Comments about Marmot Andromeda Softshell Glove - Men's:

Excellent Gloves, windproof,water-resistant, and warm. Still have great dexterity with fingers and I am glad that there was a choice in my size---XXL. Most other companies only make XL as their largest size, which I find to be too tight and they cut off circulation or rip in the spaces between the fingers on the seams. These are well-made and appear prety durable. A great addition to a softshell jacket and fleece watch cap for long hours outdoors in cold weather.

Comments about Marmot Andromeda Softshell Glove - Men's:

Great Glove for being active in cold weather. I use it most as a backpacking Glove. I spend most of my time backpacking in late fall. I like it chilly. It was great keeping my hands dry and toasty in rain soaked camp and out on the trail.

Comments about Marmot Andromeda Softshell Glove - Men's:

These have become my go-to gloves for those chilly spring and fall days when I want to keep my hands warm without the need for my winter snow gloves. They keep my hands warm without a lot of weight/bulk.
These work well enough for gripping the trekking poles while hiking, and for holding onto the handlebars while mtn biking, but I wish the fingers were a little tackier.
I wouldn't want to use them for driving - just a bit too slippery on the steering wheel. I'll continue to use my driving gloves for that purpose.
