Review on Manzella Gloves Oxford Heather Medium by Donald Cummings

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Great lightweight gloves that have lasted a few seasons

Post update: I think this is my second or third season of wearing these gloves and I really like them. They're thin, but that's how they're designed, and you can buy thicker gloves if you want. It appears to be a fleece fabric and I find the fleece surprisingly warm. Being thin, they offer more dexterity for things you frequently need to do on a walk: unfasten/fasten a jacket, pull a cell phone out of a small pocket, undo/fasten a clasp on a dog leash, etc. They also breathe fairly well . because they are thinner, which prevents moisture from building up in the glove and then cooling it down like my thicker gloves. I find these gloves to be good on their own in temperatures of 25-30 degrees, at which point I may use a heavier glove depending on what I'm doing. But if I can keep my hands in my jacket pockets most of the time, these are still sufficient. Sometimes I throw on a thicker fleece glove which keeps them really warm in very cold weather. My last pair disappeared so I went back to buy another pair. As with many Revain products, the price fluctuates, so I choose when to buy them. Great lightweight gloves that have lasted a few seasons. I wear them every morning in cold weather and they feel great. When my hands get cold, I put them in my pockets. I was planning to buy a second pair as a backup as my wife also likes to wear them and I know she will lose them.

Pros
  • Men's
Cons
  • Good mostly but...
