Inner gloves are too bulky for these gloves. I replaced the inner glove with a pair of Hardwear thin fleece gloves. Works really good. I used them recently on a route up Mt. Hood here in oregon ice climbing and hiking.
I really like the outer leather "shell", however the removable fleece liners are TOO TIGHT. They restrict finger movement and they can be tricky to reinsert.
If they made these gloves with a thinner liner that was sewn in, they would be perfect!
These gloves seemed good for ice climbing, but at a belay I took my hands out (leaving the liners on) to adjust gear and couldn't get them back in afterward. I had to ditch the liners and then just use the outer gloves. It would help if these things breathed better to more rapidly eliminate sweat.
Great for those days that do not demand the heaviest insulated gear and multiple layers. Precise grips, nice velcro straps, easy-on easy-off design make these Mountain Hardwear gloves another winning addition to your outdoor sports wardrobe.
