SKYDEERDurable Winter Work Gloves with Full Deerskin Suede Leather for Extreme Cold Condition (SD8676T)

I tried a dozen different gloves and ONLY these keep my hands warm in wet and cold bike rides in the mountains!Seriously the warmest ever so glad I found them.Edit to add: These Gloves are Great! Hard use and still holding up, super warm. I would get another pair but I won’t need them, these are hardcore gloves that will survive the apocalypse and my right hand that has bad Rynauds will be nice and warm and dry!Bonus, if you have to take your mit off to work on something sticking it back in these gloves not only warms them up but dries them off, you won’t get that with synthetic materials.

These are the warmest, softest mittens I’ve ever had. I use them for all my winter projects. Very pliable. Great for snowblowein.

These are so much better than gloves for mucking stalls and handling hay bales in the morning. My fingers were freezing even with hand warmers in my gloves, but no warmers required with these. Tough deerskin exterior with nice cuffs for keeping out the cold and they're water resistant so emptying water buckets isn'ta problem if I spill on my hands. I don't have to remove these anymore than my work gloves when it comes to opening gates, etc. I'm extremely happy with these mittens.

Ordered both the mittens and gloves.The Mittens:The mittens are soft suede leather outers, with polyester pile inner. The wrist elastic seals out any wind well past the wrist because the lower part of the mitten extends a bit up the arm. Insides are warm and there's room for the fingers to wiggle to help circulation and shared heat. They are sewn in a way that gives them a bit of a natural curl inward which is how your hands would normally be if left hanging at your sides.The only negative is that they feature a clasp to keep them hooked together when not in use. This is basically useless as it's very small, hard to open, and cheap plastic. In fact, the pair I got only had a 'D' ring on one mitten only. Not a big deal as I wouldn't use that anyhow. But the one mitten that does have it, you can tell it's cheap plastic and would likely break if used. For that, I have to take a star away.The Gloves:The gloves are similarly made but they don't have elastic around the wrists. Too bad as it's needed. For working outside in the cold weather, these seem to be acceptable. But they would not be good for any activity where your hands might be 'in' snow (sledding, skiing, etc.). Your wrists will get wet, and then cold.They feature the same polyester pile insides. I usually take a 'large' size and these fit a bit snug around the fingers. The thumb was fine comparatively speaking. I'm guessing that as I wear them, they will compress down inside the fingers.Similar issue with the clasp. I thought it was also missing a D ring for the clasp but, in fact, it had broken off of the base that was sewn into the glove. So it was still attached to the clasp on the other glove. Again, I won't be using that feature so it's not a big deal. But if they go to the effort to add this, they'll need to redo the design and materials so that it's usable. Because if this is common, it's a complete failure on their part.I don't plan of being too rough with them so they should last. But time will tell and if they fail too soon, I'll update my review. But in the meantime, no news is good news.

Awesome mitts!

I am a Wisconsin girl who went to University of Wisconsin in the 70s. I still have my worn deerskin mittens from that time and have been wearing them since on my farm. Time for new ones. I did not expect to find mittens of the quality I have had for 50 years, but these are gorgeous. Very well made, soft, warm and fit true to size. Do go by the measurements in the chart provided and measure your hands. The Norwegians have a saying: "there is no bad weather, only bad clothes." These mittens will not disappoint and will be a part of your "good clothes". I love them.

lite color gets stained----

Mittens are comfortable and like wearing an oven mitten. I bought them with the idea of having a very warm mitten on very cold ski days. I was very disappointed in how they really are not very warm.
