I love these gloves. They're nice and toasty warm, which is good because my hands get pretty cold. They absorb a little water but I have yet to fel wet inside the glove. They're durable, but I'm already busting through my pinky seam due to ice climbing. I'd find other ice glolves (great belay gloves!). Great for all-around winter use. I might size down, the XL feels more like a L (which is perfect for me). Great gloves!

Having tried just about every glove out there to stay warm and dry, I finally went with Marmot expecting the best. I am not the least bit disappointed. Even the higher cost of the glove is worth it for fingers that don't ache at the end of long days outside in the mountains or really cold late night dog walking expeditions.
