Buy Youngstown Glove Co. 05-3430-80-L Waterproof Gauntlet XT Performance Glove Large, Black


Pros
- Glove sizes are accurate, maybe slightly on the tight side
- Good for bad weather down to 20 degrees F or so
- Drawstring around cuff keeps snow out nicely
- Good flexibility and grip
Cons
- Not as warm as I thought they'd be. Extended use in 10 degree F didn't keep fingers warm
- Not waterproof as stated. I'd call them "weather proof" instead. Extended use in cold, slushy snow conditions eventually soaked through to hands. Will keep hands warm and dry for a number of hours though.
- Sides and back of fingers is made of very rough material, not suitable for wiping snow off glasses or scratching your nose. Other gloves I've used have soft material in this area for that purpose.Get more detail about Youngstown Glove Co. 05-3430-80-L Waterproof Gauntlet XT Performance Glove Large, Black.
