Review on Warm Winter Convertible Gloves: Flip Top Mittens for Texting, Photographing, and Running - Men and Women by Robert Farrar

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for cold weather running

I need something for cold weather running hands. A few weeks ago I ran 14 miles at an average pace of 20 with cheap gloves I found in my closet. By mile 8 my fingers were numb from the cold. So I decided I needed something else. The price for these mittens was right and I tried them on. You were amazing. I start with the tabs of the mittens on my fingers and as I warm up I pull them off and fold them back. When my fingers feel cold again, I cover them again. The last two runs were 5 miles in 15 to 18 degrees Fahrenheit. My fingers were never too hot and never too cold. I covered and opened them with the mitten flap as needed and felt comfortable the whole time. I had no problems opening the thumb hole as some have reported. I thought I'd have to get some more durable mittens for colder times, but now I'm sure that won't be necessary.

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
