I dont dive I ride horses. I need a glove that would keep my hands warm and moveable in the very cold weather for riding.

I got these for barn work more than riding. Even if they had worked for barn work I wouldn't have used them for riding. They were bulky and a little stiff in the fingers. I don't remember the brand of gloves I use to ride but they are simple black with grips...good for cold but not wet riding.

My opinion they Didn't keep my hands warm and they get my hands wet I dont like

No good for that. These gloves are very thick and even underwater they are kind of hard to maneuver. Look into gloves with "thinsulation" I have some from Wilsons Leather and they're great.

I think they run small, but got a quite a bit larger size just in case and they are only slightly larger than my hands which is just what I wanted here in south central Florida where it's hot and humid. Too tight would be like soaking my hands in warm water. Great gloves, they are tough.

Their strongest selling point is not their warmth but their waterproofing. I work in the TV/Film business and it's true that on a below freezing day when I'm handling aluminum pipe they get cold pretty quickly, but when it's snowing/raining they can keep my hands dry for hours. So if cold is the only problem then these aren't the gloves for you but if you have to work in the wet, they are great and really do still give a decent grip even on wet slippery surfaces.

I've recently used these gloves in the mid 20s F and I could definitely feels a minor chill. Later had a cold spell of 8 F with wind chill and my hands were freezing in less than 5 minutes. This was in NYC weather. I just bought lightweight primaloft gloves which handles the same 8 F and with less expense.

I use these gloves to reach into my fish ponds during cold winter months. They are thick and designed to come up to midway between your elbow and shoulder with an elastic band covering them at that spot so that they stay up over your elbows and protect your shirt sleeves. They do grip well but I am not sure I would handle anything that required fine tune moves; their main attraction is that they come way up over my elbows to allow me to reach into very cold water

The gripping part is suede and the other in between is breathable. We live in Florida and the gloves work very well here.

They should work just fine, they are water proof as advertised. They are also made for tough work, the fingers have leather protecting from ware n tear and outer is a stretch material for easy movement. They are suppose to keep hands warm unfortunately like all gloves fingers will get cold!!

I think you'll be disappointed. While I loved the feel and fit, along with the zippered slot (on the newer versions of this glove), I was disappointed in it's ability to keep my hands warm. I was trying these gloves out when the temperarture was in the teens, and they just didn't cut it. The gloves might be OK for more moderates temps, but they didn't meet my needs for real bitter cold.I was much happier with Auclair Duck Down Gloves (Waterproof, Insulated) that I found at SierraTradingPost.com

They're not really winter gloves, they're single layer - faux suede palms and cloth back. I use them through the summer so If you're looking for heavier gloves SSG makes another style that is lined that you'd be better off with.

I first saw these gloves on the hands of a fellow passenger during a Bering Sea cruise I took last year. They provide excellent insulation from the wet and the cold. Since they are thick, there is not going to be fine dexterity or sensitivity with them, but you will be comfortable holding a pole in the cold.

They are probably thinner than what you are looking for. They aren't as thick as some cotton gloves that would keep your hands warm that I had when I was younger.

I have read Texcasters response and it tells you all you really need to know, except for the velcro closure patch which is large and holds very well.These gloves are very tight fitting and stiff,great for protection, but take time to limber up for movement. Use baby powder on them for your first 5 or 6 times to reduce the struggle of getting them on/off...a good protective glove.

They will not keep hands comfortably warm if exposed to 10-20 degree weather for more than 15 minutes. I bought them for my wife to use during her commute to and from work. There are stand alone stick on pads called digits that you can apple to any gloves that will do the same thing.

Absolutely not! This is one reason I have to have this kind of glove when doing yard work. They are perfect.

Temperature wise they would be good, but for fireplaces I prefer the longer traditional thick leather lined gloves. They defintely have higher temperature range, but your lower arm is a little exposed in fireplace scenario.

They're absolutely not good for anything below +10F. Your fingers will freeze in a hurry, and that's even if you're wearing an inner glove liner.
