Pulling my hair out for gloves

[Danehunter]

For really cold weather:
1. WPB (WaterProof Breathable) shells like Gore-Tex, etc.
2. removable liners (so you can exchange them for heavier or lighter liners as needed)

->Wash once or twice a year, as needed
->Spray with Grangers or Revivex water resistant DWR (Durable Water Resistant) spray after washing and drying

So I was out in colder than expected conditions over the weekend. 26 when we got out of the truck and I don't think it was ever warmer than 50 in full sun while we were up high. Windy on the west side of the ridge, fairly comfortable on the east.

I had the carhart dex ii gloves, too thin and not at all wind resistant. They will be going in the tool box, not worth carrying.

I got a pair from amazon, Kim Yuan, for $15. They are "thinsulate" lined. They are very comfortable and quite warm. Only two days but they are nice. They do hold water but never got wet through.

I also ordered the give-r gloves. They actually bead water. The fingers are a little long, but I have short, fat, broken fingers so I am used to that. I like them a lot, feel much more rugged than the others. I did not get them until today so they will hunt with me this weekend.

I am definitely not the right person to give advice as I do not get cold easily. I use a pair of HydraHyde (https://www.amazon.com/HydraHyde-Weather-Water-Resistant-Wells-Lamont/dp/B00004X0XY/ref=sr_1_5?hvadid=77653061791810&hvbmt=be&hvdev=c&hvqmt=e&keywords=hydrahyde+gloves&qid=1579962823&sr=8-5) from North 40 for under $10 for hunting and ice-fishing ost of which below zero here in Montana.

For additional warmth, I use the standard military issue wool inserts. If I need more warmth, I used hand warmers on my palm, back of my hand, or both. If I still need additional warmth, I just stick my hands in my pocket. If I need more warmth, it is too cold to be outside.

Cheers!

For the warmest gloves you will have to PAY. Hestra ski gloves with removable liners are the warmest but pricey. ($100.++)
