Alti II GORE-TEX Mitten- Women's

Finally, really warm hands!

My wife recently got the Alti Mitts, she gets cold hands skiing in the Northeast. We were out a couple of weeks ago and she was toasty warm skiing all day. Thanks for such a great product, we have wasted so much money on what companies have called their warmest, they failed us, you didn't.

Warm hands

The mitts keep my hands and fingers WARM, huge success to finally find a pair that works in the cold temperatures. They are long, go over my jacket sleeves and keep the snow from getting inside. The liners stay in place, attached by Velcro without any interference. I give the 4 star when I use them while skiing because of the inability to grip objects, like ski poles. I have used them four times so far and hope they soften a bit more with use. They are great for walks and hikes.

Returned, too small.

Familiarity:

I returned this product before using it

Size Bought:

Womens L/8

Using the size chart I ordered these in a Women's L/8 but they were still a bit too short for my long fingers. They seemed like they would have been nice and warm if a bit bulky. I would have ordered the next size up (a Mens L/9) but I came across the OR Mt Baker II mitts with glove liners and ordered those to try instead, mostly because they have a wrist tightening strap that I would like to have.
