Polypropylene glove liner or the polartec powerdry high efficiency mitts in combo with MLD eVent mitts is what i have and would use for above conditions.

I imagine thicker, well felted (often boiled), and well soaked in lanolin wool gloves would work pretty well too.

Lot's o' choices see.

I like wool gloves, they stay reasonably warm while wet. The fox river ragg wool fingerless gloves are my favorite.

I've been looking at this combo:

Marmot Midweight Baselayer Gloves (0.8oz) – to replace the liners of the pair below

Outdoor Research Versaliner Gloves (0.8oz for the shells) – just for the waterproof shells

MLD e-Vent Rain Mitts!

So light, you'll forget you brought them.

I have a pair of MLD eVent mitts. The fabric is quite light and strong. But the seams are not waterproof. I tried sealing these seams and found it quite difficult. Thus, mine are no where near waterproof. Also know, because of the design and cut these are not form fitting. I was caught in an early snow storm / rain shower / blizzard where I need my MLD eVent mitts to be waterproof. They were not. I will not rely on them again to keep my hands anywhere near dry. Others may love them but not me. Now, I have several other MLD products and thing they are of the finest quality and materials. MLD is a great company but this product is not worth the $45 IMO.

Is the Bison down kind of like Qiviut?

"Is the Bison down kind of like Qiviut?"

It's supposed to be, yes. Warmer than wool, etc. etc. Can only tell you I love mine – soft and warm.

Thank you for the answer. Might check them out someday.

I find flip top fingerless gloves to be a good hand insulation system for me, especially in wet weather, and especially for applications like backpacking where you don't need to use your hands much, but when you do, you usually need the dexterity of bare fingers. This flip top crab mitt designs seems to be a good compromise between dexterity and warmth.

I like this style of glove in a fleece material, but I'm sure wool would work well too.

[Justin Baker]

Are you talking about glomitts?

[Brad Rogers]

I have found the Extremities Tuff Bags to be better then the MLD eVent Mitts. I would have rather had the Haglofs Gram Shell, but I couldnt find any for sale when I needed them. If I were buying today, I think I might try the WPB mitts from Lukes Ultralight.

I'd wear wool glove liners in those conditions.
