear Usage:
Cold Weather Living, Winter Sports
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I use these gloves under other mittens/gloves, so when dealing with details needing fingers in cold weather I don't totally freeze up. My layers of clothing, including boots and gloves, include valcro, and in two wearings these mitts have become snagged and balled, unattractive and close-to-unusable.

 
Good Product, a little hard to size
By Sprite from Chicago, IL on 1/29/2008
Sizing:
Feels too large
Pros:
Good Grip, Snug Fit
Cons:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I didn't get to take this product on my last trip because I ordered the wrong size. I think the sizing for this glove is a little confusing. It was suggested I order a medium, even though they are listed as men's gloves and since I am female I thought they might be big. When I received them, they did seem a little big. More importantly, the wrists are the same material as the glove (no extra stretch or elastic). My size in women's gloves is a small, but I have really small wrists. I ordered the extra small in exchange, but I am not sure they are not too small, although the wrists fit. I am considering whether I should exchange them again or not. They look very nice otherwise. I guess my comment would be to be aware there is no extra stretch fabric or elastic at the wrists. Maybe this won't matter to you, but if you are a long fingered small wrist type it could make a difference.

cool for the winter

Cons:
Not Warm
Describe Yourself:

Gear Usage:

It's not a glove for extremely cold temperatures but it does a good job of keeping sweat away from the hands and it doesn't get bulky like cotton gloves.

 
Very thin yet still retains heat.
By MACVerified Reviewer from NJ on 1/7/2008
Sizing:
Feels true to size
Pros:
Dries Easily, Warm
Cons:
Snags easily
Best Uses:
Backcountry, Casual Wear, Cross Country, Downhill, Freestyle
Describe Yourself:
Advanced
Gear Usage:
Cold Weather Living, Mountain Biking, Winter Sports
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is thin enough to wear under my usual size biking gloves. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it retained heat. The only downside is that the material snags easily so I only wear it as a liner.

I use this glove in the winter as a liner under winter gloves and by themselves in the fall while walking. This is my third pair...I love them! I buy a new pair every year.

These are superior gloves!!
By Dennis from Cheyenne, Wyoming on 11/23/2007
Sizing:
Feels true to size
Pros:
Dries Easily, Durable, Good alone for cold wear, Good Grip, Snug Fit, Warm
Best Uses:
Backcountry, Outdoor Work
Describe Yourself:

Gear Usage:
Cold Weather Living, Winter Land Surveying
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I use these gloves alone in cold winter weather to operate the keyboard on survey grade GPS and other surveying equipment. They offer very good cold weather protection alone, or even better as a glove liner. I keep buying them, however, the people I work with think they need them more than I do......
