I got Raynaud’s, a nasty condition where my fingers get bone white and utterly useless when cold. Even reaching into a store cooler can trigger this. I hate it. I am ALWAYS looking for hand wear.I even purchased some battery -powered for heat, very expensive gloves  years ago to try and mitigate the condition.  Went to doc too. Ya da ya da…..
So, I bought the EE Torrid Apex Mitts, matching my Torrid pull over. Â Hoping the mitts would help this horrid condition.
Well, they do not work well. OK, OK maybe me. But I find these really slippery, clumsy and hard to use. Shoot, I have to take one off to do anything! Â Really silly, stupid even.
I ditched them after two tries. They are not for me. Â Expensive too.
