Sticky Second Skin
By MikeVerified Reviewer from Dayton, OH on 2/14/2006
Pros:
Compact, Lightweight
Best Uses:
Ice and Drytooling

Used these at Ouray this year as a demo, and kept them for 2 full days. Very sticky palms, great for leashless tools. These gloves are not warm. Wear them for the climb, and then put on your belaying gloves. The palms are not much more than thin rubber and the backs are thin and not very wind proof. Dexterity and stickiness are second to none. Once you put them on, fasten the velcro at the wrists, they are not going anywhere. I recommend trying these on before you buy them. They are designed to fit tight.

 
not quite wind resistant
By AaronVerified Purchaser from Boston, MA on 2/8/2006
Pros:
Compact, Lightweight, Tough
Cons:
poor wind-block
Best Uses:
Backpacking, Hiking

I've been using these when cycling in the city. my biggest issue is that the finger tips get very cold. Otherwise, these are great for keeping full use of my hands despite the cold.
