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.

They are thinner than other gloves. I would say they don't keep you very warm at that temp. They still keep your hands warm just not as well as other thicker gloves.

I Would Go With The 11. Keep In Mind These Are Supposed To Be Snug. They Are Not Meant To A Bulky Snow Mitten. They Are Snug To Allow For Great Dexterity. Waterproof. Best Glove I Have Ever Owned. Our Whole Family Has Them now.

These gloves are really good for speeds up to 25 mph for me because thats when the wind chill starts to cancel out the warmth from friction. What I would do is put one of those lunch serving gloves over each and the wind and water wont get in. They're super durable and last quite a while under every kind of stress as long as you don't carelessly slice up the palm, I think of the sinthetic leather like I think of my own skin when I have them on and I've had mine for 10 months almost and the're in pretty good shape still. Good grip on metal and smooth surfaces like glass and paint, highly resistant to abrasions so in those hopefully rare instances when you find yourself flying through the air, you don't have to worry about your hands being scraped when you go to use them to break your fling. And you could grab sharp or extremely hot tor cold objects in an emergency for several seconds with no damage to your hands, though I would recommend removing them immediately if we're talkin about hot because the heat tfrom the gloves will keep radiating to your hands from the palms after you've let go of said hot object. The neoprene is good for the warmth at high speeds in my experience (going 60 in the morning downhill on the highway, the backs of my hands were'nt numb).

Unsure about specific question. Would suggest contacting company making this glove from the information on the details of the item description.

The gloves do breathe, but overall your hands will be warmer - if your palms get hot already, I imagine wearing gloves would only make it worse, unless for some reason the heat is coming from the steering wheel, in which case they might provide some minimal insulation.

Absolutely. They fit snug, I don't really want loose gloves. They have a lot of friction and recover very quickly if they get dirt or water on them. Would definitely buy them again.

for driving gloves, in my opinion, you'd want a snug fit in its entirety ...you should be as comfortable w/the glove as you are while driving w/them on ...if you are not, i'd say return'em ...they are superb driving gloves, so check the sizing guide again, remeasure ...reorder.

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

These gloves will definitely keep you hands dry and warm. If you need to take your gloves on and off I would not recommend these. They are a snug fit which they are suppose to be- they would not be easy to take on and off. Also, if you need to have total movement during lobster fishing these gloves are a bit thick to give your fingers free movement- a bit stiff. I use them to feed and water horses in the winter months, they work well for that purpose.

They are made of a thin neoprene composite. They are meant as warm weather gloves. Standing in street they would help but not as riding gloves

it all depends what you consider 'warm' ... living in the midwest and dealing with horses etc. etc. ... they hold up well down to about 10 degrees and no wind ... beyond that ... even with a silk liner glove and working ... NO ...

Hi Kathleen, My apologies for the late reply as it was a busy weekend! Mechanix compared to other gloves is mainly a matter of choice. They are priced well and they are durable.;-)

Leah, i don't think these gloves would help you. i bought them so my brother could continue to have movement and warmth at the same time. i would probably go for a brace. hope that helps.

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.

These aren't really for cold weather but SSG makes the same glove in a winter thermal.

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.
