Mountain Equipment Guide GTX

These winter gloves feature a Gore-Tex waterproof lining; elasticated wrist and drawcord cuff; nose wipe; polyester pile lining; stretch fabric on back of hand for closer fit; reinforced palm; exceptionally close fit; wrist leash; narrow cuff fits under jacket sleeves easily. But the fit was too close for me, making them difficult to get on and reducing ease of movement.

Verdict: Buy it if you find the fit is okay as that is the main drawback.

Paid £35 for these in Go Outdoors (they didn't have the Outdoor Equipments I was after). Used them in a variety of wet/snowy conditions and they just don't do the job. Met someone on t'Ben the last Wednesday who had the same gloves and agreed - not enough insulation. Virtually no waterproofing. Rubbish.
