Best cold weather gloves?

[Diago]

I have poor circulation in my hands and need good gloves for an upcoming trip to Alaska. Any recommendations? I have tried the ice armor series and still have cold fingers.

Cabelas Gore-Tex Pinnacle gloves are the best gloves I have found. If it is well below zero I take a spare pair and stick them inside my bibs. If my fingers get chilly I just switch them out so I'm putting my hands into a preheated pair of gloves. They are very spendy but almost always go on sale at some point. I got a couple pairs for under $30.00 a few years back.

Mitten are obviously the warmest way to go, but for gloves these things are hard to beat.

I have owned alot of finger gloves and mitt's.

Hands down the best I have ever owned by far are the Sno Suit model's.

I have fished on Rainy Lake when it was -30 with a 15mph wind and rode on my sled for miles and my hands or fingers never got cold.

The mitt's are warmer than the finger gloves in sub zero temps.

Honestly, no bragging, I have to believe they would keep anyone's hands warm in almost any temps.

I have had Ice Armour and the rst and they simply do not hold a candle to the Sno Suit mitt's. Cost, probably $60 or a tad more but they are very warm.

Warmest gloves I have found are the Joka polar gloves and mittens. They are two piece with a removable liner. I have a few pair of the IA gloves, they are good for about a month before they fall apart

Like anything else it's what you want to do with them and how much you want to spend. For ice fishing on a sled I have a pair of choppers that are big so I can get my hands in and out of them fast and for sledding I have a pair of FXR Racing/Fuel finger Gloves which cost a lot more, but help when you need to signal how many riders you are riding with to others on the trail.

I will second Harvey Lee on the SnoSuit FXE model for gloves. They are great if your hands aren't super cold or super wet. Once that happens, they take a while to warm up. Ran into that during deer hunting and fishing yesterday. Mitts would be way better here. Nice big cuff, easy to get on/off and the fingers don't get all screwed up if you have wet hands. Was dipping glove in water yesterday to fill minnow bucket and they didn't get wet inside.

Overall the best gloves I have used, and my hands get cold really easy.

Yes, Mogo, the long cuff is nice as one can pull the draw string and get the cuff snug as you want on your wrist so if you are snowmobiling, no snow dust will get under the edge of your gloves or mitt's.

I found a pair of gloves at the bait store that they were selling for $20, that they were giving to people who donated their deer hides. No name on the glove, their camo with thinsulate. They only had them in extra large which fit me fine. They are a little bulky but their warm. I tied them once then went back to geo another pair. One thing you don't want are gloves that fit tight.

Also I've seen some kind of cuff that holds a hand warmer on the under side of your wrist. The purpose is to warm the blood as it goes into your hands. Wanted to try it but never have.

I have the fingerless wool, then I keep a pair of choppers in my pockets but rarely use them. I missed a few fish because of clumsy gloves and won't let that happen again. I have big choppers so I can just slide my hands in without taking off the fingerless.

I've used the Sno-Suit mittens in -30 riding a snowmobile to the fishing spots. Hands never got cold. These things are the real deal.

Normally, I wear a pair of jersey gloves and chopper mitts and I'm fine.

I also have a pair of arctic armor gloves. Wore them a couple times and they are horrible.

I fished with a guy that washed windows on skyscrapers for a living (during the winter) and he recommended these as well. I still use loose fitting choppers.

I remember when I borrowed you my Sno Suit mitt's on that trip to Rainy Lake a few years back. That was the coldest temps ever for me ice fishing and then 3 plus days of it.

X5 for the Frabil snosuit gloves...hands down way better than ice armor gloves..I got the fxe task gloves and the mittens, both are awesome..

[Hawg]

So its the task force you guys are recommending, not the gauntlet style? The task force are that warm?

I would agree with Harvey Lee that the SnoSuit mittens are warmer than the gloves at real low temps. At least that is what I found, having bad circulation in my hands. BUT, the SnoSuit gloves are the best gloves I've found, although my son has the Cabelas Pinnacles-also nice, warm gloves. Nothing worse than frozen, burning fingers when fishing.
