Glove of Choice-15f-35F?

How warm a certain glove is will depend heavily on personal and environmental conditions , so it’s hard to recommend specific gloves.

If you have warm hands, then the Hestra Ergogrip might be a good choice:

• Windproof and water resistant: Gore Windstopper/Infinium , thin brushed liner fabric.
• Reasonably durable: leather palm and fingertips
• grippy and dexterous: Ergogrip is great

If you want a cheaper option, my oldest child swears by the Hestra work gloves (these I think) layered over liner gloves, for winter biking and XC and alpine skiing.

Although not windproof, they seem to work pretty well, even in breezy weather, perhaps due to the various layers, and they breathe really well because of that.

I like the OR Versaliners. The fabric is fairly wind-resistant by itself, but they have Pertex Shield over-gloves. No leather on the palms, but mine don’t seem to show much wear. And you can put hand warmers into the little pockets on the back.

I will check those out, thanks.

Showa 282 (or the 282-02) in size XL or XXL. They run small.

Rip the liner out when it eventually packs down and continue with your own liners of choice. This is a superior performing glove for active wind and snow/wetness above 15°F for me. Below that I also carry mittens

Anything below ~ -5C (23F), I switch over to breathable fleece mitts with a flip top instead of gloves.  Those can take me down to -30C on the move.  There’s no substitute in warmth for having the fingers actually next to each other and not separated by material.  Mine are NLA, so no specific recommendation though.

Above -5C, winter runners gloves like these.  Keep moving to avoid frigid digits.  I never found a single pair that can cover 15F to 45F comfortably

Wear nitrile or latex gloves under whatever you choose. As a long time ice climber, I have found this very effective in helping keep my hands warm. The vapor barrier effect works well at low temperatures and prevents wetting your gloves out with perspiration from the inside out. I’m a big fan of Outdoor Research gloves, but gloves are a bit like shoes; everyone is different. I like the PL400 mittens with nitrile gloves, but YMMV. I also have some CAMP Gecko gloves that I like if I need greater dexterity than a mitten.

Agree about Showa 282-02. I cut out the liner immediately; it leaves more room for liners of my choice and allows the shells to roll up more compactly. As said, they run small. 282-02 are SLIGHTLY roomier than 282 after removing the liner.

For mittens, I have been happy with HotHands ski mitts. They are not remarkable other than their balance: 5oz, roll to about a liter, and are warmer than gloves.

Not too thread drift.. but question about the nitrile gloves.  I assume you need multiple pairs?  Or just keep re using 1 pair? Aren’t they apita to remove and get back on??

I find smartwool liners or any thin wool liner is good with something like zpacks overmitts if its cold and windy, raining or snowing.. for hiking.  Most of the time after a mile or so I get heated up and my hands dont really get cold until I stop ( for a while ).  I do have thicker and heavier gloves and mittens for around camp,  but rarely,  do I need them while hiking.

Would be great to have sensor type glove for phone usage without taking the glove off. Many over gloves don’t have this.

Rab also has wind resistant gloves for still colder temps. Note that the above glove allows for phone use.

@jscott those look great. Thank you.

Just got a pair of the Showa, man they are ugly!

nitrile gloves break frequently, I would bring a pair a day minimum

I’m a big fan of the Showa gloves, both with gauntlet and without. Great for skiing on wet days, cheap, and in a lovely Smurf blue too. They do run at least a size small, and have shortish fingers

Dirtbag, yes, nitrile gloves are difficult to put on when they are wet, so you will want at least one spare pair that can be drying inside-out while you are wearing another pair. Maybe more. Luckily they are light.

I like 9 mil nitrile gloves from Harbor Freight. They are a little tougher than typical nitrile exam gloves.

That said, I tend to carry them more for “in case I need them” rather than for everyday wear. I just don’t like VBLs except when I really need them.

I typically take a pair a day and just wear them all day. They’re kinda crummy for all-day use, but cold hands and soggy gloves are worse. Ever heard of the “Screaming Barfies”? It’s not a fun thing. Another ice-climber trick is to stow your “warm” gloves inside your coat for when you’re not moving as much. While you’re moving and generating decent heat, wear a lighter pair of gloves and change them out  for the warmer ones when you’re less active. I know this is Backpacking LIGHT and multiple pairs of gloves is not the lightest option, but it’s by far the best option I’ve found for keeping my hands warm and dry all day, day after day. Again, YMMV.

Brad, to clarify, you are looking for a glove for 15 F to 45 F right?
the titel kind of looks like -15 F …

Just saw MHW has a sale on these Windstopper (infinium) gloves. Uninsulated, so size up and wear them over your OR fleece gloves.

Nice modular system that breathes well, and if the outers get wet, you can dry the, separately.

Or, the Showa gloves, like Nunatak mentions. Gauntlet is nice for snow or rain. Waterproof. No touch screen.

Large GTX shells and DACHSTEIN boiled wool liners.

Never heard of DACHSTEIN?  They are made in Austria. They make THE warmest mitten  and glove liners. I used the mitten liners under nylon shells at -40 F. and my hands were warm!

Those boiled mittens look nice.

I got a pair of REI minimalist shell mittens(gift card) and tried them over my OR PL400’s at 27F. They took my cold hands to decent in about 15 – 20 minutes of moderate output-using hiking poles. Stinks to lose dexterity but for minimal weight these might do the trick.
