Ice Armour Gloves

[Jimmy from Cottage Grove]

Has anyone used the ice armour gloves?

[Vex]

Yes sir... and they are by far the best gloves I have ever had. dam near too warm! Not thick and bulky either.

Way worth the extra money, you'll never suffer from cold hands again!!!

I got a pair and i love them. Not only are they warm but they are super dry. I havent had my hands get wet yet since i've had them

Do you guys own the gloves or the choppers? I own the choppers and love them. I use them for every cold weather hobby i have to keep my hands warm. One thing about the choppers is that they are a little too bulky to fish with. However they are by far the warmest choppers I have ever owned. And being waterproof is key!

I just got the choppers for Christmas, haven't used them yet, but boy they seem warm in the little time I have worn them (down to the ice rink with the kids, etc)

i have the gloves and love em, i bought a pair for my girlfriend also and just last night both my dogs unlatched thier kennel in the garage and attacked her pair that was on the work bench and distroyed them, she loves the gloves so much that im going to buy another(third) pair tonight

if you ever use them to take a fish off like her keep'em away from the dogs

I had 2 pairs of those original Ice armour gloves just plain come apart on me. First set I figured was perhaps a fluke so I swapped for another pair. Second pair came apart at the seams right away again so I took a refund. Those gloves are absolute junk in my book.

This season I checked those Ice Armour X gloves real good at a local shop, them 40 dollar ones, and they seemed like a good set of gloves. I reluctantly bought a pair as I still had a bad taste from them highly touted originals. Happy to report these gloves are holding up, they're plenty warm and the waterproof integrity is holding up. Only 2 complaints.. 1 is the palm material absorbs water and metal things like to stick to 'em when you set things down.. A problem I can live with. The other is they don't really breathe and let perspiration out so my hands have gotten sweaty now and then, but they still stay warm. The X gloves are a winner and I would reccomend these to anyone.

I own both the Ice Armour and Ice Armour X. Love em both. I use the original when I am actually fishing and the X for cutting holes, pulling out, setting up, etc. The X are much bulkier than the originals so I don't usually use them when actually fishing. Both are great IMHO.

I picked up a pair and have used them on my last couple of trips. As others have stated, they keep you warm and dry. My hands do sweat a bit in them and they don't breathe really well, so I have to make sure they're dry on the inside before the next trip. All in all a good set of gloves so far.

I got the ice armor choppers as a gift and I don't think they're all that warm, but they definitely are waterproof. While tearing down the portable in the dark, I stepped in a 10" hole and wound up sticking my arm into the hole next to it before I could get up (talk about a sight!), but I was saved plenty of misery by the long gaiter over my parka sleeve and the waterproof mitt material.

I have both kinds of chopper gloves. I have the original and X series. I must say I like the X series better for two reasons. First, the nylon on the back of the glove doesn't absorb any water. That means it won't become a block of ice like the orignals can. Second, I like this one, they have a little pounch for a hand warmer on top. That works very well and warms your hands up on those extra cold days.

I just got the originals for xmas and am impressed so far. I believe either choice would be good, but i would bet the X series are worth the $10 more.

I got the original gloves last year for Christmas, and I love 'em. I can ram my hand down a hole, and the hands stay warm and dry. Plus they aren't bulky either, so I can fish with them on. I've recommended them to a lot of people I know.
