The lattitude mitt definately has its pros and cons. Good lightweight shell with a solid glove liner. the liner offers good dexterity for clipping beaners, placeing gear, belaying etc. unfortunately neither the shell or the liner are well insulated. inadequate for serious subzero temps. -5 is probably the coldest i would be comfortable wearing this at. in general its a descent low elevation climbing glove.
