Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
The gloves are very warm, although this is my first pair of nice gloves for skiing (always used $[...] ski gloves that did the job but not the real deal). They are a bit roomy on the inside, but it's been a while since i wore mittens, so that might just be normal. The next size down was definitely too small, so I have the correct size. As for the wrist, i love how it goes over my jacket and then the drawstring closes tight. I also like the loops that you can loop up on your arm for when you take the glove off on the lift or something, then it just hangs on your wrist. Great mittens, would recommend to anyone!
