Gloves in Cold Weather
 

The last time I went out this past seasonit was VERY COLD, atleast -20 celseus,I has moving my fingers around in my gloves the whole day, do any of you guys know what some of the warmest gloves are for cold weather?

I use mittens so my fingers are together and not separated, never really have a problem! The mittens I use are the kind where you can fold the finger part back so you can use your fingers freely if needed! If it gets really cold I slip the hand warmers in the finger section! Works like a charm! I wouldn't use the hand warmer unless it really cold or your hands will sweat then you hating life!

What I do which may or may not work for you is the following:
Polyproplene (thin blue gloves - Helly Hansen)
Wool/thinsulate fingerless gloves with the flip over Mitt portion
Hot hands in the mitt portion ( It seems the length of use varies now greatly with the Hot Handsso I make sure I have enough to change every couple hours JIC)

If sitting in a blind the hand muff that attach around your waste(like you see football players wearing)also add extra warmth.

If extremely cold I break out the Trapper Mitts (some call them skidoo mitts - but the ones with the snot pad on the back). I wear the polyproplene under to prevent an skin contact on metal for obvious reasons at such temps:D.

If I am bow or gun hunting in extreme cold weather, I use fairly light weight gloves, and wear my hand muff with about 5 hand warmers shoved inside of it. Nice and toasty!!!

I use a very thin set of comfortable thinsulate gloves all year. When it is cold I'll put a warmer, oversized pair of wool mittens over them that fold over to expose fingers. A hand warmer pouch helps too.

Also, if you hands and feet are cold it could be a associated with not properly dressing the rest of your body. If your core temp drops, your body will start limiting blood flow to your arms and legs. Get a good hat, cover-all's, warm socks and boots. Another thing I do is bring empty carbs like M&M's. It's like throwing a log on the fire!

Good luck,

I'm with moosehunter3o. I use the same thing when it is real cold -30. I usually hate wearing any type of gloves or mits at all but have been accustomed to using a thinsulate hand muff for the last couple of years. Putting in a warmer makes the muff real warm.

i wear a pair of USMC Manzella stretch glovesand putsmall hand warmers in the palms or on the back of the hands. Works great for me.

I do exactly the same. Thats the best that works for me.

100% wool mittens with the fold back ends. If you wear gloves made of dense material such as cow hid outers when they get cold they stay cold the rest of the day and you never get them warm again. With wool when your hands get cold it is possible to just put them in your pockets or one of those tube thingys you wear around your waste (totally blank on the correct term)with a hand warmer in it and you can warm your hands and the wool mittens up again.

Two words......ARCTIC SHIELD~!

In extreme cold weather I use Military issue mitts with a thin pair of gloves to prevent skin contact on metal as Skeeter mentioned. This has worked well for me...

RE: Gloves in Cold Weather
 

Either the U.S. Military cold weather mittscanvas and buckskin outers with wool linings with the trigger finger you can easily slip it in and out to stay warm and get ready for a shot. Or the fold back gromit rag wool knit mitts with Thinsulate lining sewn inside. I find both keep my fingers warm. And if you're walking/stalking the blood flow help.
Keeping warm core temp. is just even more important than warm feet and hands. If your core drops even a few degrees below normal your body will protect your internal organs and brain by restricting blood to your extremities. I like cold weather, but I like even more staying toasty warm in the cold!;)

chemical hand warmers in a ice breaker muff if it is really cold.
