Good gloves, I'm deducting 1 star because the description says they work with thumb and index finger touchscreen devices and not touchscreens I've tried a Samsung Galaxy S7 phone and isn't very important for me because I'm not used to it and my phone is set to react when I press the button. Haven't had really cold weather but high 20's and low 30's, dexterity is better than many winter gloves (just will never be the same as non insulated gloves), fit is good, I wear 2x in other Mechanix gloves…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure

The size table is out. These 2XL gloves are a size L or XL at best. They don't stretch or stretch like regular Mechanix gloves. The material is thin. You look cool, that's all. They bring my hands together and cause me great pain. It's like wrapping tape around your hands and then leaving it there until I'm done with my work. Throbbing knuckles, aching fingers, paralyzed palms. yes no thanks Oh, but they look cool.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • There are shortcomings

Highly recommended. Excellent insulation and relatively good wet protection. However when I get my next pair I will go down a size. I usually wear medium sized gloves and with all other glove styles they fit perfectly. This time I will go with the little one. I don't know how it works, but they're a little longer than a finger, which makes small tasks a little more awkward. But for what I do, they'll be a lifesaver in the winter. In terms of durability, I'm sure they'll outlive most other pairs

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Not the warmest if you're just sitting, but if you're active they're quite comfortable to wear. I took them with me when I volunteered in the Purdue Outing Club Adventure Race. Ten hours in the southern Indiana woods but my fingers stayed dry and dry chopping wood. I had to change gloves when just sitting around as they don't have the insulation that other gloves have, but the dexterity when active is top notch.

Pros
  • understandable even for old people
Cons
  • Good, but not great

Agile and grippy, but not that cold below freezing.

Gloves arrived from Revain warehouse two days later. The large gloves fit as expected, I have medium sized hands but long fingers and always order large gloves. Gloves are surprisingly damaging and touchscreen compatible. I am a manual wheelchair user and they hold up the rims well (however the real test is wear and that will tell over the next 6 months). Cons: Gloves didn't keep my fingers warm in sub-zero temperatures, which is disappointing, but anything related to the 38F was acceptable…

Pros
  • Nicely
Cons
  • No form required

Warm, waterproof, durable!

I bought this as a gift for a landscaper friend. He has HUGE hands so I went the largest size and they fit great. He said they definitely keep his hands warm and he recently tested them on a rainy day and was amazed at how they keep his hands dry. He has a Galaxy phone and said the touchscreen compatibility works. He doesn't use them every day, but they held up when he used them. He recently threw them in the washing machine and they came out fine. Put them in the dryer or tumble dry and…

Pros
  • Useful for more than its intended purpose
Cons
  • I have no particular complaints about it, everything is fine
